Pros

I guess you could say they are good about training their employees?

Cons

This company is a joke. Everyone starts at $10/hr and they claim that within 9 months you're a director. They think way to highly of themselves. You work mon-fri 10am-6pm and saturdays 10-3. I don't think $10/hr is worth a 6 day work week. They also lie. I was told DURING MY INTERVIEW that the director of ATL office made $100 Million this year. They make stuff up as they go and it's not worth your time. No benefits until you're assistant director. They claim that within one year you can be a director of your own branch and make "whatever salary you want". SCAM!

Dear Marketing Associate, Thanks for the quick review! We're sorry to hear that our growth structure didn't make sense to you, but it is actually possible for us to train someone into a management role within a few months. This is actually fairly common in other companies as well, similar to Hertz or Enterprise, that have similar growth opportunities. Our last promotion only took a few months and they're now heading our expansion project in Austin, TX! We're not 100% who told you about the director's salary, I'm sure that they meant that the company itself made that much in revenue, which sounds much more feasible. Again, we're sorry for any confusion, but if you'd like to clear this up, please reach out to us at hr@newacquisitionsinc.com. We wish you the best of luck on the rest of your search.

Pros

You might meet some cool co-workers while working here. I personally did. Also, the office park this place is headquartered at is pretty nice.

Cons

You have to wake up real early, dress in business professional every morning, and be at this uptown office park by 7 AM. You will be expected to arrive early, even if you don't get paid (I was SPECIFICALLY told to arrive more than 15 minutes earlier than I was scheduled for or else I would be considered "late"). Once you arrive, you will do very little and talk about stuff that could have just been an email for about an hour in a half. You will be expected to write everything down in a notebook to prove you are "paying attention". Then you will leave, go stand in the frozen foods aisle of a Costco for 8 hours whilst approaching and annoying passing grocery shoppers with the same tagline over and over until you can finally convince someone to subscribe to a lowly-rated water delivery service or whatever product they are having you promote at the time, which you will get $50 for. If you don't do these enough times by the end of the week, well, then congratulations you just wasted your time.

Thank you for your feedback. We want to clarify that our team members are only scheduled and compensated for their agreed-upon hours, and we do not require unpaid work. Punctuality and professionalism are expectations in any client-facing role, but they are never tied to unpaid time. Our morning meetings are structured training sessions focused on skill development, communication, and performance coaching - which are essential in a sales and marketing environment. Field marketing in retail settings is also clearly communicated during the hiring process, as it is a core part of the position. We strive to be transparent about responsibilities, compensation structure, and growth opportunities from the start, and we encourage candidates to ask questions to ensure the role aligns with their goals. We appreciate all feedback and continuously work to improve the experience for our team.
