marketing rep - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso Seneca Promotions

Flexible office environment, understanding management

Open concept office can make it hard to focus

One of the best things about working for Seneca Promotions is that you get paid essentially twice every week. Once based on salary and another check based on mileage. So your base pay of 52,000 a year is easily bumped up to over 60,000 a year with the added mileage check.

This was by far one of the hardest jobs I have ever had to do. The job itself sounds easy enough, you go to four stores a day, set up for two hours each and promote Seneca Tobacco. If someone buys a pack from the store then they can receive a second pack from you for a penny. THIS JOB WAS HELL. First off, they send you to the most unsafe places EVER, either the hood or some really red neck country part of America that you never knew existed. You have to look the part so you're sitting out in front of these stores in BAD areas with full GLAM makeup and hair and you get hit on to the point where it is UNCOMFORTABLE. Let "Management" know and they DO NOT CARE. Raining outside... THEY DO NOT CARE... Snowstorm... THEY DO NOT CARE. Okay... not too too bad right? Secondly you make your own schedule. Sounds beauitful--it's not. You are cold calling stores AFTER you get off work, sometimes for hours (unpaid) and seeing first if they sell the cigarettes then if you've ever been to the store and lastly if you can set up a time to come. You never worked in the city you live in, you have a territory ... set area... you legit drive about 2 hours a day away from your home to some random area, work and drive home another 2 hours... hopefully there is no traffic. So add all of this up and your 40 hour work week has now turned into 80 hours. The driving and scheduling was a full day of work in itself. Management is nonexistent. It's a company full of women-- ENOUGH SAID. CATTY CATTY CHATTY PATTY'S!
