Pros

They will treat you well if you perform well and as long as they need you. People are nice, friendly environment Always busy and can usually get overtime Hour lunch

Cons

Several people have been good performers and one day management decides they don’t need them any more so they hunt for minuscule things to get someone fired. Management is often too busy or gone to take care of the group let alone an individual. Training is often a joke or a waste of time. Why am I sitting in this room learning about something that doesn’t apply to me when I could be clearing one of the 50 voicemails. They will treat you like a child. If you’re in one of the “lower” positions they will let you know it by favoring those in sales or cancel dept They are paying way too little for what they expect of you. Admin assistant is a lie. You are a call Center representative. They basically trick you with that on the craigslist ad. This is a phone job and you will be on the phone from the minute you walk in to the minute you walk out and if you’re not, then you will get in trouble for having low call volume

Pros

Can make good money and has company car

Cons

Here is a my story. Upon being hired, I moved my family from Tennessee to Illinois. Our first training was in Minneapolis. At our first meeting, I was told that I am “competing” for my job with the other new hire who was sitting next to me. During training, my training manager smoked weed. When I returned to Chicago, I killed it, and sold over quota my first month. The catch was that they hired too many sales guys for the market, and they were looking to alleviate the problem by giving a performance improvement plan. Two weeks into the plan, I was exceeding goals, when my Chicago manager asked if I wanted to switch to termite sales. He said this would be a solution to the problem of having too many sales guys for the insulation sales unit. Apparently that wasn’t the case, and despite hitting quota on insulation sales, I was fired a few weeks later. And what happened to the other guy that I was competing against? They let him go another month later despite hitting quota as well. The Chicago manager had the other three sales guys living with him at the time, and they padded their stats to tell a compelling story. I heard through the grapevine that sales plummeted after we left, and the company is for sale. Unless their is a drastic change in leadership and company culture, avoid Joshua’s at all cost. The greed and deception encouraged here is unparalleled.
