Think I Found My Career

Business Outlook

Pros

This company has set their sights on career advancement of qualified candidates. I have personally received two promotions in two seasons with Advocate Construction and it has been made clear that there are still future advancement opportunities available. In regards to compensation, I'm better compensated financially at Advocate than I was in my previous role with a Fortune 100 company despite 7 years and the same number of promotions (2). The leadership here at Advocate Construction is extremely knowledgeable which shows itself by delivering great service to all customers. Senior Management is also driven to provide a positive work environment and to exceed compensation expectations for all workers.

Cons

Advocate Construction supported me throughout learning new roles, but I to get up to speed there were moments where I felt I was pushed beyond my what I thought I was capable of.

Pushing our people to find and then exceed their limits is what has allowed our explosive growth into three states in three years. Thank you for fighting through the tougher moments so that you can capitalize on your professional development and be ready for the new challenges we have thrown at you. I'm happy to say that there is plenty more where that came from, and its due in part to the performance of our Sales Managers.

Proud to Hire for Advocate

Director of talent acquisition

Pros

Advocate is the definitive career choice for high-performers who want a clear, documented path to growth. It’s a meritocracy where your advancement is based entirely on your discipline, not your tenure. This is a 'future-proof' career in the physical economy where your character and advocacy for homeowners are the primary drivers. You’re given a $48,100 guaranteed base, a company truck, and the independence to run your territory like your own business. If you’re a self-starter looking for a stable foundation paired with a $150k+ ceiling, this is the career for you.

Cons

Not for the faint of heart. The standards here are incredibly high, and the accountability is ever-present. It’s a physical, field-based role with a 10-to-8 schedule during peak season. If you aren't a self-starter who can manage your own time and energy, you'll find the pace overwhelming. This is a place for high-performers, not people looking for a soft landing.

It's great to have our Director of Talent Acquisition share what it means to be part of the crew and highlight the value of a career built on character and homeowner advocacy. After ten years with us, your perspective is not only a roadmap for anyone looking to join the team, it’s also a powerful reminder for the people already here who love that sense of ownership and the impact they make every day. We don’t hire based solely on a resume; we hire based on character and discipline. If you’ve ever felt limited in your income potential or restricted from doing what you do best every day, you may find your forever career with Advocate. Many of our most successful teammates come from these backgrounds: Service Industry Professionals: High-volume servers and managers who have outgrown their income ceiling and want a professional career track. Military Veterans & Athletes: Individuals who thrive in high-stakes, "results-oriented" environments and value clear protocols and teamwork. Ambitious Professionals: Those currently in "Inside Sales," "Logistics," or "Corporate Retail" who are tired of being tied to a desk and want to own their results. We're always growing and hiring!
