Pros

I have almost nothing positive to say. Unless you are an amazing salesperson, they will take advantage of you.

Cons

Take this as a warning to never trust sales, marketing, or consulting firms that don't have an established reputation. I was told I'd receive base pay plus commissions, but what they don't tell you is that you will only receive base pay if you make 6 sales in a week. Thus, you are working for free until you start making them money.

Oh boy, oh boy... How do we address such a terrible review? Well I suppose it should start with the question - how did you know that you'd receive a base pay draw if we didn't tell you? We are legally required to tell you. This is what we have agreed upon with our client. This is not something new and we do not want anyone to be working for free... As far as what the job REALLY is? It's sales. It's hard. It requires a certain stamina. If you lack work ethic, you will NOT be successful here. We do not want to waste our resources on people who will be worried about doing hard work. But i can tell you the grinders, the go-getters, the positive attitude people do extremely well here and this is why we have a vigorous interview process to find the right match. Do some people fool us and lie to US that they are willing to put the work in? Sure as heck they do! Some people just want to be hired to say that they were hired and then don't even realize what they got themselves into and in all honesty reviews like these happen only if they are that type of person — this says to me you did not listen during your job interview. This tells me you did not listen during your training. We have a training packet. There is no way that our pay structure was not explained to you. I really do hope you find a good match and I'm sorry we did not work out for you, but the good news is we can all learn form our failures. We wish you the best of luck the in future Anonymous!

Pros

Pros about Benevolus are that it is an extremely fun place to work. Everyone is motivated and eager to learn new things and develop skills to further their careers. There is also a lot of room for growth and progression in the company.

Cons

I wouldn’t classify them as cons but as in any position being successful here does require hard work, dedication, and a great attitude everyday. It can be challenging at times.

Pros

You learn how to sell, but do it in a corny, overbearing, time-wasting way.

Cons

Inequitable revenue split, door to door sales, when you sell a two year package, the sales person should get more than 1/24 of the commission
