Pros

Sales oriented company geared toward bonus incentives and rewarding performance for all levels of staff. Team oriented at the store level as a comprehensive reward system that promotes helping others. Very good training for real world private business model at the manager level. Accountable for all aspects of the local operation and offers responsibility equal to compensation opportunities.

Cons

Poor initial training for new entry level staff to the construction industry. Much of the training is antiquated or non-existent for the construction knowledge needed to sale buyers who are more and more dependent on professional expertise.

Pros

Good benefits, pay is decent. If you work from home FT as a Manager , you can also run your own business while on the clock get paid for it. Who wouldn't want to work there.

Cons

You can work your butt off, put in more hours than you should and get no respect in return.
