Pros

If you have the gift of gab/sales, a positive attitude and actively keep your behavior acceptable upbeat charismatic in a social setting and are a generally confident person especially with new unknown people all the time this job is for you. The upper management are all incredible people, wonderful teachers, are very friendly and will do everything in there power to make you succeed in your job role. This company starts you off with a higher pay than most and will keep giving opportunity for advancement as long as you prove your ability to get the job done right the first time and keep a strong steady pace. They like to promote from within and let people flourish. Acquiring this job was the best thing that has happened to me . This company is honest, quality, and only gives and deals with the best. Every day I learn something new and am looking forward to a long future with this company.

Cons

Dealing with people saying no. But this is with any sales job. And like any sales job having winning behaviors and keeping your identity and your job role separate and at a ten on a 1-10 scale. You will be absolutely fine. This job is a breeze it's fun and it's fulfilling at the end of the day you feel like you did good for the world around you . Which is a great feeling

Pros

They had work for you everyday. Commission split is the best in the industry.

Cons

Because they still use PAPER tickets you have to go to the shop every morning. You don't get paid while you are waiting around the shop in the morning. You are required to work every other Saturday. You don't get paid while waiting for dispatch (sometimes it takes more than 30 minutes). Depending on whose dispatching, you could end up driving more than an hour between jobs. You don't get paid drive time, unless you go outside of the magic circle. Then you only get paid ONE WAY. Most of the jobs are tune ups. The tune ups are less than $40. This means most of the customers don't have money and many of them expect you to fix their unit for $40. They have weekly production meetings where they pass out a sheet with everyone's numbers. They belittle and threaten the people on the bottom of the list. They expect you to sell a NEW system if the existing one is older than 5 years old. They don't want you to really fix anything, just sell new systems. If your numbers were low they would send you home before you got to 40 hrs (usually on Thursday.) Then they still expect you to come in on to work on Saturday. The three stooges get all of the good calls. Everyone else gets scraps.
