Pros

front desk workers are talkative and peppy base plus commission, but not enough to live on

Cons

prey on entry level college grads to get them into a sales position. this is not a marketing only position. it is sales for Verizon Fios. they pride themselves on not cold calling, but that is because they get their leads from Verizon and you have to go door to door. only paid for some of your gas IF you make a sale.

Thanks for your feedback. You are correct we are a sales and marketing firm that works with Verizon. We do enjoy providing recent graduates with an opportunity to grow and develop. Unfortunately sales and marketing is not for everyone, albeit I am glad that you enjoyed talking to members of our human resources staff. Thanks again and good luck with your future endeavors.

Pros

I know that sounds crazy, but honestly the fundamentals of what I learned while a entry level manager at 212, are exactly what I needed. What they call their 4's, 5's and 8's, I apply in my life, on a daily basis. I Love the fun working atmosphere, the nights at Dave and Busters, and all the cool people I have met with, and of course hanging with the boss is pretty cool.

Cons

The only con I can think of is, that you have to be self motivated to be successful!! If you are a couch potato, don't even bother... no lazies needed!

Pros

Overall I had alot of fun at this job, and began to learn alot. The hardest part of my day was making sure I got to work on time and the rest was taking care of. I enjoyed the fact that everyday was not repetitive and it was always someone or somewhere else new. The co-workers here love to hang out and have office nights which made it the best social environment I have ran into at a job before.

Cons

Had to move to take care of my ill Grandmother and was not able to continue with the business even though I was advancing tup in the business quickly.
