Pros

Big and stable company. Sales reps, receive company car, gas card , ipad. Industry is recession proof ( almost ) . Commercial Sales only way to go! Better hours!! Good work home life balance!! Not a bad job , just have to focus on the good!

Cons

Lots of competition within your own company. Beyond local management no one really cares who sells what. Your competition is everywhere from small time companies, to large companies, your own tech's and residential side of business. Also it is a turn and burn sale. No real residual. Hard to find verticals other than hotels (w/ bed bug ) that can provide residual sales. You must follow up on everything as lots of management will drop the ball on your deals. Makes it challenging to follow through for your customers.

Pros

Company car and gas card. Car can be driven for personal use! Uniforms paid for. Most of your leads are generated for you. Most of your management cares about their employees.

Cons

Low base pay. Made it harder to earn commission. Based on a bucket system. Long days and weeks. Avg 50-70 hrs per week in busy season. Have to work most Saturdays. Call sessions Tuesdays and Thursdays most weeks. 8/10 reps would make more money if they got paid hourly when you look at how many hours you work. Most of your leads generated from the call center are terrible, fake leads.
