Pros
Gas card, car allowance, and some easy commissions. Manager was very flexible when dealing with time off, etc. It is good to go out and deal with all different sorts of people, property managers, owners, etc. Very easy money converting new elevator purchases to extended warranties; most owners of new elevators want to stick with original manufacturer.
Cons
Poor management, no communication, complete lack of training. "Training" consists of going out in the field for 3 months working with the mechanics. Basically you are a helper for this amount of time, and though I do place value on being out there with these guys, there are many aspects of the business that I was required to learn on my own. Ungodly amounts of paperwork. Service manager had to approve hours and material on every repair order (before delivered to customer) so had to rely on whatever was convenient for him. These could have only been a challenge at my branch, but all of this was enough for me to leave.
