Pros

The managers locally are very nice and try to help you. Most other sales consultants are nice people and easy to work with with a few exceptions.

Cons

This company should have the word Greed in its name.The company makes millions of dollars and guess what, they have given one 10 dollar raise in all the years in business. They keep asking you to do more and never compensate at all for it. Its pathetic. The so called leaders at the top just make more and more and dont give anything back to its hard working employees.

Pros

High integrity culture. National locations. Quality Brand.

Cons

Misinform multiple new hires during the hiring process. Mid - high level opportunities. Advancements are strongly determined by who you know in the good ole boys arena. Though performance is a key factor. Operations opportunity for mid - high level mgmt is limited for females.

Cons

You work outside most of the time in the heat and cold and rain and snow. Some times there under staffed and the managers don't care.
