Pros
Great opportunity to learn about HVAC if you ask questions! Johnestone Supply is a coop with locations in several markets owned by different people. Goal-oriented environment.
Cons
Commission plan is a joke. No one could properly explain it, so it feels as if getting commission is a game you have to play, moving accounts in and out of your territory to make it work for you. No other company I have worked for made it this difficult to get commission. Management can and has decided to take commission away from sales reps. As a territory manager , you have very little freedom to make decisions for your customers. Read your non-disclosure carefully before you decide to come on board. My insurance was cancelled (according to AETNA) before the month was up, and then the company lied to me about it. They did reinstate it afterwards, but I had to pay for my appointment in order to be seen that day. So many Meetings for the Sales team- There is a 7 AM Mandatory Monday meeting and a Friday 3:30 PM Mandatory Meeting. These meetings could have been short emails! I felt like every ounce of determination I had was sucked up and spit out as not good enough.
