HomeShield Pest Control (CA) Reviews

Micro manage, focus on wrong things constantly, reactive not proactive, too many chiefs, promise growth but only if you are able to make it through their convoluted crappy training which they stand by, the owner is an idiot who invests most of his money in grant Cardon training because he doesn’t have a clue what good sales techniques are and probably couldn’t teach them, the managers are glorified babysitters who don’t actually do their jobs, they don’t offer construction services or have a contractor, have the worst insulation contractor in TruHeat, they only pay you half of any sale that is contracted. Just overall a awful show of a business that is one accident away from going under.

The investment in the training was unfortunately Grant Cardone University. While any training is always great, the content isn’t tailored for pest control sales (which is its own beast). The actual “gems” provided in the training are very simple and the excessive time required for watching videos is a distraction from actual sales work. Hopefully they don’t have to waste more time/money to realize they’ve become prey to a predatory scam. Inbound leads are booked 2 weeks out. Meaning those inbound leads are aged 2 weeks. Those hot leads “I have rats in my attic, termites in my kitchen please send someone as soon as possible!!” are put on ice. To add more nonsense. Salespeople are not allowed to prioritize inspections or manage their own calendars. The calendar is always changing. The vehicle have a camera on me 24/7 and now I have an exhibitionist kink. I had a lot of freedom to focus on my sales because I didn’t participate in the mandatory daily camera-on zoom meetings, That were demoralizing at worst and unmotivating at best.
