Pros

Commission can be lucrative if you put the time and work into being consistent and discipline in this sales role. Time management is key and learn how to pre-call all leads to filter leads that are quality.

Cons

Leads are essentially booked through store, online and phone. Most of the leads submitted from store lacks competency as to what the senior consultants can do for client. Instead of submitting leads that results in large sale, most leads are submitted for wifi, doorbell, and leads that are $1,000 or less. Basic knowledge is what most advisors suppose to sell in store but rather submit a lead where it does a disservice as to what the in-home program entails to. Lack of knowledge training from store management and below as to what the consultants program is about.

Pros

Flexible hours, employee perks such as discounted products, offers 401(k) despite being part-time, coworkers who are nice to work with.

Cons

Management is quick to call-out sales that have nothing attached to it (warranties, card applications, memberships, or accessories). There is a rodent problem that has not been addressed for nearly a year; food and beverages cannot be sold at this store.
