Pros

You can use a company truck for personal use.

Cons

Long hours with no real benefit, extremely low salary, unprofessional, lack of real leadership, long drawn out process, habitual lying to customers and staff, falsifying documents to fit their narrative, causing damage to customers homes to get a claim filed, lack of communication, lack of accountability, sexism, racial discrimination, and constant gaslighting.

Thank you for the review. Your experiences are entirely unlike any others we have heard. Our people are the heart and soul of everything we do, and we are proud of our exceptional people-first culture and the five Top Workplaces Culture Excellence Awards that we achieved in 2024 as a result of anonymous employee feedback and voting. As a people company, we value the experience of all of our employees, regardless of any aspect that makes them an individual, and we are energized by the opportunity to work with our managers to reinforce our values. We also would not want to work here if this review was an accurate portrayal of this organization; however, this review does not reflect who we are and the number of positive reviews we receive clearly shows this. We focus on providing everyone with a positive experience and the tools needed to do their job well, even when someone struggles to follow through on their commitments and align with our company values of integrity and individual responsibility. We do not condone any behavior that is deceptive or unlawful and we do not look the other way when people make unfounded accusations. Unfortunately, this individual is violating Glassdoor’s policy and chose to present opinions as facts in an attempt to cause the organization harm.

I love the ability to not only work outside but also help customers at the same time. Those who work hard can make lots of money.

If you are willing to put in the time and effort, there aren't many.

Thank you for sharing your experience and highlighting one of the best aspects of a sales career at Advocate Construction. The ability to work outdoors while directly assisting homeowners in our own communities is a major draw for our team. For individuals who enjoy working with the public but are exhausted by the demanding hours and capped earning potential often found in retail, hospitality, or traditional customer service roles, this position offers a refreshing and dynamic alternative where your dedication directly translates to high rewards. We also appreciate your positive feedback on our recently simplified compensation structure. Our current structure of a reliable base salary paired with a robust system of bonuses was designed to reward those who put in the effort and drive results. We strive to support our team members by equipping them with tech-savvy tools, our company truck program, and a supportive culture that values continuous improvement and accountability. We're grateful for your hard work in the Milwaukee market and look forward to celebrating many more of your successes in the field.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and for recognizing the strong earning potential available to our sales representatives. In addition to a competitive base salary, PTO and a comprehensive benefits and insurance program, we have built a monthly incentive program designed to generously reward team members for generating leads and bringing on new customers. This allows us to foster an achievement-based environment where earning potential is driven by results in the field and individual contribution. To further support our sales and field operations teams, we offer a company truck program and also equip our teams with modern technology to streamline workflows, improve efficiency, and support success in the field and office. We appreciate your constructive advice regarding communication. We rely heavily on honest perspectives from our team to help us refine our operations, as standing still simply does not align with our culture. Instead, we actively seek out ways to elevate our standards and adapt. We look forward to your continued growth with us.
