East Marketing Reviews

Pros

Very misleading but typical marketing job. Very positive and possible but not for everyone

Cons

On your feet all day. Don’t know beforehand you are in Walmart all day every day

Pros

NONE, everything they feed you is to manipulate you. They want you to be stuck there so that they can make money off of you

Cons

60+ hours a week, using your own car and they don't tell you, don't give you gas money, dont have a social life outside of work and being with your co workers, you don't make the money they promise you you would, SEXUAL HARRASMENT, NO HR DEPARTMENT, NO HEALTH INSURANCE

Pros

Other employees were smart, talented, and funny. I dearly hope that they all managed to escape this scam.

Cons

This company is the new version of a pyramid scheme. It's a multi-level marketing operation that promises you rapid promotion and fast money. The "entry-level" for this position is selling products like telecom services in the back of Walmart. But they won't tell you that. They market their jobs as though they are legitimate marketing and sales opportunities. Employees work 60-80 hours per week for commission-only pay. They will tell you in your interview that Team Leaders make $600-$1500 per week. This is a lie. You will be lucky to make more than $500 per week. The top sales rep in the country made $900, nowhere near the amount they advertise. This business is run like a cult. They will indoctrinate, brainwash, and screw you over without hesitation. I can't break down all the ways that this company is unethical and exploitative in just one review. So if you are a prospective, current, or former employee, I highly recommend watching the documentary "The Slave Circle" on YouTube. Whatever you do, don't work for East Marketing.

Pros

Great people who work there... very helpful and want you to learn. Unfortunately they were sucked in this scam and it consumed their mindset.

Cons

Basically a pyramid scheme that is well known. BEWARE OF ENTRY LEVEL MARKETING JOBS LIKE THESE, THIS IS NOT THE ONLY ONE. But if you don’t know about the pyramid scheme then it seems like such a great opportunity. They use big words, lengthy responses and degrade your intelligence to basically avoid telling you exactly what you will be doing...which is... SELLING WIFI IN WALMART. You will be standing there for 7-8 hours asking people to switch to a certain WiFi company like (AT&T, Xfinity, etc). They will not tell you that until your first day when your on the way to the store. Then guilt trip you in every meeting about seeing the positive and how you can grow if you “believe in yourself” but honestly it will take at least a year or close to it until you are not pitching in Walmart anymore. They lie about how much you will make so you will be dreamy eyes about the numbers but those are if you sell a lot because it’s mostly commission. And selling isn’t easy because most people are telling you to go away, Overall, just don’t waste your time unless you want to sell WiFi in Walmart is my advice.

Pros

Pros are definitely the people and the learning. A ton of training is provided.
