Pros

The only pro is that you may be helping the environment if one of your jobs ever gets installed! Other than that, there aren't too many!

Cons

Too many! Liars. Don't pay you for your work, and have had a 2013 Class action law suit for doing What they do currently. Not paying their employees! Ask you to sell their product, and make sure you're no longer with the company once it's time to pay you.

Pros

Great company, great atmosphere, great benefits, supportive team and great leaders.

Cons

Long hours of standing and pitching to customers within The Home Depot and Best Buy. Listen to customer concerns and complaints. A lot of factors are out of your hands and effect your compensation.
