Pros

Great experience with sales and promotion set up.

Cons

Schedule is always all over the place. Parker loves talking about his employs behind their backs in a negative light. Promises you a salary of 500-700/week. But really your lucky to see an average of 200-300/week. Before working for this company I strongly advise you look up smart circle. I worked for the company for 2 months before I resigned. I put over 4500 miles on my car just working for them. I was filling up my tank at least twice a week. They were supposed to reimburse for gas and miles but only give you $11 a day and only if you leave from the office first.

Pros

They have a management training program that overloads people with real-world experience. It's probably the best thing for my resume...ever. Management, sales, marketing, event-planning, forecasting, scheduling, recruitment- all in a very fast paced environment. If you're fresh out of school and only have internships on your resume this would literally be the best thing you can do.

Cons

They make it look really easy...but it's A LOT of hard work.

Pros

The training is great! They go over "Harvard Business" proven methods and statistics.

Cons

The commission pay is terrible. It is 18% of your total sales AFTER 20% has been deducted to go to Sam's Club or Costco. The hours are not static but fluctuate a lot. They can be anywhere from 20-55 hours per week. The CEO stated that if you do not make minimum wage through commission, you'd be paid around minimum wage regardless. However, on the paycheck, it is hard to see whether this was done or not because you are paid as follows: -Hourly Pay (0) -Commision % Week 1 (18% of total sales) -Commission % Week 2 (18% of total sales) The items you would sell (or they would call it marketing) are mainly unnecessary, luxurious items. Heat Therapy Packs, Car Wax, Hair Straighteners, Weight Loss Tea, etc.
