Vantaggi

I cannot think of a single positive thing about this employer.

Svantaggi

This "job" is full of lies from start to finish. It begins with an interview process that claims to be selective, telling you that you were the one candidate selected out of 50 yet on my first day I saw at least 3 other people that I interviewed with. From there its a lot of empty promises of opportunities from growth and advancement, doing a whole lot of jumping through hoops to prove yourself to a bunch of condescending "managers" and one nose-high CEO, and being sent all over the Ohio area 7-days a week for inadequate compensation. For my first assignment I was sent to a Sams's club 1.5 hours away but was told 45 mins before my report time then my mentor and the CEO claimed to be giving me a break by not marking me late. Let's be clear, you will be standing in a Sam's Club, pestering shoppers, rambling off rehearsed lines, trying to trick people into buying standard products. My main regret is that it took me more than a month to realize that the same marketing tricks I was being taught were being used by management to convince me that this place was anything worth my time. Avoid at all costs!!!

Vantaggi

I have been with this team for around 4 months and my time with this firm has been great. The atmosphere and culture that has been cultivated here is second to none. This team really enjoys getting up everyday to accomplish their mission. My favorite thing thus far has been the individualized training that I have received. I came from a career where I was treated as a number and most of my work was menial. Here I truly feel as if what I do is appreciated. I also appreciate that this is a very diverse and open minded culture. Anyone can exceL

Svantaggi

I wish the team meetings where longer!

Vantaggi

- Communication: there is transparency through the entire process. I know what is happening and why it is happening that way. There is always a purpose and it is always communicated thoroughly. - Support Structure: there is always help and there are individuals that give up their time to make sure your growth, knowledge, and skill set are congruent with your goals. You have a personal mentor that has gone through the program that guides you along your growth structure. The training, marketing strategies, and consumer psychology directly relates to real life and has been most beneficial to me not just in my business life but me personal life as well - no one is going to micro manage you but they train to have individuals become self sufficient in the industry. -travel opportunities!! Country wide conferences, different offices, different owners, the Rest & Relaxation, different markets, and the list goes on! - paid driving! I never realized this wasn't a typical thing in the business world but I am grateful to be one of the few that get to enjoy it! - Opportunity for growth: if you show you're motivated, they will provide you with opportunities to help you grow faster and grow from within the company.

Svantaggi

It was a big change for me going from very part time work (18-22 hours a week) to full-time (40 hours a week). I was overwhelmed and exhausted at the end of the first few weeks but I have stuck with it and it has made all the difference! I'm looking forward to how fast I can move up through the company to attain my goals. This opportunity showed me that I didn't want to be ordinary.
