      Pros

      Great company to work for. I get to make my own schedule. I get the best support from technical to client relations. This company truly has an understanding for making the employees and the clients happy. This truly helps me make a very good living.

      Cons

      As a growing company they are always good at finding new innovative technologies to provide our clients but sometimes I wish we had the ability to use some of the technology that has been proven inside the industry.

      Advice to Management

      Invest your time in creating POS partnership.

      I have been working at Mainstream Merchant Services part-time (More than 3 years)

      Pros

      Transparency, informative sales portal, proper training, pleasant corporate staffs and managers, not too much pressure and most importantly - do not periodically raise fees to the merchants and stick with the contract the entire time I have been with the company (3+ Years).

      Cons

      1. Not aggressive enough when it comes to new prospects especially if the business is brand new. Only 25 Estimated Gross Margin is credited to new merchant regardless of industry or size of the business. I have quite many restaurant deals that process over 100K per month and I will get 25 EGM toward my performance. Only because this is a brand new business with no previous sales history to compare with. Other companies will usually based on first 3-month EGM to come up with the correct EGM. Free terminal is almost impossible to get if this is a new business.

      2. Has a lot of terminals to choose from but there are some extra steps are unable to bypass. It could be TSYS processor issue but things like this never got resolved for the longest time and it is not easy when you have other competitors out there that can do better on their terminals.

      Advice to Management

      EGM For new business should be reflected after 3 months of processing with us - not 25 because it doesn't reward sales rep to sell to new businesses (Or existing business starting to accept credit card payment).

      Pros

      You get to make your own schedule, work from home, limited supervision, no territory...sell wherever you want.

      Cons

      Commission only, would be nice if there was some sort of base pay, if you don't have money saved up, it can take a while to collect a statement from the customer and then find time to present the proposal. You can make great money, but make sure you have a buffer before you commit to this company.
