Pros

Coming right out of college could easily make 60000 but working 9 to 8 Monday thru Saturday

Cons

Depending on where office is, you can easily have three company appointments that can add up to 200 plus round trip miles a day. Weekly mileage pay after taxes is 85.00. Have spent more than that easily in two days. Same old advice every day about how everyone above you worked their tails off and never had a customer that just couldn't afford a premium priced system and typically 45.00 plus per month. Despite having apptsut on you as late as 10 pm, all bonuses revolve around finding business that was not web generated or call ins. Weird from the largest player in the country, and difficult to schedule effectively. Pricing structure favors hugely potential clients that do not call the Corporate 800 number, but are found by door knocking, etc. if you call in to ADT, then pricing structure says you have to pay for example 5 times the install price vs someone not already in the system, and their systems check for not only names but addresses. Crazy in the long run.

Great First Job

Pros

ADT was a great first job for me. I started when I was 20 and was there for about 4 years. ADT had great benefits, was flexible with my pregnancy, and had reasonable pay.

Cons

It is extremely difficult to change your set schedule once you are put onto it. It can take years to get a decent schedule. I also had issues with unfairness regarding company policy.
