Pros

You can make a lot of friends at Power, and it's a guaranteed job for someone who is desperate enough.

Cons

1. They lie to you at the interview. - They will call it a marketing job but you are really just going door to door, in all sorts of weather, asking people to sign up for window and roof estimates. - They say hours are 11-7. However, this is not true; you will be back at the office on most nights after 8pm. You could be in any town within an hour's drive from the office, and most drivers/managers who take you there won't even pick you up until around 8pm, then you have to drive all the way back to the office. - They told me "the worst guy in the office makes $55K a year". In fact, most guys (they don't hire women) make less than $30K a year and can only afford to live with their parents. This is because you are knocking on doors that have been solicited by the same company over and over throughout the years; it is a flooded market. - Most of your co-workers are drug-addicts or criminals who were unable to find another job. They will hire anyone here, regardless of education or background. - They say that the health benefits are amazing. However, to have yourself, a spouse, and one child on your plan, you are looking at a minimum of $400/month taken out of your paycheck. This is NOT an example of amazing health benefits; my current employer gives me the same benefits for $150/month.

Pros

After 15 years with the company, the biggest positive has always been the employee-focused culture. They genuinely invest in creating a good work environment, from modern office spaces and great amenities to company events, conferences, and even trips that help build team culture. The flexibility in BT to work remotely part of the week has been a huge benefit for work-life balance, especially with a family. Compensation is competitive within the home remodeling industry, and the company offers solid benefits like 401K and private health insurance. There are also opportunities to grow and learn if you’re willing to put in the effort.

Cons

One challenge is that career growth and promotions don’t always align with seniority or long-term loyalty, which can sometimes feel discouraging after many years with the company. For employees in tech-focused roles, compensation can feel a bit below market compared to the broader tech industry, even though bonuses can help offset that in strong years. Raises without a promotion are usually modest, and while the health insurance is decent overall, coverage for some major medical needs could definitely be improved.
