Pros

-Company vehicle provided with unlimited gas and mileage for both work and personal use during off hours, as long as the vehicle was returned on time for scheduled shifts. -Ideal time to get hired is in the fall, allowing ample time to train and prepare for peak season in spring when earning potential is highest.

Cons

-High-pressure environment that often encouraged pushing products or services to customers who didn’t necessarily need them. -Lack of organization and team cohesion made the workplace feel disconnected and chaotic. -Compensation was entirely commission-based with no base pay. -Encountered multiple unsafe situations in the field, including being threatened with a firearm and an aggressive dog incident. Safety increasingly became a concern over time. -Sales were frequently lost due to service delays or scheduling issues. For example, a customer who purchased multiple services experienced repeated no-shows from the service team, resulting in a lost sale. -6 day workweek, on call at all times
