Pros

Benefits are pretty good, considering the current state of healthcare. Low stress sale.

Cons

Bottlenecks at factory slow throughput to a crawl. Building materials are not ordered on time. Disconnect between admins and revenue producers. Toxic culture at the factory. Management fails to vet subcontractors. Pay is low for hours worked. Chargebacks on commissions due to canceled orders. Supply never meets demand, due to manufacturing and operations inefficiencies. Supply chain management is sub-optimal, at best. Long lead times for building delivery. You are on your own, management and customer service will never answer the phone. You will have zero, I repeat, zero, referrals after customers get the Tuff Shed treatment. Blame game played on all levels.

Pros

- Easy product to sell - Competition truly does not compete with quality - Employee owned company (ESOP is earned every year, it’s free money) - True sense of purpose. It’s a job where you don’t realize how much of an impact you’re making until you realize EVERYONE has a shed - Pay is good, you can make more than you would think. - Atmosphere is great, management is easily accessible and can help answer questions. Getting information isn’t a problem.

Cons

Stores are open 7 days a week, your schedule will fluctuate and weekends is a must. Great for your wallet, bad if you like having a standard Monday - Friday.
