Pros

Great if you want your entire life to revolve around work. People are occasionally nice but don't expect to make genuine friendships at work.

Cons

Incredibly long days. They say that you're only *actually* working 6 hours a day. That is a LIE. Expect an average work day to start anywhere from 9-10 am and not end until 8-9pm. Expect to put over two thousand miles on your car in the span of a month. This would have been fine if we were properly compensated. You can work hard all day but not even a single sale is guaranteed. You make more working a 12 hour minimum wage shift than you would make working a 12 hour shift at NLC making a standard sale. They have weekly team nights that they say are optional but you are reprimanded for if you don't go.

Pros

They play loud music at the beginning of the day and practice reps which is great but everything else was horrible, they pay you dirt, they are impatient, and they are sleezebags. I learned some invaluable skills but wouldn’t come back whatsoever.

Cons

Tons of gas, tons of time (14+ hour days) with $0 of sales some days. They lied and promised $700-$1200 weeks and need to be sued. I spent 180 hours for $400 worth of sales. They do shady practices, the ones that succeed at this job. I showed up 2 hours early every day and they finessed everyone. They have great ideas but they don’t pay their employees anything and they do not pay hourly at all, whatsoever! Arrogant pompous leads like Decker. Everyone else was cool but horrible company, they do not take care of their employees. They also discriminate and don’t honor their words, and they don’t mean what they say! They lie profusely! STAY AWAY AND SAVE YOUR TIME!
