Vantaggi

Everyone is very talkative. Some of the co-workers are nice, others seem like they're being forced to talk to you, which they pretty much are.

Svantaggi

This is essentially a pyramid scheme. You are told that you WILL make over $1000 a week, but nobody there does except the management. Then get "promoted" and are told to lie to the new employees so that they will develop an emotional investment with the company and stay longer. The morning meetings are akin to brainwashing; repeating and reaffirming that this company is THE way to a successful career. The job itself is a door to door sales position signing people up for Spark, a green energy company. They try to fool you by saying that they aren't "technically" selling anything. You are then told to lie to the customer and tell them that you are there for a "utility update". The "training" is the other employees sharing stories with you on how to manipulate the customer. Even if you are interested in a career in sales, this is NOT the company for you.

Thank you for taking the time to write this review. We take these issues very seriously and we want to improve the situation to the best of our ability. I apologize for the confusion on compensation. Our assistant managers make $52,000/year plus bonuses, not our entry level employees which is agreed upon and signed for in the new hire paperwork for every person who has filled this position. I think there may have also been confusion on the type of employees our company has. All of our employees are paid through W2/W4. No one is or ever has been sub-contracted or had to invest to work with our company constituting an illegal pyramid. We hold our representatives to the highest standard when representing our clients and have one of the best quality track records in the industry. We want to be able to resolve these issues as soon as possible. These reviews unfortunately are anonymous, but if you would like to talk more, please give us a call so we can further handle these issues.

Vantaggi

I've worked here for over 3 years now and first hand seen how hard work can turn into promotions and rewards. I started as an Account Manager and worked my way to Human Resource Director. Throughout my 3 years I have been able to expand my experience through many different duties. The company culture is a real team-work, performance based. The harder you work, the more advancement you may receive.

Svantaggi

Nothing is given to you. If you don't work hard than you can't expect promotions or advancement. This is truly a performance based company, so if you have a competitive mindset and want to win, you would fit in great. If you expect everything to be easy and not have to work than this might not be for you.

Vantaggi

I've been at Infinite for about a year now, and I have a few points to talk about. 1. The corporate culture. At Infinite there is an extremely positive atmosphere that is fostered, and protected, by management and the people working here. The Management Training Program is designed to be tough because the clientele are all Fortune 500 companies and need the very best reps and managers to run offices for them. The culture at Infinite positively supports all people and provides a venue for them to succeed. 2. The standards. At Infinite, there are very high standards for both reps and managers. While performance is important, Infinite focus more on the character of our people, most specifically on the Integrity of both reps and managers. We do this because we represent Fortune 100 and 500 clients. Our clients ask that reps and mangers pass both background and drug screening. Both our clients and Infinite look for quality people. 3. The opportunity. At Infinite, the Management Training Program is designed to be hard on purpose. All of our managers start from entry level and work their way up. I've personally met our 9 extremely talented managers and each and every one started from the bottom. I'm here for the same opportunity to be successful that they have worked so hard for.

Svantaggi

I live in Barrington so it's a longer drive. But worth it.
