Pros

There are not many pros in working for these people, to be sure. You get to learn how to paint, and get good exercise. That's about it.

Cons

Horrible pay. No training, (although their clever ads pretend and suggest otherwise). Horrible and useless management, quick night-time text messages (blurted and impolite, impersonal) to send you to your next assignment. The work is strenuous and long. Breaks and lunch are not suggested, YOU have to ask for them, whilst management and supervisors often stuff their faces and take off while you remain to do the work. Run by college kids, (no offence to the young) but that's what one might expect for a company run by children. Oh, and getting texts and such returned to you... good luck, very slow.

Pros

- Uncapped earning and personal development - Be your own boss - Insurance, branding, and direction

Cons

- This is often seen as a great opportunity during school years, but it is a large learning curve and time commitment to get the business started. Time budgets were critical for success - Often battling reviews - easily won over if you show the potential customer that they need to see and trust you as your own franchisee, not the reviews of other franchisees. - Royalty was significant early on.
