Coastal Windows & Exteriors

I will give a fair and balanced review of my time with the company.  

Pros: 
Flexible Schedule (to a point): You are expected to run appointments Mon-Fri 9-7pm and Saturday 9am to 4pm.  It's relatively easy to ask for time off, they expect a lot of advanced notice, but in general, your schedule is pretty fluid. 

Money Making Opportunity: If you have a lot of experience in the In-Home Sales field, you can do well at this company.  There is definitely money to be made.

Quality Products: Everything they sell is high quality and come with great warranties. 

Nice People:. The owners are very kind, honest and fair.  They care about their employees and are willing to work with you to show you the ropes. 

Cons: 

Training: Almost no structured training, mostly just the manager talking at you for hours on end in no particular order about whatever pops into his head.  That being said, they are willing to do 1 on 1 training with you if you ask for it. 

Compensation: This job is full commission with no benefits.  Which is not a big deal if you are a top producing Salesman, but it takes a while to get there.  The job really should be Base Salary PLUS Commission (at some reduced level) at the very least.  The business is a revolving door because of this. 

Follow Up: The in-homes sales business is by and large a Same Day Sale business.  You are forced to do A LOT of follow up and 2-Stepping.  Also be prepared to constantly put notes in the CRM.  99 times out of 100 the follow up is a complete waste of time. 

Management: Owners are great people and they've hired some new promising staff, but the head manager is a problem there.  No great leadership ability combined with poor interpersonal skills (talking about coworkers behind their backs, insults, etc.) Sales Reps would probably stay longer and produce more with a change in management. 

Overall, if you have experience in the In-Home Sales business, you can do very well here, but I caution entry level people to pursue a different opportunity. 

Working with coastal as a freelancer has been nothing but positive. With most contracted positions, sometimes it can feel alienating—Coastal, and it's owners, has gone above and beyond to make my work matter, help me feel connected to my colleagues, and inspire me to take action each and every day. I do come into the office approximately two days a week—and the two dogs in the office always brighten my day. Creatively speaking it's wonderful to know that I can bring new ideas to the table and that they are always heard. To future applicants or employees, I encourage you to speak up, as the owners will always remain open to listening, learning, and growing with you. They are clearly passionate about this industry and their people. I have never seen a for-profit company do so much work in the community through events, donations, and initiatives. It's truly inspiring and I look forward to working with Coastal.

I have only worked at Coastal Windows and Exteriors for a short period of time, but I am amazed by the education and support. I am a sales rep within the company and their commitment to excellence is astonishing. I learn something new every day and that alone makes it a wonderful place to work. But wait there's more. The managers, staff and, the owners of the company are wonderful supportive people that want me to grow with them. I would recommend Coastal to anyone looking for an amazing workplace experience.

Coastal Windows and exteriors is a fun and productive workplace. The best way that I can explain working for Coastal it’s like you’re part of the family. The owner does little things all the time to ensure that you have the best working environment. She literally keeps the kitchen stocked to make sure all the employees have lunch and snacks throughout the day. 
 

Having worked in both construction and sales, all I can say is these guys have it figured out. Phenomenal training, constant support, and highly skilled install teams that make selling a breeze knowing your customers will be taken care of.

After 7 years at my previous job I wasn't sure how I was going to feel starting something new like this and everyone here has done everything in their power to make me feel as welcome as possible. 
My first day felt like the next day of work somewhere you've been forever. 
The encouragement and drive to grow and be better every day is really felt here and you can tell it's genuine. 

Coastal Windows & Exteriors is a great place to work. All departments get along and work together as a team making it a drama-free and fun work place. Owners and managers are very supportive, they always make sure you are taken care of and give you opportunities to grow in your career. You will never feel undervalued at Coastal! 

Still has some growing to do but great company, can trust in the work that they do and stand by their customers and their employees. Open door policy directly to owners and management is great, and the managers are very knowledgable.

Without a doubt, the worst run company I have ever worked for. If you can deal with dysfunction and dishonesty then you may be okay here. Otherwise stay away. Many stories about people having to fight to get paid and a constant cash flow struggle.

Great place to work. Everyone is helpful and encouraging. From the owner to the office personnel, everyone is supportive and wants you to succeed! If you put in the effort it is immediately recognized.
