Thank you for all you do in the call center! It’s true that during peak seasons, when families across the country need heating, cooling, or plumbing support, the pace can intensify. That demand is a reflection of the trust customers place in us, and our call center teams rise to the occasion every single time. You truly are the front line of what we do!

Pros

Earning potential is real. Quick installation availability. Leads provided and scheduled for you. Company vehicle & fuel card provided.

Cons

Long hours. Unpredictable schedule daily, “on call” position, appts added same day with no notice & no control over rescheduling, very often calls are added & expected to be run as late as 7-8pm and don’t get home till 9-10pm. Income / commissions can be very seasonal based on demand. Very high pressure sales tactics, opportunity to follow-up is pretty much ruined before you leave any appt

Pros

You can take work truck home.

Cons

Management has created a challenging work environment where technician support and fair compensation do not appear to be priorities. There are no performance-based bonuses or consistent annual raises, despite strong expectations around sales. Call distribution lacks transparency, with higher-quality leads often going to a small, select group, making it difficult for others to perform at their full potential. Technicians are also expected to take calls after scheduled hours (8 AM – 4 PM), which impacts work-life balance. Additionally, time and travel policies raise concerns. Technicians clock in upon arrival at the customer’s location rather than when travel begins, even when jobs are over an hour away. This results in significant unpaid driving time, often exceeding two hours per day. In some cases, technicians are required to travel to appointments even when customers are unresponsive, leading to cancellations or reschedules without compensation for the time lost. Overall, the expectations placed on technicians are high, but the structure and support systems in place do not consistently reflect or reward that effort.

Thank you for sharing this detailed feedback, and we recognize how concerning these experiences can be. We take issues around transparency, fair compensation, scheduling expectations, and travel time very seriously, and your comments highlight areas that require continued focus and accountability. Our goal is to create an environment where all technicians have equitable opportunities, clear support, and recognition that reflects their effort and performance.

Not for everyone

Pros

Uncapped commission, company vehicle and gas provided, people you work with at the branch level are great

Cons

Extreme micromanagement, constant price increases, 12-14 hour days are the norm even when not busy, always on call, management can’t do anything to help or make decisions because they are all made at the corporate level, everything you do is recorded

Pros

Going broke and being told that the food pantry can help by HR. Still having to drive to unqualified leads. Being told that management doesn't play favoritism as all of the sales team watches the favoritism happen. Finding out the Spyware installed on the devices records private conversations after work hours. Watching management hire more sales during a low lead environment so every sales person gets to make less while they secure their bonus.

Cons

Inconsistent pay Spied on through REQUIRED technology A culture where everyone looks out for themselves No team work Untrustworthy environment Greed driven Profit first, customer 2nd, employee last.

We’re genuinely sorry to hear that this was your experience. We understand that income stability, lead flow, and team dynamics are critically important in a commission-based sales environment. We recognize that market fluctuations can impact lead volume, and we continuously evaluate staffing, forecasting, and operational decisions to balance opportunity across the team. We also want to clarify, ARS does not use “spyware” to monitor private conversations. Company-issued devices may have standard security and compliance tools in place to protect customer information and company data.
