Demonstrator position is a great part-time job.

Demonstrator (Current Employee)
Des Moines, IA

I have been working at Aidells part-time for less than a year

ProsThe entire kit and uniform are provided free of charge. The pay is much more than offered in retail or mystery shopping. The customers are fun and thank me for helping them. I get to meet a wide variety of people. If you enjoy people, this is the perfect job for you.

ConsI am good at my job and dependable so I work almost every weekend. The kit has a lot of items and is cumbersome to haul around. Some of the meat departments are gross. I have to clean my supplies at and it is a pain to haul everything in the house and then back out to the car.

Yes, I would recommend this company to a friend

A good pt job for a self directed type of person.

Demonstator (Current Employee)

I have been working at Aidells

ProsDemonstrating for the company is much better than going though a contractor. The company provides you with all the supplies. You are very independent and treated respectfully by the company.

ConsIf you need a lot of direction, you won't get it. You are left to do the job on your own.

Advice to Senior ManagementYou will keep part timers longer if you look for a way to offer health benefits, even if there is a cut in pay or the employee has to pay most of the cost.
