Pros

- The owner of the company is a super nice guy, treats everyone as an individual - Managers are down to earth, cool people - Company iPhone, iPad, and work materials provided - They pay for all your gas up to $200 per month - Dogs are allowed in the office and you will often find random doggos wondering around looking for attention

Cons

- Team Lead/Senior Project planners seem more entitled than willing to help you out or care what you have to say - Training is next to nothing. They throw all this information at you within a one week period and expect you to figure it out. - Training doesn't include enough objection handling or product knowledge - MOST OF ALL... Say goodbye to work life balance. This is such a demanding job and I don't feel they are transparent enough about this in the interview process. Expect to work 50+ hours per week. If you aren't working yourself to the bone, you will not have success. - You get home and work follows you. If I wanted to enjoy my days off, my mind would still be stress ridden with all the follow up I still had to do. - They say they are there to support you and train you throughout your entire career with them, but this does not feel genuine. They do not put in the time to get you where you need to be. They expect you to just work more on your days off to get trained by other PP's - You will put a LOT of miles on your car and driving in Denver absolutely wrecks your vehicle - Meetings are extremely lengthy and frequent. And feel pointless. Expect to be at meetings from 9am-11am apx, then go on estimates from 12:30-8pm - Commission structure is just ok.. top sales people are making about $100k, while low to average are making $50-80k. Not the highest paying sales job you can find. - You are paid out bonuses on revenue, closing rate, amongst a few other stats, vs earning a flat percentage of every job you book - Over all, this seems like way too much for one person to keep track of and still stay sane at the same time

Pros

Welcoming environment with leadership that practices what they preach. Friendly and motivated employees create a culture of working hard, cheering each other on. Hard work is financially rewarded! Ethical company that has a solid reputation with homeowners they serve.

Cons

Parking can be tricky especially on concert days (close to the Junkyard) but if you get there early enough there are plenty of spots. All parking is free and I feel safe. Super close access to I-25.

Pros

Vivax is literally the best place I have ever worked, by FAR. I cannot say enough good things about this place from an employee standpoint. I have never felt so supported, seen, cared for, and motivated in my life. This place is special. They care so much about each individual employee and their success at this company. They are actively trying to promote those that work hard. I am excited to go to work every day. Not only are the leaders so caring and supportive, but my co workers hit the same bar. Everyone is in it for the team and making sure everyone is taken care of. We have so much fun and it motivates me to work hard for them and their success, as well. I see myself at Vivax for life and cannot wait for the future here. Working for good people that you care about and feeling like you are making a difference makes such a difference in enjoyment at work.

Cons

The parking situation could be better and I do wish the benefits were cheaper but I am thankful to have them. I do also get burnt out because being an SDR is draining in a lot of ways, but the team and management always keeps me going.
