Pros

- If you go for an interview, spend a day in the rain and can read a door-to-door sales pitch, you will 100% get the job as this is a pyramid scheme. - Since they don't want you to leave they will initially seem nice, until you raise any doubts and they will question your parents attitude.

Cons

- They tell you that you can earn £100k in 6-9 months, yet most of the "Team leaders" and "assistant managers" have been there for 1.5 to 3 years. - 70+ hours per week commitment and only Sundays off, you will also be expected to attend team nights regularly. This creates a cult culture and also prevents your family and friends being able to help you get out of the company. - Commission based and no base salary or sick pay, you are forced to sign as an independent sales contractor and have no rights. - Team leaders are poor trainers and are definitely making less than minimum wage working double the hours and with no progression.

Pros

Exercise in a dress suit and smart shoes, if that's your kind of thing.

Cons

Corrupt, deceitful and disingenuous are words you will become well acquainted with working here. The psychological tactics that are in play here are Orwellian to say the least. You will be knocking doors in different areas of London, and sometimes any arbitrary part of Britain for a week ("business trips", where you are forced to share beds with colleagues in pokey B&B's, more on this later). You will be entirely financially responsible for your travel, work wear, ppe, mobile phone data (you'll be soaking it up, trust me). There is no base rate, only commission and even then 40% of your earnings are soaked up by the management - its a pyramid scheme with sugar on top. The managers create a cult culture, wherein underperformers are maliciously looked down upon and belittled and the senior "staff" refer to people who leave, even if they once pretended to care about them, as being "dead" - they actively discourage talking about anyone who leaves as if its a sin to give up this awful work. Tl;dr: You will not take any friends away from this business with you. You will be expected to work 11 hour days+, 5 or even 6 days a week. You will not earn a base rate. You will end up working for nothing a lot of the time. You will be told that it's your attitude that is the problem on days where you don't make sales. You are better off being on UC than working here with these utter parasites.
