Pros

Overall, my experience was decent. Decent work culture, but it varied heavily by department. Pretty small teams so you had a lot of work that kept you busy and made you learn/stay organized.

Cons

There's been so many upper management changes due to the instability of the company and market place. It seems like upper management is still trying to figure out what to do to survive. The lack of policy, processes, and accountability is astounding for a company generating as much money as they do. The disorganization among all department is a fair representation of the current state of the company. Departments lack clear and basic communication skills to effectively run operations and generate revenue. Lastly, there's very little room for advancement. There's no clearly defined org chart, which makes everything more complicated.

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.
