Pros

You get accounts without having to lift a finger

Cons

The accounts you receive, you get 1 day to decide to take it or not You're severely underpaid for the accounts you get because of the money you owe open works for getting you the account You never see the contract that's automatically signed if you clean the building 3 times If you clean a building and they complain and it's proven that their complaints we're false, you still lose the building and have to pay for it literally for years Your DMs will not help you. They only tell you what you want to hear to shut you up for the time being. Anyone above regional management has no idea what's going on

Pros

Most team members are supportive and collaborative The job can be fulfilling You are making a difference in peoples lives doing this type of work

Cons

Goals and expectations are communicated halfway through the month or quarter Performance is measured against targets employees were not given upfront Commission structures change mid-year, impacting pay after work has already been done Promotions and public recognition feel performative rather than stable Employees have been promoted to senior or director-level roles and then terminated shortly after Frequent process and priority changes without training or transition time Speaking up or raising concerns is treated as being “difficult” rather than constructive Employees who question decisions often find themselves pushed out High burnout and constant turnover This company lacks consistency, transparency, and basic fairness. Expectations are not clearly defined at the start of a period, yet employees are still held accountable for results. Compensation plans change without warning, which undermines trust and creates financial uncertainty. Leadership decisions feel reactive and unpredictable. It is not uncommon to see someone promoted, publicly recognized, and then terminated shortly after. This creates a culture of fear rather than motivation. Raising concerns or offering feedback is not encouraged in practice. Once you speak up, you are labeled as a problem instead of someone trying to improve the company. At that point, it becomes clear you should start looking for other employment.
