Pros

OK the pros. there was some pros. They do try and make it a family feel but not really. They also like to make sure that you do know what you are doing and they also DO want to make sure that you are doing everything within safety standards.

Cons

The biggest CON is their CON. What I mean by this is that when you go to treat a property the square footage is probably wrong due tot he fact that they use google earth to look at properties. Or their favorite is getting a customer close to someone else and then taking the higher paying customer and saying that it is the same area as the lower paying customer. Instead of going out and actually walking the property. They really only care about the bottom line. They claim to be a christian company but they don not practice it

Pros

- Very very easy to move up in the company. If you dedicate a couple years and show skill in sales you can move up to a sales manager position extremely fast. If you are willing to move the opportunity to move up is even significantly easier and faster. - Almost all of management started at the bottom and worked their way up, if possible they always hire from within. - Good money, get out what you put in. - Direct Management is great, local and even regional management is almost even fantastic, but any higher then that becomes out of touch and very frustrating to (albeit indirectly) work with.

Cons

- Inconsistent at times about expectations, at times asking for one thing then immediately needing the other. Can be frustrated to be pulled in so many directions, but not even remotely unmanageable. - Lot's of hours, especially in management. Prime time? (March-End of May) Say goodbye to your personal life! Mandatory 1/2 day Saturdays, definitely a grind but worth it. - Frustrating policies and illogical outlook on what success looks like.
