Pros

- Resources given to advance and become a better sales rep. - The culture is unparalleled and is the opposite of average or boring. - Uncapped commission. You CAN make a lot of money. - Supportive coworkers. - They way they handled working remotely during the coronavirus was impeccable. Shows that we are adaptable and we won't be affected by a change in the workplace. - We are better than all of our competitors. Makes it easier to sell and I'm proud to represent a leader in an industry. - In the New York City branch, they pay for your lunch and dinner. Yup -They do tons of raffles and giveaways. Many incentives for people to work harder. - One of the best sales training programs around. They really know how to do it and have formed an excellent system.

Cons

- Retention amongst your "sales class" is garbage. Slowly... one by one.... you will see people from your training class leave. Some willingly some fired for poor performance. - They straight up lie to you about the average amount a first year sales rep can make. Don't believe it. It is NOT $50-100k its more around 35K maybe 40k. - Be prepared to dial numbers of people who told the last rep to stop calling them a week or two ago. But hey its a cold calling job, if you can't handle it then be a toll booth operator. - The service can really screw over a contractor. They can lose out on thousands since they won't win every project. Some contractors end up having success, but majority fall short and leave a bad review. This is why majority of our pitch is combating our sh*ty reviews. - They don't tell you how to prospect. They keep it a secret and it ultimately screws everyone over. If people knew how to prospect on their own, retention amongst employees would be higher, less people would be called repetitively and people would work harder. -Their payment structure for multiple sales mixed with retention amongst existing clients is just a mess, it's inaccurate and majority of the time.. is out of your control. People will cancel on you and 99% of the time - it is HomeAdvisor's fault not yours.

Pros

None- the lunch is not even good. It is a lot of overweight people in a call center or kids fresh out of college that this place appeals too because of lunches. How about having a real sales person teach training, not someone who teaches you how to yell at contractors and scare them into signing up.

Cons

You are cold-calling contractors all day, not sure what could get worse than doing this? Oh they are not even fresh leads they are contractor who are called 10 times a week by the same people. BBB ratings of Home Advisor say it all about the company, It is a huge joke. How have a new training class every 3 weeks that more than 90 percent are gone. Keep selling people on a fake dream of making the big bucks, cold calling in a call center all day. Home Advisor hires anyone with a pulse go look at who works at the office, you will see. Poor leadership that favors anyone who drinks the koolaid about their silly sales tactics. STOP BEGGING CONTRACTORS TO SIGN UP- YOUR PRODUCT IS TERRIBLE.

Pros

Good company culture Free lunch and dinner if you graduate Nice and encouraging team members. Everyone sticks together because of the mental implications of the job Your success depends on your managers

Cons

Not a good place to develop your career. Yes you can make up to 6 figures but it’s all about having high energy and being fake about a product that really only works for a niche type of contractor. The training process is way better than the actual inferno and real sales floor. The company just sucks all passion and life from you. You’re stuck calling angry and unsophisticated jerks all day trying to get their SSNs or cards in one phone call. They want you to vomit positive energy like a factory machine. Like a hamster on wheels. You can surely make a lot of money if you can fake ur but if you have any sliver of personal internal purpose, this rudimentary role will never work for you. It turns your brain to chaff. They literally tell you to turn your brain off. No potential for actually gaining marketing and sales skills that can hone you into a sophisticated industry heavy weight. Even if you are good at this, consider your future as a marketing professional . There are ton of other places to gain valuable industry experience with better negotiable salaries. But don’t take my word for it. Try it for yourself
