Pros

Truck, gas card, and toll car provided are really the only pros I can come up with. Also, most of the techs are pretty good guys.

Cons

No home life and management doesn't care since it doesn't affect them. Management plays favorites. Excessive amount of overtime required. No growth opportunities even if you have the right qualifications. Don't have enough techs to handle all of the jobs and no wants to come work for the company. Prices cut for late night and weekend calls and management no longer filters calls for it to be emergency only, so you work 24/7 when working on call and don't get paid well for it. Management is not there to support you when needed on nights and weekends.

Pros

Good Sales Incentives as a Nationwide Company. As far as locally, there really aren't any pros. I loved our Direct Sales Associate Manager, who cared about us, but was played like a puppet by upper management.

Cons

Was hired as a full time person with benefits, and within a few months all of us were taken down to less than 20 hours. They knew this would be the case, because the summer is busy, and the winter it's not as busy. No Teamwork encouraged. Never met staff that we walked by every Thursday. No training. No communication. When we would call to follow up on a clients status for a client, they would say "we don't have time to talk". This was what I would swear was their Motto. We felt that it was easier for us to tell the client to call the company, because then they would talk to them. Us as employees, were told, "we're too busy, we don't have time to talk on a constant. We were even told NOT to call in with any questions. One that was in charge of posting our commissions was getting $50 kickbacks from the Comfort Advisors when a sale occurred and then posted as a LOST acct., hence we weren't getting paid on it. She quit and then was just re-hired even after they found out about it. Sales Staff were never introduced to the rest of the management that was in the office or the inside staff, that we all walked by every Thursday which did work on our accounts.
