Pros

good commissions if you're good at door 2 door sales and you get to walk through a lot of neighborhoods.

Cons

door to door sales is rough, and frankly at time it's hard to walk up to so many doors just to be turned away. This was the worst job I ever had. Walking up and down streets in the heat, in the snow, in the rain, etc. Managers are always on top of you and hassling you about things that aren't important, yet they never give practical advice on cold calls or door knocking. They just berate us and want us to magically produce results.

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.
