Pros

They give you a company car and gas card. That’s it.

Cons

This is a new division from the Marvin few may know. This is the Replacement division where they install the Ultrex fiberglass window only. Plz know they have authorized dealers and installers who sell the same product. They don’t advertise. Except on Facebook. All the leads come from Facebook ads and they are not prequalified or even confirmed. So expect many cancel at the door, no shows, or unqualified leads. They don’t tell you the truth about work orders. The back office is full of incompetent people. They offer too many additional labor items without proper pricing. The management completely micro manages you. It’s a followup sale they tell you but in actuality they want it to be a one call close. You work 6 days a week. Can go days without appointments. They promise you 10-12 leads per week, my branch averaged 2-5 per week per design consultant, maybe. They constantly try and pacify you with empty promises of more advertising. And that more leads are coming. I was there for more than 6months, and it was a struggle.

Pros

Great benefits, easy work my 3 yr old could do, good pay. CEO Paul is fantastic. Constantly giving away food or free stuff to people. Extremely safe environment. Weed is ok here in your application process and while employed but don't have an accident. They offer classes to help stop drug use or you have to take the L and lose your job for 6 months. Very positive and helpful management but they sometimes have favorites. Best place I've worked at. Period.

Cons

We now pay for proformance and if certain people do your yearly review, you won't get the raise you deserve because they simply don't know or don't care what you accomplished. Sometimes shortstaffed but keep in mind, you're there for 8 hours and go home, someone will come in behind you and pick up where you left off.
