abit unorganized at times and one manager I had was mean

Pros

The co-intrens teach you everything from scratch

Cons

No one on one interaction with the staff

Pros

They're always hiring because of the insane turnover rate. There's not any real pros to this place because honestly they aren't even a real company

Cons

I worked here for a solid two weeks. The emailed me saying they found my résumé on indeed, which I could strange because the fact that I've done construction my whole life. But I figured I'd check it out and see. The whole interview process is 3 separate interviews. The first one you meet with the assistant manager and he just talks about how awesome the company is and asks vague questions. If you get called back for a second interview (everyone does) then you get taken on a lunch interview to chipotle. During my interview I saw 3 other "leaders" interviewing people around the restaurant. During this interview is when you find out what the job really is. It's not account management. It's door to door sales. But they'll never out right say that. You have to know the terms, which I didn't until now. Anyways, I was hired and then was told it was 100% commission on my first day in "the field". You work from 11-8 every day but they expect you at the office by 8 every day. Then you drive out to anywhere in the metro area on your own gas, to push AT&T u-verse in neighborhoods where people have already tried to sell it multiple times. Most of these people barely make enough to get by because no one wants to sign up for u-verse. They promised you 100,000$+ a year within a year but that's bs. The owner barely makes 40,000 a year. When you leave the "job" they belittle you telling you to go back to McDonald's. Lucky for me since I left there I got a job doing HVAC work on military bases across Oklahoma and Arkansas. I now make 42$ an hour too. Way more then I ever could have at Elle

Pros

Exciting, learn a bunch, most people are great, CEO makes sure you get what you earned. Lots of walking.

Cons

Wasnt the tight fit for me... Did not realise it was a door to door sales type thing, and often feels way to pushy for me, I watched people get angry when they were told no and then they almost forcibly asked why, also had one guy yell "language barrier" as we left to imply that we didnt get the sale because the women was unable to speak english well... everyone else understood her completely. It wasnt proffessonal in that aspect.

Pros

I really like the fun work environment and the people I work with. Everyone is really helpful and I like that the president of the company is always readily available and has an "open door policy". They do lots of fun office events and charity events, which I think is cool. The training is really good as well. I came straight out of college so I haven't had any sales/marketing experience but I think I have learned more in the short time I've been here than at any other position in any other company. So far I'm really enjoying what I do here and I can see a long term career opportunity.

Cons

The interview process is pretty extensive. They do three rounds of interviews and I have some friends that also applied that didn't get invited back for the second interview.

Pros

They spend half the day with you in management training which teaches you a lot.

Cons

They have a 3 interview process during my second interview I asked them if this was door to door sales and they told me no. I was then hired and started the following week. When I got there they went over the main things I needed to know. After lunch though they had us change into shorts and polos. We were then taken to a neighborhood and began our field training. They lied to me during the interview because what I was doing during training was door to door sales. I was told I would be making 300-500$ a week when I got my first check it was only 70$ for the week. The company had taken most of my check.

Pros

Business trips, youthful environment. Culture seems cool, once you get trained, even though really don't get trained ...

Cons

-commission-based -poor training -not up front in hiring process

Pros

learn something new every single day hang out with motivated people, rather than people at my last job that seemed to hate everything got to go on a couple of business trips that were paid for out of okc excited to go work get to actually coach people that want to get better able to voice my opinions getting a little better at talking in front of a large group

Cons

can't work from home cafe in the office building is being remodeled, so has been closed for over a month
