Pros

Management is great ,even dealing with Corporate has been. Tons of benefits, room for advancement. Off on weekends unless on call, which is rare honestly. You do have the option to work Saturday's if you want to get ahead or make extra. Commission isn't too bad. I surely can't complain.

Cons

Hours can be long. Payment schedule is not every other week. It's every 1st and 15th of the month. Sometimes you'll get lucky and get paid on a Friday if the 15th falls on a Sunday. Other days you'll go a 2 weeks plus 2-3 business days without a check. The amount of inspections needed per day. Outdated. Everything is done by hand. Charge backs. When people cancel early or stop paying they take the commission earned out of your check. No direct deposit.

Pros

Good Benefits, For a small fee you can drive a company car but your family can never ride in the car

Cons

Management is abusive, constant micromanaging, does not care about your family, say they are a Christian based company but that is far from the truth. More care is put on outward contributions to the community than to the employees. Many employees are on state assistance due to low pay.

Pros

Stable, growing, customer, as well as employee oriented company. If you are ready to work honestly, hard, smart, and put in the hours, you can make a living. Not going to get rich, but the company is always looking to find ways to keep employees longer. Excellent training program. The best in the industry. Company vehicles, uniforms, matched 401k up to 5% of your income. Health, life, vision, dental insurance available.

Cons

Some of the managers are not the best. The good old boy system still is at work, but seems to be going out. Corporate mentality is slow to change, but what's new about that?
