Pros

One could network here, I believe anyone can take experience out of a bad situation

Cons

SCAM! This is sales, non-salary, benefits, sale. If that's for you, that's great, but this company doesn't sell it that way. Pyramid scheme.

Hello! I think you may have either written a review of the wrong company or never actually completed the interview process. Let me explain why... 1) We absolutely do sales. We use that language​ ​in all of our job postings, our recruiters use that language when reaching out to potential candidates, our managers who conduct first round interviews mention sales and ask candidates why they would be a good fit for sales, and in the 2nd round interview we even take a candidate to the field to show them the sales process. If that is not enough communication before someone accepts a position, the candidate must not be paying much attention. Also, we do offer a base. If you worked here, you would know that. 2) You mentioned "pyramid scheme". We are a company. We have been since 2011. We are growing and expanding. We represent AT&T and DirecTV here in Nashville and partner with some of the largest retailers in the world. Before you throw titles around like that, I would suggest knowing what a pyramid scheme is. "A pyramid scheme is an illegal investment scam based on a hierarchical setup. New recruits make up the base of the pyramid and provide the funding, or so-called returns, the earlier investors/recruits above them receive. A pyramid scheme does not involve the selling of products. Rather, it relies on the constant inflow of money from additional investors that works its way to the top of the pyramid." If you are certain you reviewed the correct company and can provide any other feedback, feel free to reach out to me via email and we can continue the conversation so I can make sure we do a better job! Thank you.
