Pros

None, it's a pyramid scheme

Cons

It's a pyramid scheme where they call their marketing services "direct marketing" which really means you go into stores like Costco and Sam's Club and sell phones. Very vague in the beginning about what you'll actually be doing. And everyone who works there talks like a shady car salesman. After you expose them for being a scam they'll gaslight you! Trust when you see the bad reviews. Don't waste your time.

Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We value all feedback and aim to address any concerns our employees may have. However, we must clarify a few points raised in your review. Firstly, we can understand your frustration if our initial communication seemed vague about the nature of the role. We apologize if there was any misunderstanding. It is our priority to ensure that all applicants are fully informed about the responsibilities and expectations associated with the job. We continuously strive to enhance our hiring process to provide a comprehensive understanding of the position right from the beginning. Regarding your comment about our marketing services being referred to as "direct marketing," I want to assure you that our intention is not to mislead anyone. The term "direct marketing" is commonly used in the industry to describe various promotional methods, including selling products in retail environments like Costco and Sam's Club. While this approach lies within the paradigm of direct marketing, we understand that it may not align with everyone's expectations or preferences. Furthermore, we take allegations of operating a pyramid scheme very seriously, as it undermines our commitment to ethical business practices. As a legitimate company, we comply with all legal regulations and do not engage in any fraudulent activities. Should you have specific concerns or evidence related to this matter, I encourage you to bring them to our attention so we can address them accordingly. Regarding your comment about our employees' communication style, we value professionalism and integrity as cornerstones of our company culture. We encourage open and respectful dialogue between all team members. If you believe there are instances where our employees have acted inappropriately, please provide more details so we can investigate the matter properly. I understand you may have had a negative experience, and it is regrettable that you feel the need to label us a scam. However, we want to emphasize that the vast majority of our employees find value in their roles and are satisfied with their experiences. We continuously work to create an inclusive, positive, and growth-oriented environment for our team members.

Pros

The team outings are fun, but that is literally the only pro.

Cons

They lie about what you're doing (selling phones in a Costco or Sam's), berate you, and lie about the hours.
