Spotty
Install Technician (Current Employee), Richmond – May 7, 2013
Pros: amazing compensation: mileage, time for travel, per diem.
Cons: no guarantee of work.
Expect to be on the road for a week or two at a time - there will be no breaks - and some days you barely have enough time to get six hours of sleep between the hassle of checking into a hotel and being on time for the next job. Once you do have some down time, expect it to be for a while. There is no guarantee of work, where it will be, or how long – more... before the next job is available. – less

about as efficient as a hamster wheel vs. nuclear power
undisclosed (Current Employee), Tampa, FL – December 13, 2012
Pros: ?
Cons: ?
Typical work experience will include high paced stressful environment, poor time management, and lack of sense of urgency. Misuse of resources/staff, and exceptionally expensive to maintain employment
Basic Merchandising, Construction/remodel, and rack installation. company is growing and diversifying, but with little regard fro its employees and the – more... nature of the service they provide. Little room for growth/promotion,( based on experience and academia...) Many qualified and exceptional employees are overlooked in the staffing and promotion process. – less

challenging,wide range of personalities in co-workers:the hardest part of the job is not knowing if work will be steady, most enjoyable was the ability to see an empty building become a new store

Dont work for the Illinois branch
Merchandiser (Former Employee), IL, CA, MI, IN, MN – March 9, 2012
Pros: travel
Cons: too many to list
The Illinois district manager is a low life that assigns work to people that fall asleep at work instead of hard working employees that actually deserve to work. He'll promise you a raise but you'll never see it. The company will lay you off due to no work being available in the city, but they will say you quit so you cant collect unemployment
