Pros

Great culture and work environment for post graduates just looking for experience. Most people in the department will help develop and train you as long as you are willing to ask. The product itself is amazing.

Cons

The hours say its a 11am-7pm job but it's really more like 10am - 9pm because most days you will have training start at 10am and you are only allowed to leave the field/neighborhood at 7 pm, in which you then have to drive back to the office that can sometimes be an hour or so away from the neighborhood you worked in. The pay is unclear to every new trainee that starts because they do not explain that the first 5 estimates you accumulate cover your base pay and are not considered commission like the interviewer vaguely made it seem to be. In the winter months you have to work in the cold rain and snow, which is just not enjoyable at all. Also, the amount of daylight is reduced and thus it is more difficult to generate a lead at night because homeowners tend to be sketched out by you. The job is what it is. Door to door marketing for several hours on end in neighborhoods that get crushed by other door to door companies and thus you end up getting verbally abused day in and day out by people who simply do not want to be bothered by another sales man. Lastly, the martketing position is as much of a sales position as anything else. Worse part is you have to lie and manipulate the nice homeowners into allowing a sales guy to come in the house and take up 3-4 hours of their time when you told them it only takes 30 minutes. If you have a heart, the position eventually starts to weigh on your conscience.

Pros

After 15 years with the company, the biggest positive has always been the employee-focused culture. They genuinely invest in creating a good work environment, from modern office spaces and great amenities to company events, conferences, and even trips that help build team culture. The flexibility in BT to work remotely part of the week has been a huge benefit for work-life balance, especially with a family. Compensation is competitive within the home remodeling industry, and the company offers solid benefits like 401K and private health insurance. There are also opportunities to grow and learn if you’re willing to put in the effort.

Cons

One challenge is that career growth and promotions don’t always align with seniority or long-term loyalty, which can sometimes feel discouraging after many years with the company. For employees in tech-focused roles, compensation can feel a bit below market compared to the broader tech industry, even though bonuses can help offset that in strong years. Raises without a promotion are usually modest, and while the health insurance is decent overall, coverage for some major medical needs could definitely be improved.
