Pros

Smart people, ability to take on more responsibility and learn new things, good work life balance, good promotional structure. All of this allows you to use it as a good way to get experience and have something that quickly looks good on your resume.

Cons

Compensation, benefits, hardware, and perks were pretty bad for the Bay Area, which I doubt that has changed much. People often mentioned their dislike for working at the company and their desire to leave. Turnover was high and the company was aware of it, so that is why they put little effort into trying to retain people long term. Like stated in the title, use this as a stepping stone for another job if you take a job 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.
