Pros

There is a ton of turn over which creates opportunity to advance. Management really doesn't understand or get involved with what's going on so you can have all the work/life balance you want. That flexibility and lack of pressure is what keeps some people around.

Cons

They are telling employees to get on here and write good reviews to drown out the truth. This is a terrible place to work. The culture is awful and management does not practice or implement a framework for respect or openness. It's worse if you're not a white male. I'm a great employee and anyone I've worked for can tell you that, but trying to utilize the open door policy here got me severely burned and a bad reputation. Your best option is to stay quiet, keep your head down, and collect a paycheck until you can get out.

I'm sorry that your experience with us is not positive. It sounds like you've tried to express your concerns to local management. Part of our Open Door policy is that if you don't get resolution or aren't comfortable discussing a concern with your manager, you can feel free to discuss with any manager in any department in any location. The only way to truly resolve concerns is through these direct conversations. Our leadership cares deeply about truth, ethics and respect. I hope you'll reach directly to discuss further. Thanks.

Pros

Good people work there. Management is clueless They have about 10 mangers for 60 people. To many chiefs, not enough Indians kinda thing. Don't believe all the positive reviews. I was I.T. Although I was not management, I would sit in on the management meeting. They ask the new sales people to write a review. Of course they are not going to say this place sucks if their manger asks them to write a review. So take the positive reviews with a grain of salt. Being a cold call sales person is not an easy. They has a very high turn over. The worst I've seen in any company. On average, about 10 people quit a month, and they hire about the same .. Some of the sales people make good money, most don't. If you're going to work the I.T. side? Its not a normal I.T. job. They will ask you to do a lot of unrelated tasks such as cleaning refrigerators, building cubicles, putting together chairs, and desks. Painting walls, hanging and framing pictures. Putting together trophy cabinets. Foosball tables. Basket ball hoops. I swear, I'm not making this up....lol!If they order something that's not put together, you guessed it, The I.T. department is putting it together. It can be very frustrating. Have been in the I.T. field for 20 years, I have never seen a company treat their I.T. department like that especially when they have a half dozen managers just standing around doing nothing all day. If you're looking for a temp job to make the ends meet? Its do able. A career? Not so much. Worked there for a year and a half, no raise. Only pays about $21.00 an hour. The only true benefit for working for Homes? There is some nice people that work there. But I would not recommend this job. There's better ones out there.....

Cons

Dead end job No advancement.

Thanks for sharing your experience. As 1 of only 2 IT professionals in our San Diego sales office, I can understand how your experience does not reflect the experience of the sales team members and the majority of the employees in the office. Meetings directed toward them regarding sales activity, goals, new product rollouts and enhancements, etc. would certainly not resonate with you in the same way. Still, we appreciate the feedback and we'll make sure we take it into account as we seek to hire new helpdesk personnel. Thanks again.

Pros

Great work hours! One of the friendliest and supportive sales environment I’ve been apart of. The job specific training is very educational and helpful throughout the sales training process. You must be hard working, but you will get in return what you put in. Overall enjoy my job!

Cons

Have to put in Your dials to receive results. Getting in contact with the agents can be challenging at times, and clients don’t always make their appointments due to being so busy!

Thank you for this 5-star-review! I'm happy to hear you like the hours and that the training is helpful. We continue to work to improve on both of those fronts with new shifts being offered and a new training process coming this summer. Keep us posted on what you think of these changes. Yes, like any sales job, what you put in is what you get out. Appreciate the fact that you recognize that and are willing to contribute the effort! Thanks again!
