Pros

Name recognition, although primarily geared toward residential, creates wrong perception that all we do is residential.

Cons

Low pay. Promote sales people from Small Business to manage Commercial team, therefore they cannot help anyone with anything. IT cannot integrate all of their systems due to disparate software systems required by many acquisitions. Basically, you waste valuable time in front of a computer instead of customers. So much minutiae prevents the very sales activity management wants, thus you cannot make the money you could if we were nimble and efficient. Install management and sales management at odds constantly so it's a fight to get your jobs done without customer dissatisfaction.

Pros

They have good vision and dental benefits, PTO, holiday pay, and tuition reimbursement. They also are good about giving you the days off you want as long as it's months in advance. So know your plans for the year

Cons

They have horrible performance based pay bonuses and make it harder each year to earn them. I started off getting the highest bonus on my third month working there and had little or no bonus after working there for 4 years. No advancement within unless you kiss butt no matter how good your performance is

Salary is in line and ok.

Micro-Managed, robotic, and degrading atmosphere, therefore, high turnover.
