"Nordstrom separates itself from others in the industry by incorporating detailed, long lasting relationships with each of their customers. Employees are trained to complete outfits for the customer's occasion rather than sell one or two items. In other words, most of the sales staff act as a personal shopper to their customers. The staff also utilize a CRM system to send out promotional opportunities, thank you cards, call backs and appointment reminders."

Sales Representative at Patterson Dental Supply Co

Please give us a one liner to describe this review.

"If you are a professional sales person with a job - STAY AWAY!!!"

What do you like about working at Patterson Dental Supply Co?

"The corporate culture and training were great. A couple of the reps were very helpful."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"Be very, very careful. Make sure you get more than a 10 minute interview before accepting the job and interview them extensively! Ask about the turnover rate on new sales people and branch managers. Huge issue. Make sure you get some existing business (in writing) or you will struggle greatly. Not fun!!"

What don't you like about working at Patterson Dental Supply Co?

"Branches operate independently without much oversight from corporate so the culture is very different. They do not keep their promises and support from branch manger and seasoned reps is almost nonexistent. Would not recommend working for this company unless you bring the business with you. They claim to care about the offices they service; I was gone for 6 weeks and still received calls from doctors that did not know I was not their rep.."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Ensure corporate culture and philosophy is in place at ALL branch locations."
