Pros

Every other weekend off, casual, nice at first.

Cons

Terrible owner, terrible management. Really is owned by religious Mormon who only places other Mormons as management. It's a group of kids, turns out it's just like high school! Pay is awful! Everyone's pay rate is pulled out of thin air. College grad gets paid $15 because she's qualified, but her job is to stamp envelopes for 8 hrs? Everyone get's $9, $10, $11 to do actual work with mandatory overtime.

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.
