Pros

. Nice office . Nice coworkers . Good Medical Insurance

Cons

. Company politics - Many directors and managers are causing dramas at QS. They would say one thing and do another. Fake and only think about their own promotions but not help their employees to grow. Not sure why QS hired these people to manage the company? But the employees are generally nice. . Working long hours but salary is very low- QS is definitely very cheap when it comes to salary. They would expect you to work 12 hrs but only pay you very low salary. They usually give you less then 20k of what is out there. So don't even bother to work here like a cheap labor. . Only think about their own profit but never want to invest on the employees - they would get rid of you when you have no value to them. A nice company would grow with you. Clearly not here.

Pros

The company can offer strong earning potential and a large enough operation to create real opportunities for sales reps who are in the right segment with the right support at the right time. There are talented people across the organization and certain teams can be collaborative and knowledgeable. The business also has legitimate demand in the home services space, and there is value in the products when the fit is right. For someone who performs well in a fast paced, metric driven environment, there is room to make good money and gain solid experience.

Cons

The culture can feel highly numbers driven in a way that sometimes prioritizes activity volume over strategic selling and long term fit. Management quality varies significantly, and communication around expectations, compensation, and deal flexibility can be inconsistent. In some cases, sales reps may feel pressured to push opportunities that are not ideal fits, which can create frustration and hurt long term client success. There also seems to be limited alignment between leadership, sales, and support teams at times, which can make it harder to execute effectively and build confidence in the process.
