Pros

Good compensation opportunities if you figure out how to play the game and stay out of managers' crosshairs

Cons

Upper management struggled to push people out of their ranks, and made up job performance issues. The staff were generally competent, but quick gave up trying to make meaningful improvements due to unsupportive sales management that dictated office culture. HR was a contractor who spent less than 18 hours a week working for a 300+ employee organization and refused to follow up on complaints from certain employees who were labeled "troublemakers". Sales management supported racially discriminatory attitudes by the field sales reps, and threatened my job on multiple occasions because system generated reports showed that they were misrepresenting sales figures.

Pros

Experienced marketing excellence generates qualified lead flow most of the time. Longtime, very competent installers. Good website. Best warranty. Shutter manufacturer (US) - not reseller. 40+ years. Longtime top salespeople. Many repeat clients.

Cons

High turnover at all levels of management. Up and down growth. Insufficient designer support. 100% commission job. Surprisingly frequent commissions errors.....slow to correct. Manufactures less expensive shutters for competitors in same locations...so you compete against yourself. High prices. Average delivery time. East Coast ownership is no longer in touch with Danmer's California local markets and doesn't offer competitive advantage.
