Not a marketing job

Pros

People are very nice, fun and relaxed interview

Cons

Don't fall for headlines on job search engines. They change the title several times to think you're going to be in true marketing, which is false. It is actually sales. You'l be inside of a warehouse doing sales for a cable company. So if you don't mind that, then go for it! Commission doesn't even start until after a certain amount of sales, which is VERY hard to reach, and your sales restart every week. So until you get promoted, commission is rare. They also reiterate being a "duplicate" of your superiors which gives off a "robotic" vibe to me.

Hello Reviewer and thank for taking the time to share and please allow me to address your concerns. We are in fact a marketing company. Our clients consider us to be as such as well as the state. We are rated A+ through the BBB and have a strict policy against misleading customer, clients, employees, as well as potential candidates, There are job positions that vary based on the area of interest for a candidate. So, we have multiple listings or "positions" on different job boards. We apologize if you felt misled. Marketing comes in many different forms. We have individuals who work in our organization that conduct direct sales, others through social media and web design, and some through telecommunications. We have some clients where representatives work alongside of the biggest retailers helping to build brands, participate in sales, and provide customer service to show us they are able to do so. We consider field training to be an essential component of the screening process for management positions. We provide bonus incentives based on performance. Our employees have a competitive base pay, and have an opportunity to earn more based on the quality of their work. There is no politics involved in the process which we believe is the right way to do business. Additionally we pay significantly more than comparable positions. The degree of difficulty depends on that individuals competency and skill level. We don't use that term "superior" because we don't believe any person, including myself, be superior to another. We encourage every employee to learn from those who know more and yes, "duplicate" that success. I hope we have addressed each concern in detail to give some perspective and understanding. Please reach out to hr@atmospherainc.com if you have any addition concerns and thank you for helping us to improve.

Terrible Business Process

Pros

......not much to say besides that they have a great location by the water and their building is quite beautiful.

Cons

All I can say is how disappointed I was in this company. Not even going to elaborate besides saying if you have been with a company for 3+ years and was thinking about leaving it to work here....not worth it. At this point I wouldn't be surprised if they had their "trainers" making an account with glassdoor and leaving some positive reviews of Atmosphera. Overall just disappointed with the process and leadership apects.

Pros

Management is very enticing, motivational and inspirational. People are positive and like minded. You get to hang out with coworkers for team building.

Cons

This job is meant for those who are enthusiastic enough to sell Direct TV to Costco members. Its not easy work.

Dear Applicant, Thank you for taking the time to address your concerns. Our program is designed to teach, develop, and train, and vet candidates into a management position working with the 2nd largest retailer in the world and the 4th largest company in the world within 4-6 months. We are not in the business of simply hiring "sales people". This is a management training paid internship with lots of bonus potential. However, every manager should understand sales techniques and behaviors to better represent their brand and their products. This is a fundamental part of almost all management and marketing positions. In the beginning, we focus on teaching candidates this behavior. Some candidates find this to be extremely easy and fun, and some find it more challenging - hence the reason we have a "development program" in the first place. I think we can all agree that cashiering may be difficult for some and easy for others. I could say the same thing for swimming, or speaking another language. My point, humbly speaking, is we understand everything will not come easy for some of our candidates. So, given that we all have different strengths and weaknesses, our goal is to promote our candidates' strengths, develop their weaknesses, and ultimately place them as the head of one of our open market territories. As far as our training goes, we feel confident with the direction we have taken to move our company in the right direction. This does not mean we can't improve. I believe we can ALL improve. And in just 1.5 years, we have expanded 3 fold, been published on YAHOO!, MSN, and MARKETWIRE, in recognition for our achievements of growth and development and culture. This we are quite proud of. Again, thank you so much for taking time participating in our program and we wish you the best of luck with your job search.
