Pros

Base pay + commission that's about it

Cons

My initial interview was only ten minutes long with my interviewer talking most of the conversation. So the interviewer was trying more to convince me of the validity of the company rather than screening for a great candidate for hire. They are looking to hire young and dumb, or anyone desperate enough to sell door to door without any other benefits other than pay.  ESCO company teaches you to LIE to customers to get sales. They constantly pump employees heads with the promise of big cash quick when they're only really motivating you because team leaders and mangers get up to $7 for each sale you make while they are only required to get 8 sales a week in comparison to a field rep's 15/20 quota. (Reminiscent of a pyramid scheme) They constantly call you to work on weekends even when the office is closed and they take you to low income areas throughout the city to prey on frugal residents. My pay was consistently incorrect and I even had a payroll check BOUNCE! It was only corrected after getting into contact with the CEO because the one and only HR employee was 'out sick'. What company do you know that only has ONE HR REP?! They have a high turnover rate not only because cold calling is hard but because the pay is always a problem. Consistently an issue with pay for multiple employees. Long hours 10:30am-8pm+, inconsistent pay, no vacation time, no healthcare

Pros

great office environment very motivational and energetic shayna is a beautiful person inside and out her story was inspiring the field rep that I admire was Dalia she was just such a nice person real genuine a great trainer even thought technically she wasnt my trainer she was more easier to speak to and she was willing to teach

Cons

LONG hours low pay in addition we would go to neighborhoods that are high crime and i felt like i was lying to people about a Red flag on the area i just felt bad basically lying to people to sign up for a service that they dont want oh and lets not forget that you have to be in all weather condition rain, sleet or snow and also you get penalize on certain days if you dont get a meter which means that they will make a deduction from what you already make and last but not least at the end of the work night you have wait and meet up for what idk big waist of time when all you want to do is go home probably use the bathroom eat or even get the hell off your feet
