Pros

Flexibility to control your own book of business. Company vehicle with gas card

Cons

Pay. As most reviews have highlighted our pay is seriously lacking. Pay directly affects ability to hire as we’ve had open territories for the last year. Commission structure isn’t very lucrative as you’re constantly covering for other territories which are in the “open route”. If we felt valued in regards to pay it would make a world of difference, and no minimum raises don’t make us feel any better when other companies are willing to pay a better hourly wage. Room for advancement is lacking as you have to play into favorites whereas talent isn’t recognized and degrees aren’t considered within this new one institutional. If you want to keep your employees show us that you’re actually listening and increase wages to fill empty roles on teams and or change the commission structure as working harder for less isn’t profitable.

Pros

The actual coworkers and team members are great. Everyone is super supportive and just trying to help each other out.

Cons

Management: There’s a huge disconnect between upper leadership and the people doing the day-to-day work. Goals and priorities change constantly with very little communication, and it often feels like micromanagement takes the place of actual guidance. Work-Life Balance: The workload is completely unsustainable. You’re expected to handle an overwhelming amount of work, but you aren't given the resources or staffing to actually get it done without burning out. Expecting people to constantly work over their hours has become the norm. Lack of Growth: Career progression is pretty much non-existent. Promises of promotions or career development are thrown around, but they rarely actually happen. There’s no clear pathway to move up, so it’s easy to feel stuck and stagnant.
