Pros

This company is pretty incredible, tbh. Uncapped commissions and the sales roles are W2, so you never have to worry about bringing home the $ you need. I was initially a little hesitant about their "hiring from within" practice as I knew I wanted a management role, but they act quickly on feedback from new hires and give you all the resources you want to move up as quickly as you want. I've come full circle on that as well, now that I see that everyone in a management role has a thorough grasp of anything a new hire might experience, and everyone is able to (and actually does) help. The owners are down to earth and involved in the day-to-day. While it's sales so it's competitive, the atmosphere is incredibly laid back and everyone is playing for the same team. They pour their earnings into their employees through trainings and more importantly a LOT of leisure travel - around the country and international. Overall, they train well, pay well and listen well, and it's a fun group of people to be around.

Cons

This is not a good fit for someone without a strong desire to achieve. Also not a great fit if you seek constant supervision - there are regular meetings but you have to hold yourself accountable.

Pros

I love the ability to not only work outside but also help customers at the same time. Those who work hard can make lots of money.

Cons

If you are willing to put in the time and effort, there aren't many.

Thank you for sharing your experience and highlighting one of the best aspects of a sales career at Advocate Construction. The ability to work outdoors while directly assisting homeowners in our own communities is a major draw for our team. For individuals who enjoy working with the public but are exhausted by the demanding hours and capped earning potential often found in retail, hospitality, or traditional customer service roles, this position offers a refreshing and dynamic alternative where your dedication directly translates to high rewards. We also appreciate your positive feedback on our recently simplified compensation structure. Our current structure of a reliable base salary paired with a robust system of bonuses was designed to reward those who put in the effort and drive results. We strive to support our team members by equipping them with tech-savvy tools, our company truck program, and a supportive culture that values continuous improvement and accountability. We're grateful for your hard work in the Milwaukee market and look forward to celebrating many more of your successes in the field.

Great money if you hustle, you make 6% of profit when a homeowner picks out colors for shingles, and 6% of profit if your a field team member doing the inspection.

Cons

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and for recognizing the strong earning potential available to our sales representatives. In addition to a competitive base salary, PTO and a comprehensive benefits and insurance program, we have built a monthly incentive program designed to generously reward team members for generating leads and bringing on new customers. This allows us to foster an achievement-based environment where earning potential is driven by results in the field and individual contribution. To further support our sales and field operations teams, we offer a company truck program and also equip our teams with modern technology to streamline workflows, improve efficiency, and support success in the field and office. We appreciate your constructive advice regarding communication. We rely heavily on honest perspectives from our team to help us refine our operations, as standing still simply does not align with our culture. Instead, we actively seek out ways to elevate our standards and adapt. We look forward to your continued growth with us.
