Pros

For someone with experience in the HVAC sales field, a person could earn a good commission-based salary and earn a a good living.

Cons

For someone that does not have experience in the HVAC sales field, a person or is not a technician, the pay is very low and so is employee morale.

Pros

Good pay for how easy the job is, get to talk to a lot of different people, good for college students who can only work weekends

Cons

Lots of rejection, long hours on Saturdays (9:00am-7:00pm), can be frustrating when you don't get leads

Pros

The hours are very flexible & the pay is great. You have the opportunity to get commission every week plus a bonus every month. We get paid every week.

Cons

We work on Saturday & Sunday. It is a high turnover job plus high pressure to get leads. The management don't really tell you when you get sales plus the commission went from 10% to 1%. The managers will lie to you to get you to do what they want. Not a stable job. Could be fired any day for not getting leads. The job entails that you work in the home depot store & generate leads by walking up to home depot customers & offering services from a script. If you can't take rejection then you will struggle. Not much room for advancement.

Lead Generator

Pros

Decent hourly pay; good supervisi0n; flexible scheduling in an emergency; positive attitudes.

Cons

The bonus plan for rewarding the lead generator when a lead becomes a sale is just unacceptable. The lead generator has no real way of knowing what happens to their confirmed leads after the scheduled appointment. There is no transparency in that respect. I don't know how many leads turned into sales that I was never compensated for because there's no real way to track it. One of my managers said, "Well . . . you have to trust us." Sorry.

Pros

If you have the gift of gab/sales, a positive attitude and actively keep your behavior acceptable upbeat charismatic in a social setting and are a generally confident person especially with new unknown people all the time this job is for you. The upper management are all incredible people, wonderful teachers, are very friendly and will do everything in there power to make you succeed in your job role. This company starts you off with a higher pay than most and will keep giving opportunity for advancement as long as you prove your ability to get the job done right the first time and keep a strong steady pace. They like to promote from within and let people flourish. Acquiring this job was the best thing that has happened to me . This company is honest, quality, and only gives and deals with the best. Every day I learn something new and am looking forward to a long future with this company.

Cons

Dealing with people saying no. But this is with any sales job. And like any sales job having winning behaviors and keeping your identity and your job role separate and at a ten on a 1-10 scale. You will be absolutely fine. This job is a breeze it's fun and it's fulfilling at the end of the day you feel like you did good for the world around you . Which is a great feeling

Pros

I worked for ARS Rescue for almost 3 years. I was a sales associate and walked around Home Depot generating sales for the company. I loved the store I was in they treated me like i was one of there own . the only thing i liked about the job was the pay and commission.

Cons

I hated this company they didn't appericate there employees espically the ones out n the field. We had to work Christmas eve and holidays while the office was closed. There was a lot of favoritism going on.

Pros

It's a quick interview process the pay is great if you are a great to decent sales person. the job is relatively easy once you get past the fear of not making your first two weeks quota. They have a very friendly work environment. meetings are fun and exciting. I also got to make my own hours with the note I had a hour limit and I had to work just about every weekend.

Cons

The training process isn't really a training process at all they just plopped me in a home depot store and told me to go get some leads after one day of orientation. they had a supervisor watching for a little while but all he did I was give a few pointers and leave me hanging with little to any previous sales experience. They are overruled by corporate which is a bit cutthroat when you don't make them any money for even a short amount of time even when their product is off seasoned.
