Pros

You can unknowingly set up dozens to hundred of accounts for Dave Royce free of payment.

Cons

This company will promise you the world and deliver about 1/3 of what you might expect. They have the tendency to use deceptive statistics to sign reps. Their database reflects different numbers than that of reality. Their metrics are only based off of the 7-8 hundred of people that "finish" the summer dates but account for the entirety of the sales force 2000+ sales representatives. They make you sign a non-compete for 36 months so if you have any plans to sell ANYTHING for the subsequent 3 years after Aptive they will sue you. If you are a manager and decide that Aptive is the wrong fit for you they will keep all of your reps and be continually recruiting out from underneath you. They go behind anyone's back who even hints at the idea of not continuing to sell for them to make things as difficult as possible. They have a bucket system that if you fall beneath you will not collect any commission from (20%+) of all your accounts. Those that do not resign for the following summer will have extremely coincidental metrics move i.e. Easy Pay %age will fall below the 75%+ requirement and they will be subject to pay $20.00 per account for all accounts sold in other words it will be a $2000.00 deduction for every 100 accounts sold. The owner seems to only act in behalf of his own self interest. You will not be paid as they advertise, their per rep averages are lies base off of the total number of accounts sold distributed among those that finish the summer instead of the actual number of reps working and selling those accounts.

Pros

CO workers and managers are generally awesome

Cons

Corporate are evil useless awful people who mandate ridiculous quotas, the sales teams over promises the aptive pro service whatever is garbage, the customers are furious because they were scammed into a contract that's trash for what they pay monthly. The initial service charge discount trap is awful. The expectations for techs are set so high by the wide coverage everyone gets but the service time is typically too short for effective pest control. The company requires photos of every account serviced and almost certainly sells the data to third party data brokers. I was hired for 20.50 an hour in NYS with 7 years pest control exp and license and my own business. After proving my knowledge and ability they refused to give me an offer I couldnt refuse. They want to exploit young techs with low wages and high quotas via intimidating micro management and metrics tracking asking us to service 14-18 houses a day. As an experienced pest control tech with several job experiences this was absurd. I was not incentivized enough to become a major team player with my exp
