Pros

There is a lot to learn and you can focus on many different kinds of jobs (office, industrial, professional etc). You meet some great people and make good connections along the way. The Franchise System Support center was AMAZING with answering questions and providing assistance.

Cons

Base pay and commissions are low. No health benefits offered, no 401K matching. PTO was was average. No real "perks" offered. Many associates were demanding and ungrateful. The owner was often not present and inconsistent in many areas causing low morale amongst staff.

Business Outlook

Pros

Each franchise is different, but I found people who care thoroughly about me and the welfare of the people we put to work. I'm surrounded by driven and ambitious people, and we consider ourselves a family.

Cons

Clients are often unreasonable and make unrealistic demands. Associates are entitled and disrespectful fairly often. There will be a lot more negatives than positives, but if you can dwell on the positives, you should be alright. It's a stressful industry to be in, and you really have to devote a lot of your life to career.
