Pros

I loved the flexibility in hours, pretty much you go out get two sales and you are done for the day. Day "starts" at 11 in winter months and 12 in summer months. Day "closes" at 8 in winter 9 in summer. you can stay out in the field as long or short as you want after your 2 sales. Commission is great after your 12 sales. over 2Gs and the more sales the more money. Base pay+commission

Cons

If you don't make commission after a while they will look to do corrective actions against you. Conference calls can get annoying. This is a very some what challenging job. you really have to have the mind set and drive to do this job. You don't get paid off sales, you get paid off installs so you really have to stay on top of your sales, because if you get a bad tech and don't do your install correctly you can miss your money. Imagine month coming to an end and you have 11 INSTALLS, and you make your 12th sale and it is scheduled to get installed before commission for that month ends, and the tech decides he doesn't want to take it and does a "drive by" and takes a description of the house because he didn't see a car and didn't get out his car to knock on the door. GUESS WHAT...... you just lost your commission. and you basically worked those 11 sales for free
