Pros

It's in a nice area

Cons

The owner is an idiot he just goes on about how rich he is. It's cold calling which is fine, but you have to lie to the customers, the service doesn't work and is a complete waste of time. As an employer they have a work culture full of bullying and belittling people. Making people feel really bad, the money is absolutely rubbish they will try to take your commission. Its so wrong, please don't waste your time here. The fake reviews are embarrassing.

Pros

It was a relatively short commute. Parking available. Shops for lunch nearby.

Cons

The job is selling a product that doesn't do what you tell customers. Basically we charge other small businesses a fee to advertise in google maps. But as you know, you cannot affect the results here by simply 'buying a space'. It's based on locality. And there is nothing you can do to make your business appear if the customer is searching from further away. THATS WHAT THEY SELL! And because these small businesses are not covered by the Consumer Rights Act, they have little to no recourse after being misled into buying a subscription. When they try to cancel, we just keep charging them anyway. The environment is hugely toxic, and I'm not normally one to describe work environments this way as you can never get on with everyone you meet, but this place is something else. I've seen things in that office that I can't write here without the review getting removed.
