      Pros

      It provides a way to see your potential in running your own business. You learn to work hard and form relationships with clients, employees, and co-workers.

      Cons

      There is essentially no training on the job site. You are basically placed at a house and expected to produce the house. Management does not care if you make a profit because no matter what they take their 40%. Many co-workers worked long hours and walked away with no compensation. It is very stressful.

      Pros

      They are no pros to working here.

      Cons

      These people are awful. Worked here 10 years ago and I still think about how bad it was. First off they manipulated me into taking the job and then when I got there I was feeling pretty paranoid and sketched out by their behavior. By the end of the first training they were openly picking on me because I wasn’t participating. From that point on I had lost any trust in the staff as they were making everything about me. Some kind of bullying campaign was being done against me. They were putting stuff in my food and water to mess with me. The second training the Vp was talking about how much he hated me using indirect terms. Such as “I hate PowerPoint” but he was referring to me. In hindsight I should have just left and quit but I guess I didn’t want to just let them win. In the end they quit on me and basically went against their company values such as relationships are everything (didn’t talk to me), results matter (less time focused on me would have gotten results) , and never give up ( I never quit but they did).
