Pros

You really do have the opportunity to learn about business and gain professional development, but you have to want it. I witnessed the "merit based advancement" on multiple occasions. The employees that were doing well were advancing quicker than some of the employees that had been there longer.

Cons

This is one of those companies that really do want you to do well but they expect you to go over and beyond to do so. Unfortunately, I didn't take this as serious as I should have. I resigned from the company due to personal matters that took me away from keeping up with the fast pace of the company. If my circumstances were more stable I would reconsider re-applying.

Pros

Cool office building with a Starbucks downstairs.

Cons

Not honest about the job description. Selling Dish TV in big box store is not what was advertised as a marketing manager. Higher ups and the director say they are honest though out the whole process. Well yes, technically they are. In the same way that you can be candid about being a terrible person and not having any remorse for screwing people over. If you want to sell Dish TV in a Sams Club you would probably like the job.

Dear Sir or Madam, Thank you for your review of our company. We are sorry to hear of your poor experience while working with us, but are glad you feel and acknowledge that Acquire’s “higher ups” and directors were consistently honest during your time here. At Acquire we cover a lot of ground when it comes to what we do for our clients. As we mention in the ‘Client’ section of our website as well as during our 3-part interview process, we provide our clients with promotional marketing campaigns, lead generation and new client acquisition. Aside from the services we offer our clients, we also provide leadership development and individualized training for our employees. With all of that said, we hope you can understand why our job listings may vary from time to time due to the wide range of tasks our team performs on a daily basis. We hold our company to the highest standard, as do our clients, therefore, we are not here to “screw people over.” We are here to meet the needs of our clientele while developing our employees into exceedingly capable business leaders. Our sincerest apologies are extended if you feel otherwise and if this is the case then we were highly misrepresented. When it comes to our daily operations, you are correct in saying that we run a legal company. If this were untrue we cannot imagine that some of our Fortune 500 clients would allow our company to represent their brands on a national level. Again, thank you for your feedback and we wish you the very best! Kind Regards, Acquire Human Resources Dept.

Dear Sir or Madam, Thank you for your feedback regarding your time spent working at Acquire. We’re encouraged to hear you were welcomed by friendly coworkers and found our work environment motivating! As stated on our website within the “Clientele” section as well as during our interview process, we promote our clients’ services within “Big Box Retailers” i.e. Sam’s Club and Costco. Although we cannot formally list the names of retailers and clientele on our website or in job listings, we feel we are incredibly transparent about what a position at Acquire entails as well as the growth opportunities provided to our employees. During the final stages of your interview with us you were given a questionnaire that allowed you to give your thoughts on your interview experience.The questionnaire you (and all applicants) filled out begins with, “Why is our form of marketing effective for our clients listed: Sam’s Club and AT&T,” followed by, “Which of our clients listed excite you most: Verizon, Vivint, Samsung, Apple, AT&T, Google.” Additionally, in the questionnaire, you were asked what the top priority is while working in a Sam’s Club or Costco warehouse as well as what you think your biggest strength and challenge would be within the role. Your review has been discussed with the members of our management team who are working fervently to ensure that each employee performing interviews within our company understands the importance of providing clear, concise job details and information throughout every step of the interview process. All insight into our company is taken very seriously and used as an opportunity to improve upon certain aspects of our business. So, again, your feedback is greatly appreciated. Kind Regards, Acquire HR Dept
