Pros

The convenient location from NY Penn Station is the only pro that I see from this company.

Cons

Homeadvisor PREYS on recent graduates that are eager to begin their professional career. You are hired and promised FREE lunch and dinner, and if you're familiar with NY this is a PLUS!!! Upon beginning, they let you know that FREE LUNCH AND DInner is only given to you AFTER YOU HAVE 3 SALES OR 4 SUBMITS. THE LEADS- THE LEADS ARE OLD AND USED. YOU LITERALLY CALL CONTRACTORS ALL DAY AND THEY TELL YOU THAT THEY HAVE ASKED TO BE PUT ON THE DNC LIST. THEY SIMPLY SEND ANOTHER REP THE NUMBER WITHIN DAY OF SOMEONE ASKING TO BE REMOVED. SALES DRIVEN- YOU MIGHT LITERALLY HAVE TO STAND AND BEND OVER TO WORK ON YOUR COMPUTER IF THE GERS THINK YOU NEED TO STAND TO MAKE CALLS, keep in mind you're calling dead number and the same numbers that have been called for YEARS. During my time, I stood for two hours one day, bending over to use the computer to make my calls. It's literally a LUCK game of getting a sale there. PS. THEY REQUIRE U TO MAKE A SALE EVEN IF THE FORECAST HAS NO JOB IN A CONTRACTOR'S AREA.

Pros

The culture is generally positive, and leadership is accessible. Management is willing to meet with employees and listen to concerns. There are talented people throughout the organization, and the work can be rewarding if you enjoy sales and helping businesses grow.

Cons

The biggest challenge is the compensation structure. The company promotes uncapped commissions, but many employees feel earnings are effectively controlled through continually increasing quotas and changing performance targets. Revenue and nominal goals are adjusted so frequently that it can feel like the finish line is always moving. What's particularly frustrating is that the majority of the sales team often struggles to reach 100% of quota, yet goals continue to rise. This creates the perception that compensation expense is being managed through quota increases rather than by allowing top performers to fully benefit from the revenue they generate. Over time, this can discourage high achievers. Employees who consistently perform well are often expected to deliver significantly more results each year just to maintain the same level of compensation. When exceptional performance is met with ever-increasing targets instead of proportionally increasing rewards, motivation suffers.
