Pros

The people are nice for the most part. Actual work schedules aren't horrible, except the late nights and travel days.

Cons

1. Be prepared to spend around $1500 for equipment when you start. 2. Appointment schedules will have you driving all over the city and are not efficient. 3. You will almost always be the highest priced product. 4. Prepare to just make the base salary for 6-8 months. They won't sell it to you like that, and they will be super proud when the jobs you sell want be installed for 6 months..you will be waiting until then to get paid a dime. 5. Prepare for a lot of customer complaints. At least 50% of my jobs complained about something. Also if the crew messed up, and the customers don't pay, you don't get paid..hooray! They crews also have the ability to move parts of your jobs to the future which also delays your pay 6. I liked the managers, but Thrasher has a knack for hiring people with no experience in the field into management positions, and in my opinion doesn't properly train them. This was evident shortly after I started as many of the selling points to work for them were drastically misstated during the interview process. 7. Too many non revenue generating activities required for sales people. If this doesn't scare you, I hope you have 6 months of living expenses in the bank.

Hi, thank you for your review. We are extremely transparent in our interview and offer process when it comes to scheduling, travel and what both parties provide, this is also listed in the offer letter that you signed, so if you could please help us understand what was not clear, that would be appreciated. Typically we educate potential candidates on travel and schedule as follows: during the week appointments predominantly during business hours, and 4 nights of travel every 3 weeks (2 weeks local, 1 week of travel). When it comes to the Cons you listed below, we have a 4.7 out of 5 on Google reviews, we pride ourselves on the ecstatic customer experience we provide. We offer multiple ways for our customers to pay so it is a rare occurrence that it doesn’t happen. We pride ourselves on the relationship between our Production and Sales team and at the end of the day, their job is to take care of the customer. Part of what we require our sales representatives to do is to continue to promote the great services and solutions we offer to our customers, so we do ask for content submission to show before and after of their product so it can help educate future customers, so in turn, it does help generate revenue for our sales reps. If you would like to speak further, feel free to call me (402) 916-4206. Thank you. Amanda, HR

Pros

I’ve been with Thrasher for two years, and this company genuinely takes care of its team. This week is a perfect example. My wife is 9 months pregnant and we are planning a home delivery, so she could go into labor at any time. Normally my sales appointments can take me over an hour from home. But this week, the team adjusted my schedule so I would stay closer to home, and they even gave me the ability to help decide how my calendar was filled. That level of trust and support means a lot, especially in a sales role. It shows that the company values people, not just numbers. Leadership is responsive, understanding, and willing to step in when life happens.

Cons

The biggest challenge is drive time. It is not unusual to have an 8 AM appointment 90 minutes from home, then drive another 90 minutes to a second appointment that is also far from home. That can add up to around 4 to 5 hours of driving in a single day, and it can happen at least once a week, sometimes more.

Pros

Work hours are good with weekends off.

Cons

You are out a lot of money up front. You would need at least three months saved up before you start. Also it's hard to track your commissions. When you leave you will not get paid on anything that you sold if it installs after you leave. That's right they keep your money!!! Only a few people are making the money they talk about.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad you valued the consistent schedule and weekends off. We want to clarify that our compensation structure is designed to reward performance, and we continuously work to improve how clearly commissions, timelines, and expectations are communicated from day one. We recognize that the ramp-up period can feel challenging, and we’re focused on strengthening support and transparency throughout that process. We also take concerns about team support seriously and are actively working to ensure every employee feels guided and set up for success. We appreciate your input and wish you the best moving forward.
