Scam Position

Pros

None, the people are nice but it's easy to be nice when you're not paying someone.

Cons

Won't hire you right away instead you are placed in PEP/pre employment, this way they don't have to pay you or give you benefits. You are only offered employment after you make a certain amount of sales. Leads are very low quality. Constant turn over because of how bad the position is, your VP will be constantly interviewing and trying to trick new people into joining. You have to pay for the training and it is only returned if you contract. Getting paid takes forever even when you do make a sale. The software you use is charged to you via a payroll deduction, and the IT department is outsourced, incredibly unhelpful, and they deduct it from you pay. Do not work at this company.
