Pros

If you can have repeat contractors come to you can make decent money.

Cons

Your always watching your back worrying that another sales rep including assistant manager will steal your clients when your not around or take a percentage of your sales because they added a couple of items to your quote. Some sales Reps will go around and hide a sale that you worked on and put it in another name so you end up with nothing. The sales quota is stupid its based on gross profit and works out to a 10 to 1 margin ie you get a grand for every 10,000.00 in profit you sell not gross. The new sales Reps work hard selling, pulling orders, answering phones and cleaning etc . The old Reps have repeat contractors so they meet there quotas pretty easy they don't work as hard as the new reps. If you dont make draw a couple of times or have enough in open orders you gone. Large turn over rate!

Pros

There's a system to follow and it's an open ceiling to how much you can make.

Cons

The only con I came across over the years, is candidates lying on their resume's and wasn't willing to be coachable because they thought they knew everything.

Pros

Some of the floor staff are great people to work with.

Cons

The core issue here is a management culture that has completely decayed. It is an "old school" environment in the worst way possible—rigid, out of touch, and fueled by greed. There are blatant double standards where leadership expects total flexibility and "hustle" from staff, but offers zero support or fair treatment in return. The focus is entirely on the bottom line at the expense of employee morale. It feels like the company is stuck in a bygone era, refusing to modernize its approach to work-life balance or fair compensation. Career growth feels stagnant unless you fit into their specific "inner circle."
