Pros

People who have tenure at the company seem to really enjoy it. Working remotely is a huge benefit. They do offer some training, which is helpful. The benefits are good. Additionally, they have a well-defined leadership structure and good managers.

Cons

The pay, both base and commission, is significantly lower than that of other companies. While they advertise that you *can* make six figures, it’s uncommon among their salespeople. From what I observed, maybe 10-15% achieved this. They are definitely affected by the stagnation in the real estate market, despite their claims during training and interviews that they are not. Don’t believe them. The hiring process was also misleading. They hire around 20 people at a time and weed them down to a handful within the first two weeks. Those who stay may still be assigned to other departments with lower pay than they were initially hired for. While they offer training, it leaves much to be desired. I was also told that MG leads would be a mix of cold calling and warm leads. It was exclusively cold calling leads who had already been contacted 6-12 months prior and had bad experiences. If you need money to survive paycheck to paycheck, this is not for you. You will not make sales and will lose money and time. If you have savings, kiss them goodbye. The chances of staying at the company long enough to get a decent commission are slim, but if you do, don’t expect much. This job may be a good fit if you are independently wealthy or still live at home and want to try out a sales role. Not good for people with families, serious responsibilities, career goals, or finiacial goals. They also lack back end staff and people to help customers after the sales process. People quit regularly - largely due to a heavy work load and significantly lower than average pay for account managers and marketers.

Pros

Work from home, PTO is ok

Cons

Company is focused on their sales figures only, how you get there is less important. In meetings they basically do a sales pitch to the employees about all the people they’re helping. Then outside of meetings if you spend too long actually helping a customer, it counts against you. That’s because every activity you do has a time value and at the end of the day you have to have tracked 7 hours worth of work in an 8 hour day. So it doesn’t matter how much your customers like you or how much you’ve helped them, if you’re not hitting those numbers, you’re in trouble. They’ve turned this into factory work. You do the job you were hired for, you can go above and beyond but it won’t translate to pay increases. Also most leadership positions are family members so don’t expect to move up to a new position. Most support positions are now being filled by overseas contractors in Pakistan and South America so its obvious they’re pinching pennies where they can but its not for lack of business, it’s to maximize their profit. In short, as an employee, you’ll be pushed to give everything you can and they’ll squeeze every last drop of productivity out of you with little to no reward. They when you burn out, they’ll say you couldn’t cut it.
