Pros

There are no pros in this company.

Cons

This is a door to door job. Walking from store owner to store onwer trying to convice them to switch the phone line even if it doesnt benifit the store owner. You must always be out there in rain,snow,cold weather. Please heed my warning and dont waste your time applying to this job.

Dear Reviewer, First, we'd like to thank you for the time you took to interview with our company and write this review!! Though it states that you were employed full time, we know this not to be true due to one simple reason. In our second interview, which is almost always a full day observation of the job position, you would have seen first hand that we work one on one and face to face with small-medium sized business owners in the New York and Connecticut area (depending on which office location you were in). There would be no confusion in the job description and you wouldn't have accepted the position (we hope), if you felt in your second interview it wasn't a good fit professionally. We also know you didn't work for our organization because you listed there wasn't a single pro and we can assure you, anyone who's spent time with you team could find at least one thing to compliment them on. While we encourage feedback, we think not listing a single pro is unbalanced and wish you had felt comfortable sharing your experience with us doing your 2nd or 3rd interview so we could have answered any lingering questions for you. We have no doubt that since February you've found a company and a position that is a much better fit for you. All of our luck! Sincerely, CEO/Benjamin Buchsbaum
