Pros

Most of the people you work with are nice

Cons

-The training they offer is minimal, my first day of training was with someone that was extremely hungover they didnt teach me anything. The second day was with my team leader who didnt give me any real instructions aside from talking about how great the company is. - If you ask for more training after the first 2 days you're told "Maybe the problem is with you, maybe you're not trying hard enough." - new employees are expected to go to "Team nights" every Thursday where the boss basically just talks about how good he is at everything. - every Friday you are expected to go in an hour ealry for "Opportunity meeting" where the boss tells you how much money he makes to try and motivate you into doing a better job. - if you dont meet the sales quota in your first week the boss will pull you into his office and tell you that if you dont make *X* amount of sales in the next few days then "you arent a good fit" -This job is exclusively standing in Walmart's bothering people all day.

Hi former trainee! Thank you for taking the time to give us feedback. We’re sorry you had a bad experience in the training process. Please give us a call, we’d like to know which of our employees you felt gave you inadequate day 1 training 513-272-0038. We are also a little confused, as our training process is ongoing throughout the first month, not 2 days. Our management team does hold our team to high standards, that’s how we’ve been able to surpass a lot of our competition and gain national recognition the last 2 years. If someone isn’t following through on their commitments to the position (coming in late/unprepared) they will have conversations and hold that individual accountable. We wish you the best in your future endeavors!

Pros

Kinetics Midwest has a lot of growth opportunities as a company and never limits your chances to succeed. I have been able to move up in the organization due to my work and have continually been growing. Their culture/environment is strong and positive. Coworkers are always there to help you develop your skills and improve through day to day endeavors. I have worked here for almost half a year and have loved the opportunities that have been given to me to expand my knowledge, network, and personal goals. I would highly recommend working here to anyone.

Cons

Currently expanding, so the office is a bit smaller.

Pros

Kinetics provides a great opportunity for anyone that is not interested in sitting at a desk all day every day. If you're serious about your goals, you can get there with the program and a little elbow grease. Our team is like a family and you are included from day one. A mentor is assigned during the second interview and takes you under their wing with so much love to guide you to your goals. The company structure has no seniority and just doing your job helps your coworkers do theirs as well. This may be considered sales, but it's not a competition. Everyone is rooting for everyone. Everyone is willing to help everyone. Everyone is here to reach their goals in life and I believe they will! I read the reviews on GlassDoor before my first interview and I am so glad that I ignored them. Individuals will always find something to be unhappy with and this job isn't easy peasy lemon squeezy. There are multiple different shift options available, so it's literally for anyone. The bonuses are amazing as well :)

Cons

There is a base salary for the sales positions, but you have to make it known that you don't want to receive commission ( which you can make WAY more than base with).
