      Your Final Back-Up Plan If You're In A Tough Job Search

      Pros

      You are paid a base salary weekly as well as weekly commissions.

      Cons

      Very young and immature atmosphere. This isn't an 8-5 job because management expects you to also participate in after work activities to become "friends" with management and co workers. Work starts to get complicated and dramatic as everyone spends too much time together. The majority of the management lives and breathes Technipower so the drama and non stop work talk never ends. Their business ethics are also questionable. Promotion consists of sharing your territory with a new entry level sales person so while you are training them you are not only giving up a part of your own territory but also spending time on someone who probably won't bill anything for 6 months. This is one way Technipower puts a "cap" on earnings. Base Salary is well-below market. Commission structure would be competitive (as percentage is fair), except you are confined to a small & arbitrary territory where there is limited business to be had (this is another way they "cap" your earnings). If you are motivated by commissions and other bonuses (such as real, monetary bonuses and perks) look elsewhere. Technipower's form of a "bonus" is a pizza party or bowling night.

      Pros

      There is a warm welcoming atmosphere here. The management and staff are incredibly friendly and supportive. The COO is one of the nicest people I've ever met. There is an open door policy that even the CEO roles with. You can walk into his office at any time with questions. All of the executive management started where every single one of us did, the bottom. No one looks down on you if you aren't getting it right away. It was a huge change for me when I first started and it took me a few months to close my first deal. I did not go to college for engineering, so learning the lingo takes awhile. There was no deadline on when I had to close one, just pure support and teaching the whole way. There is slim to none micromanaging once you get the hang of it. No one is breathing down your back. Just do your job and you'll be fine. The uncapped commission is wonderful. The more calls you make, the more money in your pocket. They have a lot of outside office activities: softball, basketball, volleyball, bowling, 5k runs, fitness challenges, etc. They encourage you to get involved and stay active. They are also involved in several charities around the city. I never work more than 8 hours a day unless I CHOOSE too.

      Cons

      If you don't like being thrown into the fire to learn, then this isn't for you. If you don't like to pick up the phone and just do the job, this isn't for you. Yes, the phone is heavy when you first start, it's weird making calls to people you've never met, but that's the job you signed up for and you know that day 1. The saying "Work Hard, Play Hard" is very true here. You're not just going to be handed job orders, you work for them. The base pay is on the lower side, yes, however, I cannot stress enough that if you JUST DO THE JOB, you will never live off of your base pay. There are a lot of managers but when you look at the United States as a whole, only half the states has someone in charge of them. 50 states with 25 managers... there's room to grow. Don't look at it as there are 75 people in the company and 25 managers, look at the big picture!

      Pros

      No pros that I can see besides minimal paycheck. Too much politics and cliques not focusing on the Business

      Cons

      People, People, people people people people people people people people again people. Most all of the problems here come from management.
