Autonomy, great commission, great support system, warm leads

Upper management (as with all sales jobs) is driven by numbers. Expectations unreasonable in certain low income Texas cities in the South.

Business Outlook

Pros

Incredible support for sales people, amazing training, great management structure, lots of autonomy.

Cons

Commission plan was kind of convoluted, hard to understand at first. A little harder to sell because they don't have the name recognition in most parts of the country that some companies like ADT have.
