Pros

The job is flexible for the most part.

Cons

I have worked for Crossmark for nearly 3.5 years. Upon hire I did not hear from my Supervisor or receive any assignments for for nearly a month. On that note Supervisors are always extremely accomodating, to your face. They tell you what you want to hear so you can be temporarily placated. For instance I have been promised a raise for the past 2.5 years. Still nothing! In fact, in speaking with other employees, some have been with this company for a decade with no increase in wages or compensation whatsoever!' Onto job flexibility! Yes, you are in charge of your schedule. However, as a part time employee I am often assigned 50-60 hours of work per week that I am expected to complete for my part time wage and woefully inadequate travel and mileage compensation. I often go 1200 miles a week but the company only sees fit to compensate for 900 or so miles. The mileage reimbursement is a joke being less than half of the federal minimum! Yes the difference could be a tax write off if they paid you enough that you actually had to pay in. In my time hear, the operating systems and "rules" have changed at least 8 or 9 times. Currently the new "Timesheet" system which theyve implemented, puts all responsibility on the employee to ensure they get paid. This was all automated in the past and is just another way for the company to reduce its overhead at its lowest level employees expense. As a matter of fact, the system is so buggy that your pay is often delayed or withheld through no fault of your own! And good luck getting a response from the payroll department or your supervisor on the matter. To add further insult to injury new employees are often hired at higher starting wages than previous employees. One woman I recently trained was hired at a payrate of $2.51 more than I have been making these past years. I could go on, but hopefully Ive given anyone looking into this company reason to pause and reconsider.l They are a monolithic billion dollar company, none of the millions Ive generated for them have trickled down whatsoever.

Pros

No pros working at crossmark

Cons

an honest example of your day, we will pay you for 15 minutes to run up to a Walmart. For that 15 minutes we will expect you to read instructions for any new changes, run in and check in with a manager, find our product, count our products exactly, go to the back room and find our products (which is by far the longest step), count our products in the back exactly, bring our products to the front of the store, take pictures and answer questions, remove all old products, stock by date, take pictures and answer questions. If this takes you 25-30 minutes, which is probably a more accurate accounting, we will still only pay you for 15. If you are lucky there may be another job that day, but if not you will be expected to waste your gas, drive to the Walmart that we demanded, and work that 15 minute job alone. In that case we will be demanding that you take an hour out of your day for $3.00.
