Pros

Young group of energetic people. You'll learn some sales tactics and how to interact with customers.

Cons

Long hours starting as early as 7 a.m. and ending after 6 p.m. No base salary, no gas compensation for travel, 100% commission and it's small. Very difficult to sell enough to make basic ends meet. For most people a 2nd job on weekends might be a necessity which shouldn't be the case when you're working 60 hours a week.

Thanks so much for your feedback. We are glad you were able to learn some new skills during your time with us here at Novar. We have now been able to offer two pay structures: (a) base pay plus performance pay, as well as (b) straight performance pay. All employees are now able to make the choice between the two. The base plus performance structure gives an individual the an opportunity to integrate into the company and build confidence while learning a new skill set.

Pros

I was able to learn a lot of useful and practical skills that allowed me to transition into the work field. Effective communication and time management skills are just a few of the things I was able to really improve on.

Cons

Having a strong work ethic and being able to maintain a consistent attitude is important and a must at this company.

Pros

Team night was a great way to build the team and for employees to get to know each other outside of work. Everyone is assigned to different territories, so you don't see your coworkers throughout the day. There is a long-term potential for growth if you're okay with doing door to door sales for a year, minimum. I hear the pay scale is great once you get promoted to assistant manager, but I never saw anyone get promoted.

Cons

Long hours, very low payment structure, "managers" lack professionalism, most employees there don't stay longer than a month. Unfortunately, the potential for growth is based on a pyramid mentality. The more people under you, the faster you get to the top. However, if people continuously leave, you will never get to the top because you have to keep rebuilding the team. The job description of "management training" is also very vague and does not truly describe the role--B2B sales. Keep in mind that you will not be compensated for gas/mileage. A commission payscale isn't good for everyone.This job is ideal for single, fresh out of college employees with minimal bills.
