Pros

-Great pay -Opportunities to travel -I worked with SOME genuinely nice people.

Cons

Before I get into it, I want to let you know that I am a former employee of Empower Network... not just a former affiliate nor someone who bought into their scheme and am unhappy with the results. I legitimately worked for their corporate office and was paid directly by EN. I see many reviews here submitted by people who are merely affiliates and do not truly know what is happening behind the scenes. During my time with EN, I learned that a) it is 100% a pyramid scheme and the owner (Dave Wood) is sitting on the very top, raking in the money from his massive downline that pretty much encompasses anyone who has ever signed up. B) Dave Wood is the most unpredictable and aloof individual I have ever seen (not exactly the type of person I would want owning a company I'm giving thousands upon thousands of dollars to). He would often announce changes or new platforms, trainings, etc. and the corporate office would be completely in the dark about it. If at times it felt like the support agents or department heads had no idea what was going on, it was probably because they truly didn't. C) The environment within the corporate office was friendly on the surface however there were several spineless and two-faced individuals in every department that made things uncomfortable and sometimes even hostile. The management within the corporate office was disorganized, catty, and unprofessional and these were the people representing the company publicly. The lack of experience & professionalism within the corporate walls alone should be enough to make anyone wary of doing business with them. I believe it is worth noting that word has gotten out that Dave Wood admitted that the company is in a bad spot. It's really not a surprise. Plus, rating Jonathan Cronstedt is pointless now because he jumped ship a while ago.

Pros

Good Pay, free dinners and free stuff all the time (no-one was managing all the money that was spent on unnecessary items), had lots of fun on the job (was able to get away with doing hardly any work), traveled a lot

Cons

This place was founded and is run by high school flunkies that have zero business sense. The owners of the company were so aloof; it was clear that they made millions in the course of 2 years without a lot of actual legitimate work, and it went to their heads. They were never in the office and were hardly aware of what was happening at the company. They hire people that are totally unqualified to have decision making positions they hold. The business is based on a pyramid scheme, and this mentality pervades the business decisions and hiring process (lots of dishonest people work there). Most of the lower totem pole employees are fed lies, and they don't really seem to understand how much of a scam the company business model really is. I could tell stories of dishonesty that would appall, but there is not enough space to type. This company won't be around long, it's a sinking ship. Don't work there.
