Pros

guaranteed $12 an hour in a commission based sales job. Good Benefits Paid time off after 90 days

Cons

Where to even begin... The commission structure is terrible. only top 5% of Reps can make a living here. Only 2 of them make a consistent paycheck The product they sell with the exception of SEO is garbage. They make untrue claims and almost every client you get will want to cancel The turnover rate is unbelievable Managers pick who get the leads. So if you aren't on the top of the friends list.... sorry about your luck. Back to cold calling all day. I could go on for hours so I'll stop here.

Thank you for the feedback. Homes.com has an open door policy and, I'd like to invite you to visit with me personally to discuss your concerns if you feel you have not been heard by your management team. Additionally, we have an internal Ideas email that any team member can use to express their ideas. Many of those ideas have been implemented. With that said, allow me to address the issues you raised in this forum. Our incentives are designed to reward activity and results, and we are proud of the competitive incomes our sales representatives earn. Like any sales position, it takes commitment and activity to generate the highest income. In terms of the leads we provide to our sales representatives, we work hard through effective marketing to generate leads. Leads are not provided based on a "friends list" and we have, in fact, tested many different methods for supplying leads based on employee feedback we've gathered. Our SEO Fuel product is top-notch. I'm glad you agree. We offer many competitively priced solutions for our customers to get in front of a targeted audience and more effectively run their businesses. Are we the best fit for every customer? Maybe not, but we have countless testimonials from customers, some of whom have been loyal to us for many years. In fact, the customer "turnover" that you mention is at an all-time low as we continue to focus on delighting our customers. Again, I hope you'll take me up on the opportunity to discuss these concerns in person. Erin Ruane, Vice President of Sales

Pros

A lot of old technologies to maintain. You don't have to worry bout getting rich.

Cons

The pay is much lower than market so everyone leaves after a year or two. The management is incompetent to say the least.

Pros

Website is nice. Solid fringe benefits.

Cons

The company treats their sales people like crap. They charge back/reverse/claw back every sale you make once customer cancels. Company makes their money out you just get a loan. They find every way they can to not pay you what you earned. They micromanage every little thing you do and require activity levels that are extremely unrealistic. Stress levels are through the roof. Things are so bad the president recently walked away right after major launch. A miserable place to work as a sale professional. The absolute WORST comp plan I have ever been a part of. There’s a million things I can go on about. If you are considering this company, reach out to 2-3 reps and ask them to talk with you.
