Pros

Flexible schedule which is nice. Unfortunately the reason it is flexible is because there are not enough appointments for everyone.

Cons

You are asked to do other people's job without getting paid to do it and without any training. Dealing with the head office in west Caldwell is extremely difficult since no one is willing to help AWFUL pay structure Bigger appointments are given to the reps who have been there the longest. No chance for new people to make money Forced to lie to homeowners and explain the window is different than the Pella window you can buy at Lowes There is 0 difference.

Pros

1. The pay is decent. 2. Decent benefits

Cons

It seems the company has a habit of making changes that are not beneficial to employees or customers. Leadership just complains instead of being proactive to implement positive change. 3. I have never in my life experienced anything like working at this company in such a negative way. To witness upper management blatantly lie on me without any proof. And to receive the support
