Pros

Nice people, good product. Nice company story.

Cons

Straight commission. You get paid on what's delivered not what's written. Manage claims floored products are stocked so delivery can be achieved in 1-3 weeks. The truth is more like 1-3 months. Rules change constantly, no real set training path for new hires, most sales people won't help you unless you split the deal with them. Complete lack of leadership and over staffing of the floor makes it very difficult to make any real money. Employment ad said 45-75K with top earners making 6 figures. The reality is more like 24K-40K. Long hours, constantly changing the schedule, working your days off. Make sure people don't cheat you is a full time job. Overall, very disappointing. Sadly I read the reviews on here before I took the job thinking for me it would be different. I was very wrong. The company does not appear to value it sales people.

Pros

They provided health insurance and 401K contribution

Cons

Very low additional pay for Sales Manager role. COMMISSION only job. Some months I made $14.00, other months I made $8000.00. I was Salesperson on the month many times and still never broke $50K year. LONG HOURS. Many people there work 12 hour days, just to get their sales numbers enough to avoid being fired. Upper management is "Old Boy" mentality.
