Pros

Lay off- if you can afford it is nice. I didn't mind having off for the winter months. Being outside appealed to me.

Cons

This job is a revolving door. They play down the door to door part in the interview, and tell you nothing about phone sales. They bombard their customers with up to 15 sales calls per week. I am not another disgruntled former employee. I have seen the inside of this company and it is ugly. They overwork, underpay, and under appreciate you. They say you will be making 28k plus commisisons, but that 28k is broken up over 52 weeks, when in fact they put you on lay off for the winters, letting them off the hook for paying you for those months. The window to make commssions is tiny, and they leave the quota just out of reach. DO NOT TAKE THIS JOB UNLESS YOU REALLY NEED IT.

Cons

Forced to work long hours, forced to work in weather, the company does not care about state laws and regulations. really only cares about the revenue.
