Pros

Benefits and pay weren’t bad especially considering the fully remote aspect. Great manager and coworkers.

Cons

The people in charge of the company really screwed everything up and turned it into a sinking ship

Pros

Company car, credit card, laptop, and phone. Hotels, food, and gas covered while traveling. Base pay is ok, and potential bonuses are attractive but unrealistic.

Cons

Always traveling, so not a true work from home job. You just don’t report to an office but have constant virtual team meetings. Constant unrealistic goals of singing homes in some of the most rural areas no matter the weather. Most of the time you drive for hours just to find out people are either not home or not interested in what you are selling. Even if we aren’t really selling anything. We are offering “free” money to just watch tv as they normally do, but because it cost nothing to participate most people think it’s a scam. The truth is there are a lot of restrictions to actually finding a compatible home willing to partake in a Nielsen ratings tv survey. Initial recruitment is too long of a process where you visit the same house over and over again. Most people could care less about a few hundred bucks over a 2 year period. Plus once they sign up the equipment needed to be installed is a hassle and you don’t get paid if field tech is unable to do the install. Pay is a joke for the time involved!

Pros

Flexible schedules, vehicles & gas provided, opportunities to travel to other markets

Cons

work-life balance in the field isn't possible if you're the primary caregiver, limited with growth opportunities outside of the field.
