Unrealistic sales goals

Pros

Great and fun place to work, I love almost every aspect of the job

Cons

Extremely sales focused. All management cares about is sales, and little else. You could be a terrible technician, but if you are selling $3k a month they don't care. Makes you feel dishonest to customers, since you are under immense pressure to sell anything+everything. Health insurance is extremely terrible, expensive with terrible benefits. I pay $600 a month for just me and my deductible is $7k. Cheaper to decline insurance and seek an independent provider.

Lots of money was made, but it wasn't worth it.

Pros

Lots of money, good benefits, company car, gas card

Cons

Micro managed like crazy. You work all day, then go home and work some more for free. Hours of phone calls every day to get your schedule filled for the next. Lots of Saturdays and afternoons. Kiss your family goodbye in the spring and summer.
