Manager - Telemarketing Manager Paramount Builders Employee Review

This company understands the value in positive encouragement and is willing to tap into the amazing talent of the millions of citizens who typically are barred from landing a job in an industry that pays enough to make a living due to their driving records and backgrounds.

The starting pay is $10 per hour, and the hours are kind of odd. Also the commission pay is based on the salesman's ability to get a contract signed and not based on a canvassers ability to get a scheduled appointment. So starting as a canvasser your pay is left in the salesman's hands,

Flexible time off, decent commission (if production doesn’t diminish it on back ends), other sales reps, leads provided (quality of those leads is unknown).

Required to use your own vehicle, no reimbursement for mileage. Company boasts training in the interview but the training is anything but quality. You get thrown on leads without proper training and you get reprimanded through your commission for not knowing how to price things properly because you weren’t trained enough. There’s no accountability or evidence of what was actually used to build the job you sold so crews can claim whatever and it comes out of your commission. Constant yearly adjustments to your pay scale (decreases only). No communication from the production department with the clients or urgency for production to build your jobs. The only way to make good money here is to overcharge for jobs that are already a higher than average price point by the company so your back ends don’t get taken away during installs. You never get straight answers from anybody when you have a question or issue.
