Svantaggi
Was told I wouldn't have to cold call, just present. Once I was hired I was told to make 50 cold calls a day, then 100, then 200... Manager told me he wanted to help me set accounts up, but only ever showed me himself signing up clients at already existing accounts. After about 1000 cold calls I finally got somebody to agree to meet with me, only both managers had already given up on me at that point. They wouldn't adjust their schedules and so my meeting went nowhere. Expected me to be first to show up and last to leave although I told them in my interview that sharing a car with my wife I would have to show up after I dropped her off and leave to pick her up, which they didn't mind when interviewing me. They made sure to enforce that I wasn't getting anywhere because I wasn't working hard enough, never taking any responsibility. That part was really frustrating for me. I had no money after my first month and that didn't bother them. Bothered me because I had bills and everything they told me in the interview ended up being a lie.
