Quality Home Products of Texas

What is the best part of working at the company?
The best part of working there was that I was paid decently for what I did and had quite a fair amount of autonomy.  I really liked some of my coworkers and they provided some fun activities to get the sales/marketing team motivated and fed us at these events. Also, the product that we sold (Water Softenting and Purification) was a decent product that helped people live better.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The most stressful part of the job was having to make the weekly and monthly marketing/sales quota.  The only aspects we had any control over were setting appointments, but didn't go out on the sales and couldn't have much control over that.  Plus, we were often dependent on many outside factors, like the weather, the holidays or economy.  When my car broke down, I had to take and Uber to work and meetings and that was very expensive.  The pressure to make the numbers and limited training and support made that difficult. 

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
It's a strange work environment and not very professional, especially in the marketing department.  We would all work independently, in the field, and would regularly have sales/marketing meetings where they would try to motivate you or encourage you, but some of the managers would curse a lot and treat you like a child (making you put your cell phones in a box during meetings and threatening to fire you if you used your cell phone during the meeting).  People did not dress very professionally and most coworkers didn't go to college.  Lots of turnover and not much of a feeling that the company really cared about you. 

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
On a typical day, I would be working in the field, at a Costco or Home Depot and trying to get leads or set appointments.  At the end of the day, I would report the numbers and would not have much contact with team members. It could be a lonely job and they didn't provide a whole lot of support or training.

What is the best part of working at the company?
The product was a great product to sell

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
They didnt tell you what your schedule was until a few hours before your appointments.. i would be told at noon that i had an appointment at 7 pm and it would be an hour away.. no life

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
Political.. the bosses are the judge jury and executioner.. and if dispatch dont like you.. you will be treated like trash.. i was paid commission for my sales but after i left the company they never paid me for my jobs.. i spoke with several other that went through training with me and they said they were never paid for their commissions either.. when i left they owed me $20k and never paid me. When asked they made up reasons that they didnt have to pay me

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
You wake up and sit by your phone and wait to find out what you will do that day.. as soon as you get an appointment you are required to jump and run immediatly

I could go on and on about Quality Home Products of Texas - but truly one of the best companies to work for! The CEO, GM and department managers genuinely care for your growth - both professionally & personally! Quality is an extremely fast-growing company with a lot of changes daily, which can be stressful at times, but everyone will always come together to help each other succeed. I love the flexibility - if you need time off for family or personal reasons, there is NEVER an issue.  Another great thing about Quality is the fun activities that are constantly being done around the office to keep the work atmosphere alive & fresh - they randomly provide lunch, do contest with incentives (trips, cruises, etc), department team building outings, holiday parties, etc. I have been with Quality for over 10 years and truly a great company to be apart of!

Unfortunately if you're not in a management position, then you're pretty much useless...atleast thats the view point from everyone in a management position. If you're a helper on the Generator side or if you pour concrete they will work your butt into the dirt so dont expect to have home/social life. Trying to take a day off pretty much requires and act of congress. If you have children who get sick or have doctors appointments or even if they're in sport etc...dont expect to be able to go unless you're in a management positionand if you finally get that day off, expect some type of retaliation Installers get paid decent, but again no life outside of work. All in all,the management stinks around this place except for the Generator service manager.

they fire anyone who doesn’t meet their standards asap. they play favorites. someone will get fired for being on their phone or taking a phone call, but one of the favorites will do it and they don’t get fired. they make you set 35 appointments a week and write you up if you don’t make it. the managers walk around cussing and saying stupid things all day. it’s a weird annoying environment if you’re used to more professional call center environments. this place feels more like a playground. 

Really good place to work. I messed up and was fired it wasn't anyone's fault but mine but other than that I really loved working here they have really good parties. The management is awesome as long as you're doing what you're supposed to they will definitely take care of you. Really the only problem I ever had was getting enough work because it slows down certain times of the year but there's other work available if that happens. They worked with me for a long time because that issues getting to work on time because of the kids school so they're very understanding about my family life.

What is the best part of working at the company?
Worked independently, able to set goals self projections and goal weekly; as well as interact directly with customers on an on going basis.

What is the most stressful part about working at the company?
The only stress created in my position, is setting self projections and goals.

What is the work environment and culture like at the company?
The setting is very friendly and family oriented.

What is a typical day like for you at the company?
Challenging and very rewarding

You work 6 days a week jus to only have 33-35 hours you don’t make no real money at this job this job is for people with no children and no bills so if you pay rent or anything that’s a priority this is not the job for you! Your calling people for a water test that people don’t even want so jus imagine getting hung up on all day! And the management is real bitter here as well you can’t put in a two weeks notice they will fire you before your two weeks is even up! Great employees I met some real cool people but this job is for kids in high school.

Coworkers are the reason people stay. Everyone is super friendly and always there to help. When business is great, they expect you there to make sure work gets done. Middle management for the most part are pretty reasonable. Sometimes expectations can be high to get the job done so expect long hours. But when business is slow, expect massive layoffs. The only way to keep your job is to pivot to another department. Overall not a bad place to work, but ever since the founder stepped down things haven’t been the same. Just doesn’t feel like a family business anymore

Great place to work if you like outside sales. Great structure to the company, balanced work and family ideals. Typical work day consist of getting prepared to run leads provided to you. Make sure your vehicle is in good running condition, fueled up, and clean. Management is supportive as long as you produce. Workplace culture is competitive. The hardest part of the job is driving around the Houston area (traffic). The most enjoyable part of the job is the freedom to plan your day.
