Pros

You really make your own schedule unless leads come in. Uncapped Commission.

Cons

The base salary is less than minimum wage. You have to jump through hoops to get customers financed. There is a long slow season so I recommend having a second job. No bonuses, only when you hit 100k in sales. During busy season you have no Work/ Life balance.

Pros

Opportunity to work for a well-established and respected industry leader with a strong reputation. Competitive pay with performance-based incentives and opportunities to increase earnings. Comprehensive training and ongoing professional development to build valuable skills. Clear career advancement opportunities into leadership, management, or specialized roles. Excellent teamwork and support from experienced colleagues and managers.

Cons

Long hours and overtime may be required during peak pest control seasons. Daily exposure to pests, insects, rodents, and tight or uncomfortable spaces may not be suitable for everyone. Meeting sales or performance goals can be stressful, especially in customer-facing roles. Work schedules may include evenings or weekends to accommodate customer needs.
