Huge opportunity, but high risk and hard work.

Pros

- run like a sports team - tons of motivation, training, support - great pay when you succeed: between $350 - 450 per sale - confident, motivated people to work with

Cons

- 100% commission based: if you don't do well, you won't get paid - fair amount of pressure to work hard - expectation to knock doors from 2pm - 9pm every day except Sunday

Pros

It seemed like the info checked out at the beginning after I did some research, but it ended up being one of the worst decisions I have made career wise. The manager named Travis Prete was nice and available to come help on a tricky install, as there was virtually no training except a few job shadows that you don't really get paid for.

Cons

I packed up my life, gave up my apartment for a promising summer job before school in the fall and they promise that you can make vast amounts of money and avoid student debt but later when my manager called my fiancé and I in early to a meeting to do "inventory" with him, he then said "I'm letting you guys go." just like that. one day we had a job and the next we are unemployed and practically homeless because we were staying at the dorms in a university. They recruited us to come work for them and then turned around and did that. Apparently they were overstaffed because sales wasn't picking up so they gave us the boot. Lost so much money coming to work for them. Really screwed me over

Pros

Great management, wages and experience! My managers were always eager to help and assist in anyway I needed. Really good group.

Cons

Long hours are for sure a con, but if you're used to working hard it shouldn't be a problem.
