Total scam
Unfair fees
No work after pay per week guarantee period
Lies lies lies. So many lies before you buy it
They hide lots of information before you buy
No help when you want to sell
It is very hard to claim pay per week guarantee
Too many conditions
Don't buy

Nothing is hidden, everything is available on our YouTube channel with more than 1500 videos. We have 5,350 franchisees and don't know why Glassdoor allows ex-franchisee reviews on our company profiles.
Our first-year failure rate is around 9-10% and we recommend that all franchisee prospects call current and former franchisees in the region they are looking at buying. PFWG is not free money, you have to do free services in your area to build up your reputation and we will pay you for these activities. Our franchisee selection process let us down in this instance.
There was no help with your job from the start, no guidance whats so ever. Other co-workers would try to help but they were swamped as well.
Management was useless. The COO has the emotional intelligence of a sock. Way in over his head. You could never get him when you needed him.
The Sales process was lengthy, with no guidance made it incredibly hard. I had a 5 hour dispute over email to get commission i was owed because accounts didnt know sales was supposed to get commission until they heard it from COO. No one seems to know what they are doing.
Every one was talking behind each other's back and the turn over of employees was mental. In my first 8 weeks 3 were walked out and 3 others quit from what I expect was burnout.
Flexible work hours, work independently, and get to manage your own schedule.
Cons
No actual support from the head office. High fees, no training, no technical help. They always blame franchisees and never listen. Even unfair customer complaints are pushed to you, and they never help you get paid.
