Pros

Decent benefits Some work/life balance but that has been deteriorating since covid

Cons

No care or concern for those of us with disabilities especially with the GET in store program - there's a reason some of us stepped into corporate desk jobs because we didn't have to ask for accommodations there. UX already frequents the stores on a regular basis for research. RTO is a complete joke when they praised all of us for increased productivity back in 2020, 2021, 2022, etc.

Pros

When I first started, we were straight commission, and made great money. You used your own gas and your own vehicle but we’re paid very well. They changed pay plans and gave us a company car and a small salary plus “bonuses” it was a massive cut.

Cons

Management couldn’t care less about you. You’re not judged by what you have done or achieved. It is “what have you done for me this month.” Go from making $110k+/yr on commission with the flexibility of setting your own schedule and no expectations of work if you aren’t on the appointment schedule. They changed the plan to $40k/yr plus bonuses and you get a company car. They promise promotions but find any excuse to not bump you up. Including the birth of my child which made me miss 3 weeks of January making me short on my “goals” which made them put me on a “coaching plan” which meant no promotion I sold more than I did when I made the 110k/yr on commission and only made 75k after bonuses on the new plan. While being expected to be in the store or in appointments for 55+hrs a week. When the leads dried up, you were expected to “self -gen” your own leads and if you fell short, you attend a punitive meeting at 7am an hour away to “learn how to self gen”. They took a great program and job and ruined it.

Pros

Good Pay. Good benefits. Learning Growth is exponential.

Cons

Don't expect to further your career. Everyone above you has one main objective: prove their worth. They do this by trying and searching on where there might be a problem and then meddling with a good system to 'make it better' by making everyone miserable . If you like negative reinforcement, a glass ceiling, and others taking credit for your work, this is the place for you.
