Pros

Some freedom regarding your schedule. You generally go where the money is (hopefully). Territories are fairly flexible, changing.

Cons

Low pay. "New" commission structure that doesn't get you paid until the install is complete. Thus, if you have an idiot install manager (I did), your pay gets held up until the idiot gets his "crew" to finish the job. He also has a budget. That means he will go over any contracts and make sure that he "gets his". This ultimately can hold up or stop completely a job from being completed.

Pros

I've worked for the company for 40+ years, I'm treated with respect and my efforts are recognized by my Director and other ADT leaders. They give me the autonomy to manage my department and value my experience and insight. They offer a solid benefits package. ADT leads by example with their cultural markers and ensures that rules and laws are followed. I love the collaboration I have with our other departments.

Cons

Obviously, we all want more money, especially given the prices of everything, it's always nice to make more money, but I've checked the compensation and benefits in similar positions outside of ADT and I feel ADT is paying a fair wage and when I factor in the benefits package, they are above average in overall compensation.
