Pros

Lay off- if you can afford it is nice. I didn't mind having off for the winter months. Being outside appealed to me.

Cons

This job is a revolving door. They play down the door to door part in the interview, and tell you nothing about phone sales. They bombard their customers with up to 15 sales calls per week. I am not another disgruntled former employee. I have seen the inside of this company and it is ugly. They overwork, underpay, and under appreciate you. They say you will be making 28k plus commisisons, but that 28k is broken up over 52 weeks, when in fact they put you on lay off for the winters, letting them off the hook for paying you for those months. The window to make commssions is tiny, and they leave the quota just out of reach. DO NOT TAKE THIS JOB UNLESS YOU REALLY NEED IT.

Pros

decent starting salary for new employees, having the freedom from lawn to lawn, no supervision as your days go, work

Cons

what is there that isnt a con at Trugreen, they expect you to work 13-14 hours a day pay you pretty much nothing for overtime, everything everything is a upsale, they told us today that if we dont start getting customers to change their mind about cancelling there subscription they're going to start laying off? they work you like a mule, all day my interview went GREAT job sounded amaizing but once you get in its NOTHING like what they say, all sales they want you on the lawn for like 15 min's to treat 12000 square yard, customers pay to much for the bull crap work they expect you to do to hit your numbers just to make a dollar for yourself!
