Pros

Teaches you how to survive despite lack of support and training. If you can he successful here you can be successful anywhere.

Cons

They lie to you constantly, fake sales numbers to make things look better than they are, and shove the stock down your throat. You are 100% commission and they haven’t raised or changed the commission structure in 25+ years.

If there are any scenarios where we haven't upheld our principles and values, we would want to know and address immediately. Tom James is dedicated to providing training, coaching, technology platforms, 1-1 meetings, lucrative monthly bonuses and a positive culture in order to empower our Sales Professionals to be successful. Our number one goal is building people. We have recently implemented a new pay plan structure, in part in response to concerns like yours. Tom James provides fully comprehensive medical coverage, a robust benefits program, and our employees are W2'd employees. We offer a traditional 401(k) matching program, employee ownership, and also a profit sharing program where we share our profits back to the employees at the end of each year.
