Pros

The money and ability to make a great living is there. It is very rewarding to have customers call you and share their excitement with you when a project has been installed. Before the company was sold, there was a real sense of camaraderie amongst the teams.

Cons

It can take a couple of months before your income pipeline really gets going. You will put 30-40k a year on your car and it can be expensive to maintain until you earn a company car. You will work 6-7 days a week. It is often very difficult to get customers help when a project doesn't go well as communication is very slow and tedious between departments. Goal lines for rewards and progress are written on flowing water in this company and always changing. For example, the goal to become a senior rep changed every year until a new system replaced it. Not one rep in the office I worked in made senior status under the new metrics, including ones who already held the title. That means income loss for at least one quarter or until it can be earned again. You have to be almost flawless to reach the metrics they want.

Pros

Large National company with a broad reach. Marketing machine. This company used to care about their reputation and the quality of their products. Once they were bought out and the goal became profit over quality/accountability - the company quickly lose value.

Cons

Owned by private equity and it shows. Other reviews have stated the lack of leadership at the executive level and staffing issues. New systems without any piloting or testing. Constant moving of the goal posts depending on whichever C level employee is talking. Zero accountability from upper management. No investment in their employees. We used to focus on year to date sales goals. Then it was quarterly. And quickly it went from month goals to day to day goals. Everything is reactionary. Zero training in company SOPs or mentorship. Value all employees have either left for different opportunities or been let go because they spoke up. This is one of those companies where if you have a question, you will need to ask five different people to find the answer until it changes again. Whole asking other people, you’ll begin to find out some of those people are no longer here.
