Pros

There are none. Would have made more money in a UPS warehouse.

Cons

This is a sales job, so naturally they feed the easy sales to the guys who have been there for years and thus have a solid closing ratio. You will be given the dregs and leftovers 2hours away from your home. You will work 12 hours a day running appointments to broke hoarders who can't pass credit. It is what it is. This company is all about the money and will not distribute high quality leads to you if you don't sell, which is impossible when they only give you the trailers and mini-split leads. They will send you to appointments at 7pm that are hours away from your home that have a low probability of closing. Management does not care about you at all. Believe me when I say that your ability to earn an income is not important. They only care about sales - if you don't get good leads in the first week of the month, you won't sell, and you can expect the dregs for the rest of the month. During your interview they will always show that top seller to get you excited about the potential, but there is NO POTENTIAL. You will be an expendable commodity for a company that is all about the money. Furthermore, their prices are so astronomical compared to the competition that you will have to drop your sales price so low just to get a sale that you will barely make decent commissions even if you do sell. This company does not care about its salesmen at all - you are just a means to an end. I have never witnessed an organization that functioned in such a selfish, myopic way. Literally ZERO care for your success or work-life balance.

Pros

Decent pay for an entry level job

Cons

Ok where do I start? You will work in a Home Depot with very little indication that you’re not a Home Depot employee. So be prepared to train yourself to learn how to work every single department if you plan on selling anything. Speaking of training, you will receive a day or two of training then off you go to your store with little to no supervision and support. They’ll try to tell you that this will give you more freedom, but if you need any advice or assistance, I hope your supervisor answered their phone more often then mine did. Next, you’re at the mercy of Home Depot whom by the way have their own reps whom are basically doing the same job as you, and the management will knee cap you to ensure they’re reps get the leads instead of you. Right time will cut your hours in half if you haven’t gotten a lead as fast as they want. They will take you off the clock in the middle of your shift. The representatives I sent to do estimates I learned after I left we’re going into business for themselves costing me at least $600 in commissions. I found this out because RTHS was kicked out of my Home Depot because of this a few weeks after I left. I guess the main point of this is not to say right time is horrible but the lack of supervision and support means your pretty much going to be figuring out how to sell their products on your own.

Pros

Good pay, good benefits, friendly co-workers

Cons

Local branches ignore customer complaints, work load frequently increases without any increase in pay or staffing, unable to actually solve any problems (You just deflect) "someone will be calling you within 24 hours" Ps. The odds of anyone calling the customer are slim to none.
