Pros

Good sales process, don’t have to pressure clients into signing contracts at first appointments.

Cons

Managers scam salespeople to spend their own money on gas driving all over the place. Not transparent about how to receive gas reimbursement so that they can deny repaying gas money even though they claim gas is reimbursed. Requires employees to work a minimum of 6 days a week but then refuses to pay new employees “company holidays” even though employees are expected to work weekends which would make up for unpaid “company holidays”. Must take appointments from 9AM until 9-10PM. Management is clueless about company policies. Management doesn’t know what kinds of systems that they actually install. Was told during training they do not install on metal roofs but then found out my install team that the do in fact install on metal roofs. CEO could care less how employees are treated even when they are selling and making the company money.

Pros

No pros to list here.

Cons

The worst company to work for, extremely high turnover due to incompetent management and owners of the company. They have products they want you to sell that aren’t even launched, then get confused when deals fall apart. They want “yes men” to work for them, any individuality is reprimanded. They encourage you to do anything to get the deal done, even if that means drinking alcohol or smoking with customers. Safety is not a priority for them even slightly. In their words, whatever it takes to get it done. Bizarre place to work.
