Pros

One perk is that it's a very optimistic environment, however its an extremely misleading advertisement for applicants. It says things like you're becoming a "Publice Relaions assistant" NOT TRUE. You're in warehouses in Costco's and Sam's Clubs for 8 hours a day selling things like mops and weight loss tea. On the other hand the marketing systems and time management experience gained in invaluable.

Cons

I say the time management and skills are great bc you have to be. If you're not, then this company will chew you up and spit you out. They have extremely high expectations which is normal for a management team, however they will make you drive all the way to the office for a ten minute meeting you drove an hour in traffic both ways for, so if you're not local, forget about it. Also, your "TIME OFF/DAYS OFF" aren't really considered to be your own. I know on my birthday I worked a shift in the morning after the 8 am meetings (that you still have to go to on days off) and then proceeded to work from 9-5 go home for an two hours then meet back up at a Costco to set up booths for a campaign I wasn't a part of. Why? Bc they expect you to have no life and sacrifice now in order to make your way with LOW WAGES/COMMISSION bc of the fact that people run from you. You don't get paid HOURLY so they take ADVANTAGE of your TIME/EFFORTS. This is bc they say you earn a lot after the first year and once you get into management- $100k! With big dreams i worked day in day out to suck up to my "leaders" who give feedback on your "growth" as entry level and you know what? People around me dropped like flies and finally myself too. They say its bc "not everyone can stick with a good opportunity or not everyone can push through" ….NO not everyone wants to be used and taken advantage of and rewarded for sacrificing days off with a pat on the back and low pay for all the excess hours! Lastly, the office environment can be fun but it can be VERY cliquey. If you don't like that work environment, don't go this way. I've never had a problem making friends, but with everyone starting at the same position, everyone fights and claws their way to the top with sneering and snide comments from peers that aren't "uplifting" as they would like you to think, but abrasive. With everyone being hired bc we're chief material to make it to management, there aren't enough indians to make it smooth. in short: 1/10 people make it to management to make the 100+ k a year, SO DONT BE USED FOR LONG WAREHOUSE HOURS AND RIDICULOUSLY POOR COMMISSION ON MEDIOCRE PRODUCTS THAT NO BODY WANTS.

Pros

This company has nothing to hide and offers a really great and unique experience. Yes, the entry level includes sales/marking experience but honestly, it's a great skill set to learn. Most companies in general admire any type of sales skills so Denver Presents, Inc. really caters to that. Anyone who wants to gain experience and would be interested in opportunities for promotions within this is a great fit.

Cons

Not for the lazy or ego-centered person. Humble hard working people only.

Pros

lots of learning and information all in a short time frame.

Cons

okay....so first they tell you they care about you and want to help you but when it comes to work or your personal life, you can forget about your personal life! This job requires lots of your time!! Sometimes you feel that all you do is work for this place since you have to get up really early in the morning to go to the meeting which at times is pointless and then go straight to the field and work all day and just have to do it again the next day. If you don't make your sales goals even though you tried your hardest, they will blame you and say its your fault. they don't care how bad the weather is, they will make you go no matter what. all this talk about how hard work pays off once you become manager. yeah i want them to rethink about that if the manager is still working in the field and still putting the amount of hours. this company has a HIGH turnover rate! The majority of people don't last more than a month or two. That should be a clear sign for you that this company is not worth your time. These people leaving are not lazy, they are just smart.
