Pros

None that I can think of.

Cons

If you enjoy sales meetings with jokes about masturbation, hookers and routinely being mocked and given "pet names" by management or having things routinely thrown at you you'll love working here. Besides, where else can you get paid for ripping off people by convincing those who can't afford it to buy their overpriced 1000 windows? The high pressure sales tactics they employ begins with management and infects the organization from the top down. In my brief time there I personally saw a member of management engage in all of the above conduct; when I complained to the branch manager nothing was done. I also heard the assistant manager brag about getting thrown out of a customer's house due to the high-pressure tactics, (the customer had to threaten to call the police to get him to leave his home). It's truly amazing this place stays in business. They routinely tell customers they're eligible for a 100 a window "rebate" for their old windows. In reality they give no such thing; Rather, they just start their prices out so high that after the "rebate" you're paying just what they would have charged anyway. They assure people their windows are so expensive because they are "investment grade," but you can get about the same quality and efficiency ratings by buying an upgraded window from one of the discount franchises (for about a third the cost!) As for their vaunted quality and "service," one elderly person I called on had been a previous customer who had a problem with shoddy installation; in spite of multiple attempts calling Erie he could not get them to come fix the problem. If you're a professional sales consultant who doesn't want to lie for a living and wants to be able to look at yourself in the mirror look elsewhere. Don't believe just the bbb site or bbb accrediting, (although there are complaints there too). Check other sources like yelp and ripoffreport.com. Where there's smoke there's fire, and if this many people have had the same type of complaints just think of all those who didn't have the time or felt too embarrassed they had fallen for Erie's snake-oil promises to complain. Run, don't walk from this company!!
