      Pros

      Health benefits are great. They offered a package for family and single.

      Cons

      Management doesn’t help when there is a problem. They want you to take care of it. Sexism is still there. Woman are not respected and treated less then a man. Obvious problems are not dealt with.

      Pros

      Great training for route managers, sales & branch management!! They teach you everything you need to know to do PC work. Great trade to learn and great training facility in Atlanta top notch.

      Cons

      South East region has the worst Regional & Assistant regional managers (commercial) I have ever worked for, their motto " The beatings will stop when the morale goes up!" The Regional manager demands respect but has NEVER did anything to earn it – it’s just owed to him because of his position – and he’ll tell you that too. The Assistant Regional manager ALWAYS has a hidden agenda!

      Pros

      Great week long training in Atlanta. Much on the job training and continuous support from branch manager, who can make your experience good or horrible. Company vehicle and gas card.

      Cons

      Long hours. Been working 55+ hours per week Mon - Sat because we are below projected sales. When slow time of the year (Nov - Feb) thay want you working extra hours to pull sales. During the peak season, they view "time as money" and want you out there taking advantage of it. I suppose this is one major reason for the high turnover. They also do a poor job of getting you leads in the slow season. I was handed one maybe two a week. You have to call yourself and set up the remaining 25+ appointments yourself. The pay could be very good but when adjusted to a 40 hour week, it comes out to ~$25K a year. If you have no family or social life and are willing to be married to a job, this is for you.
