Pros

Pay is great and there’s always opportunity to make more Can easily be a very peaceful job especially on the days there’s good weather Hours are long but time goes by quick and schedule is flexible

Cons

You’re basically taught to provoke aggression out of people and that’s not safe considering you’re out walking in random neighborhoods by yourself Leadership is a factor that can cause you to lose sales. EQUAL opportunities and/or rewards are not given Equipment doesn’t work more times than less and management will just say that’s an excuse If the customer genuinely doesn’t want the service you WILL be held accountable because you couldn’t some how make them want the service They don’t really care about the customer. Money and sales is all they care about I did not feel like my safety was taken into consideration

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.
