What is the best part of working at the company?
The pay plan and the culture. The commission and bonus structure is the best I’ve seen in my many years in the business and MORE than makes up for the face that’s it’s a 1099/3508 job considering the fact that it also allows you to write off your expenses. The culture is great, the expectations are high but they aren’t anything that the management wouldn’t expect of themselves. 

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The schedule and lead flow. Any in-home sales job has a tough schedule but as long as you’re preforming the management will work with you. Lead flow can be a little peaky but not different than I’ve seen at any other company so that’s pretty par for the course. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
It’s a high energy, high expectations sales culture. The goal is constant improvement and they meet that with weekly meetings and quick team calls in the morning to prepare the team for the day. If you’re performing you’re going to make so much money that you’ll be happy. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Lead slots are 10,2,&6. They avoid weird times to keep you schedule more consistent. You’re going to get 1,2,or3 leads in a day depending on the time of year, over all lead flow, and how you’re performing. Lots of high intent same day sets as well.

Working for this company is tough in every aspect. You live on the road, putting miles and miles upon miles on your car and the wear and tear is very real, along with the cost of maintaining it. 
Commission is decent when you actually sell, until they find a reason to cut your commission in half or deduct 2% for some reason you weren't even aware of. 
They micromanage. They force you to record yourself in every customers home so there is no privacy whatsoever, ever, between you and the customer. Anyone in the company that has the app can listen to your recorded sales appointments in the customers home. 
They are a great company for the customer but not so great for the sales reps who work so hard at their own expense in the field chasing the possibility of a sale. 
The schedule is horrible. You have to be available to work 3 appointments a day 5 days a week and one of those days has to be a Saturday or Sunday. 
You are required to attend two sales meetings a week without pay and they last 90 minutes to two hours every single time. 
And this company loves to make you role play over and over and over again at every meeting in front of everyone even if you don't want to do it. 
Some managers are cool and somewhat easy going but some are arrogant and rigid. You have to walk a fine line and narrow path or they boot you to the curb in an instant.
You feel expendable every day.

“The whole Management team works together to reach the same goals from different angles and perspectives. We each have our own roles and we brainstorm and collaborate together to solve any problems and work towards reaching new goals. Nothing is easy when you have high goals for any company and that means working hard to come up with new strategy plans to be successful and thinking outside of the box. This job has been a learning process throughout these years of hiring employees on my team that had no desire to work together as a team. Overcoming those obstacles has helped me become a better Manager to understand the difference from who is committed to working together and who is just here for a paycheck. I love working for this company for many reasons but mainly because of the familiar culture that brings us together as we strive to help the company grow and be successful. I’m also very thankful for the holiday pay and PTO because I’ve never had all of those with any company I’ve ever worked for.”

 

Seems to be a company that cares. They give kudos to anything and anyone under the sun, but I think it’s do distract from what really goes on. The company has some questionable hiring practices, they hire majority only Christians, if it’s obvious you’re not Christian or part of the LGBTQ community they will certainly not hire, they don’t want their imagine tarnished since they’re a “faith based” company. a couple of the officers of the company also have questionable motives. If you don’t like to be micromanaged, this is a place you’d enjoy as managers very seldom get involved, unless your performance makes them look bad, then you will have your manager in your face day in and day out. Good flexibility on schedule, you can come and go as you want and really no one says anything. They have no health insurance although they  claim they do, no dental or vision. You have to wait an entire year for PTO. Extremely long interview process, little flexible for being unique as you have to confirm to their “culture”, if you don’t they manage you out. 

This company is all about people and culture.  They strive to live their core values of Integrity, Excellence and Service and it shows in all that they do.  They have a people-first mindset that is focused on learning and development so it is not just a job, but rather it is a career.  The company's owners are directly involved in the business and have an open door policy to hear from anyone in the company who has a good idea or needs help with something.  Management is team oriented and will roll up their sleeves to ensure everyone is successful.  The company is growing fast and the pace is full-throttle most of the time.  However, for those that thrive in that kind of environment and enjoy a friendly, competitive spirit, this is a great place to build a career.

I have never worked for a company where top down the executives care about their employees to the degree they do here.  They truly care and it shows in everything they do.  I've also never worked for a company whose owner/founder was so committed to building community among employees and in the community.  The founding of an organization like Matthew 6 Ministries is something that is not common within the business world.  It is rare that a for-profit business has the vision or makes the time to commit to something like starting up a seperate entity and supports it with company proceeds.  Quite simply, the work I do as outreach manager of M6M would not be possible if not for the support of Window & Bath Expo!  The reason M6M has been able to donate the thousands of dollars to organizations working to end hunger and homelessness is because so many of their usual expenses (rent, utilities, transportation costs, supplies, etc. have been covered by the company.  Work for this company and you WON'T be sorry about you decision!!!

This company will lie to you in the ad about compensation. First they say there is health insurance (there isn't). Then they will switch your compensation plan. The company told me they are switching from my $18/hr + commission to only $500/wk + commission. There are stuff that are out of your control that affect your commission which makes it a real possibility you will only get paid $500 a week, which no one can survive on. For example, the company will make you confirm each appointment with the call center, who takes well over a minute to pick up, even taking over 2 minutes usually. Customers lose their patience and walk away, causing you to lose the appointment, which in turn causes you to lose out on commission. Not to mention during the last two months of the year you will make less appointment because people are out of town or having people over for the holidays which makes them not able to sit for an appointment, and if there is an election that year you will not make many appointments in November.

The company has great management whose work ethics are held high with integrity, ownership and the ability to collaborate as a team on working towards the same goals from different angles.  This is the best company I have every worked for because we are committed and work together as a team and brain storm how to find a solution, solve a problem and how to reach future goals together.  I love seeing how happy our customers truly are after we install a new bathroom they needed or when people tell me how much our windows cut down their energy bill.  This company honestly loves to help those who are in need and gives back to the community in many ways.  I also love the paid time off and holiday pay!! 

No doubt training is good. But once on the field  it is different story.You will drive 200 to 300 miles per day and when you get to the costumer's house SURPRISE SURPRISE....not interested or already canceled, ect .Most of those leads are  worthless. They make you record the whole presentation(unbelievable ).Than you have managers that have 1 to 2 yrs of sales experience,try to teach me "the right way to sell a overpriced windows. Both of my trainers quit within 1 month.They were great.I have over 20 yrs in sales.Do not need their endless meetings every other day...even on my day off.THIS IS 1099 job??????.MICROMANAGING is this company signature.DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME,working here.EMPTY PROMISES CRAZY FAR appointments. Over 80 % not interested but only want a free quote.THEY DO NOT SPEND MONEY FOR GOOD MARKETING witch produces good leads.RUN,RUN,RUN.!!!!
