Pros

Good pay, decent training program, semi-flexible schedule, can work with motivated entrepreneurs

Cons

Constantly changing priorities, no sales direction, treat franchisees like employees, ZERO work life balance, no job growth opportunity unless you are willing to move to Dallas, your bonus will become utterly by chance if you keep getting switched around to subgroups, and YOU will be the grunt work for all of the poorly thought through initiatives. They will spring some surprise new initiative about every 2 months that demands you work overtime to accomplish your normal job, plus whatever new idea some director thought up that will be reversed in 2 months time.

Pros

Most of the employees that work at this company are great. All my co-workers were very helpful and taught me a lot over the years. The experience I gained from this company will benefit me in the future and with my future companies.

Cons

The company does not practice what they preach. They tell employees that they need to put in their time and work up the ladder and then they will promote people they just hired or that have no experience to upper management positions based on them knowing someone. The management is completely unprofessional. My last manager would say negative things about his subordinates to his other subordinates. He would talk opening about how he doesn't know what he is doing and takes as many days off as possible. He would have his employees do all his work and never took the time to learn. As his employee, you could never go to him for questions because he didn't know any answers or where to get them. Lastly, he would throw you or any one of his employees under the bus the first chance he got if it meant him getting ahead.

Pros

As a field consultant you have more flexibility than most jobs offer. The salary was fair, plus benefits such as a company vehicle, profit sharing, health and dental, cell phone reimbursement, all add up.

Cons

Often times there are too many priorities, tasks are disjointed and come and go without consistency or follow up.
