Pros

Coworkers were awesome, always had someone on my team (on my level) who I could call and talk to.

Cons

-Drive times 4 hours plus from home, to unconfirmed appointments. -Management had poor communication skills. -Presentation is dishonest -Product price is incredibly inflated -Jobs will probably never install, so don't expect to get paid -If you leave the company they will not pay you any sort of back ends on your jobs -If you're a woman, you will probably never be placed into a management position -If you have a baby, expect to not have a job when you return from maternity leave -0 opportunity for growth, barely any opportunity to actually make any money -COMPLETE waste of time and effort. -Feel slimy after building a relationship with a customer, especially after you see news articles about D1G and how they are not delivering on any of their promises to homeowners

Pros

All the staff . . . managers and teammates were exceptional. Supportive. Encouraging. Lots of great interaction.

Cons

Company does not confirm appointments because management says that they have too many people cancel. That means there is something wrong with confirmation press. My first customers were put out when I came knocking at their door. Since there was no confirmation call, they assumed I wasn't coming. Design 1 also has the philosophy that you don't leave their home until they ask you to leave. That means multiple call to your team leader. If they don't make an $80,000 on the spot, all the rebates and discounts are taken away. That makes the company look unprofessional. The company rarely has any Be Back sales. I can see why. I tried to validate the financial statistics that are used in the sales presentation. I could not. They appeared to be overinflated and misleading. I asked the company to tell me where I could find the information to back-up their numbers. They offered no response. I am very dissappointed. I was really looking forward to a successful career with Design 1.
