Pros

Paid training is the only Pro

Cons

This is one of the most low-key abusive environments I've ever been in. The training course can be incredibly abusive to people who don't meet the "popularity" standard. I worked incredibly hard. I even continued working incredibly hard when I heard managers speaking negatively of me within earshot and in front of others. I met the standard quota to be hired but the manager decided to disqualify one of my sales because he simply didn't like me. I think I didn't make the hotness standard for a single mom. During the training process I witnessed people so stressed out that they almost didn't make it and some of them turned to anti-anxiety medications to alleviate the stress. This place comes off like your best friend but quickly turns, again if you don't meet some sort of social acceptance standard. It really isn't about your skills or how hard you work. I think their product is an excellent product, but a lot of their managers don't have any respect for contractors. One of my trainers actually told me that he thought contractors were stupid and that I needed to treat them like they're stupid in order to sell to them. They need to cater more to the contractors who really are their customers, than they need to cater to the people who are the customers of contractors. I was really pushed to sell sell sell at any cost to the customer.

Pros

It’s work from home. Two 15 minute breaks and an hour lunch.

Cons

They are a very dishonest company. The hype up the job but in reality what you’ll be doing is spending all day calling random numbers in which about 95% of those people either won’t answer the phone or if they do, you will be hung up on within like two seconds. Not to mention the Angie reputation is so bad. It’s actually notoriously bad that even if you are able to get someone on the phone for more than a couple of minutes they’ll still end up hanging up just because of how bad Angie is. In my opinion Angie is a dishonest company selling a dishonest service because most of the leads they sell are fake and most of the leads they give their employees to call are also fake and if you don’t make these outrageous sales numbers you’re fired it’s a reason why the employee benefits don’t kick in until three months in because they know 95% of the people they hire won’t still be working there in three months because they will not hit the sales quotas. The only good thing about this job is its work from home really. And the hot leads they say they have 95% are fake or just someone who looked at a spam email. It’s actually comical how deceptive this company is.
