Pros

DWYER FAMILY has worked to turn the company around but is no more than a spokeswoman now. The Code of Values is great in theory, but rarely carried out in the sales department. Franchisees are incredible and make it worth it. Income potential is good for Waco area but lower than franchise sales industry average.

Cons

Sales department is a revolving door. Leadership is outdated and not up to date with the franchise sales norm. Most companies allow you to work from home, but top leader in sales department is a micromanager that has to continually prove he's necessary, when in reality he holds the company back. Insurance benefits are less than acceptable, unless your spouse can provide family coverage, you'll be shelling out about $1200 a month on premiums alone. "EBITDA" is the #1 priority, so if that means cutting resources to the sales teams, they don't care until you can't make your goals then its too late. Sales training has declined and new employees are left to lean on team mates taking time away from the overall productivity. Changes are made with knee-jerk reactions and not thought through. Success or failure is directly related to the team lead and their dedication to their employees or lack thereof.

Pros

The pace is fast, but the teams are competent enough to keep up with it. You're moving quickly alongside smart people, not scrambling to keep things together. Leadership is excellent and clearly sets the tone for how the broader organization operates. The culture stands out. People are kind and engaged in a way that feels real, not performative. The brands in the portfolio are strong, which makes the work easy to get behind. Comp is competitive and the operational infrastructure is already there. For anyone who wants to move fast and actually get things done, it's a great environment.

Cons

As with any growing company, some systems are still being built out and aren't fully functional yet. There are many on the team who are relatively new, and the pace is fast, so there's an element of building the plane while flying it. However, this is an opportunity to have ownership and accountability for growth.
