Pros

-Great pay (Started at $43k, currently making $45.5k + OT) -Learn how to manage a location / branch -Managing assets and P&L -Fortune 500 company -Fantastic intro to sales if that's what you're looking for

Cons

On the rental side of the business there is really only one career path being sales. The large majority of people within the rental management program will relocate to different states to become account managers. A small portion can become location managers but the vast majority become account managers and then will either leave the company after a year or two in that role or promote into a lease salesperson.

Pros

You get to work on real supply chain problems that actually matter to operations, not just theoretical stuff. Remote flexibility is solid and the work-life balance is fair. The tech stack is modern (Snowflake, Azure, Power BI) and if you're someone who takes initiative, you'll get the chance to own things end-to-end. The people you work with day-to-day are genuinely good and most teams have a collaborative culture.

Cons

Growth from senior level and beyond can be painfully slow even when you're clearly doing the work above your role. Leadership and org changes happen often which resets your visibility and momentum with whoever is advocating for you. Some areas still lack clear ownership so things fall through the cracks or land on whoever is willing to pick them up. Pay doesn't always reflect the scope of what you're actually doing.
