Pros
Good camaraderie among coworkers. Most people you work with are very supportive and will go out of their way to help you be successful.
Cons
If you want anything resembling a life outside of work then this is not for you. On call 24/7. Expected to be constantly working on improving yourself inside and outside of work, so much so that you aren't left with time to get your personal, simple day to day tasks accomplished. Commission only is made clear upfront but the additional costs they require of you are not discussed prior to hiring. No gas reimbursement despite being required to drive thousands of miles per month for business. The company requires you to purchase a ridiculously high car insurance coverage policy minimum $500K/$500K (it was difficult to even find insurance providers that would write it up on a personal insurance policy. I was quoted $800/month and I have a perfect driving record). You're essentially being told to purchase a new work-related item every week, from a $30 tape measure to a $100 collapsible ladder, there was always a new expense, before most new hires had even had an opportunity to make a sale! The sales process is considered "consultative" however I found it to be rather pushy and misleading in the eyes of the customer. Customers sign up for a free quote with implication that you won't be in their home for long and you are given a scripted 3 hour sales pitch which involves several "give ups" where you pretend to take the customers' "no" for an answer then continue to push the product, drop the price. Far more pushy than I was comfortable with and definitely not what I would consider to be a consultative sales approach. Its a scheme-like sales approach. The customers say it and the young CEO's don't want to believe it because it worked when they went door to door many years ago. Things have changed. It's definitely a "drink the koolaid" kind of company. It's almost cult-like. It's easy to get drawn into a commission only sales job when the first year consultants are making $75K in valid reviews but when you factor in the additional costs of insurance, work-related equipment purchases, gas mileage, and zero work life balance, to me this was simply not worth it. If you're an experienced sales person you can make the same amount of money for a company that is willing to pay for your work related expenses and understand the meaning of work life balance. They have an annual trip to Mexico, "all expenses paid" except you are responsible for the cost of your flight and there are mandatory events you must attend. If the conference involves mandatory events, the company should be paying for all expenses including airfare. I was told in my hiring interview in May that we would be able to go, then told on day 1 of training that we would not be eligible to go due to the time we were hired. Not a great start. The company offers promotional incentives frequently with big prizes offered at the expense of their partners, not on the company dime (electronics, cars, etc) yet the company won't pay for their own employees work related expenses. I was also lead to believe that I would be making solid commissions (that would continue to grow) straight out of their 30 day paid training period ($500 a week and you are working and studying harder than you ever did in college, so don't get too excited). If you have a "sell ice to Eskimos" mentality and want to learn one product and sell it from sun up to sun down, then by all means, this might be the job for you. If you are a good sales person looking for a reputable company to work for, make a decent living and have some balance, then you can do much better than this.
