Thank you for taking the time to offer feedback, however we're slightly concerned that you may have confused Arete22 with another company as we don't actually offer door to door roles as we are not a door to door company. We exclusively run event marketing campaigns in public venues.

Pros

They are good actors .

Cons

This is a scam, do not waste your time. They advertise misleading jobs. They expect you to DIRECT SELL on the streets and do not pay even the minimum. These people are such good actors by making everyone wear business attire and try to look professional. You can see how unprofessional Cyril Williams is on one of the videos on their "website". "you know... you know...".

Pros

Unfortunately, the only pro I found during my short time at Arete22 was the money and the speed you can progress to management - even though management doesn't actually change your job role.

Cons

- Work colleagues were superficial and there was a massive hierarchy throughout the 'team'. I found the 'team' I was with rude and they seemed completely uninterested in me which as a starter, made me feel uncomfortable. This seemed to be a common theme with everyone who worked for the company. - I felt like I couldn't become friends with my colleagues, I was told not to ask others how they did during a day of work which I found ridiculous. - Very full on, long days, expected to pay for your own travel. - FALSELY ADVERTISED every single job is exactly the same regardless of the name on the advert. You will be doing direct sales, standing on the street in the cold approaching people to get them to make donations to a charity or a membership - You're also self employed.
