Pros

Nonexistent. None. Nothing. I tried to think of something positive but I can’t.

Cons

No real “opportunities”. Commute from 2 locations a day around the city of Houston. Long hours with very little pay. Lack of communication. Immature and childish culture. Very deceiving about what the job requires. Company is a MLM posing as a marketing firm.

Five Nine Solutions Response

Dear Reviewer, I do want to thank you for leaving us a review because we do take them seriously. I don't see a response as a waste of time, since I do want to address your concerns. First, just to clarify we are not a pyramid scheme by any means: pyramid scheme is "a form of investment (illegal in the US and elsewhere) in which each paying participant recruits two further participants, with returns being given to early participants using money contributed by later ones.." We are a W2 type of company that offers either hourly or salary wages, plus bonuses. We do not pay people for recruiting or ask our employees to invest in the company. I am sure you received a paycheck every Friday regardless of any production done during that pay period. Second, we do not tell our employees to rate us 5 stars. We encourage our employees to leave us a review, we like to hear feedback. We also have an open door policy that we discuss on your 1st day. We appreciate honesty and transparency. We hope you find a better position that fits what you are looking for. Remember that marketing is "the action or business of promoting and selling products or services" that way you have a better understanding during your job search.

Pros

The leads and supervisors are with you supporting you and helping you reach your goals with whatever you need. It's a great supportive system. The work was very rewarding, though it was a lot of hours. Also, the growth opportunities are amazing if you put in the work. I got promoted just 2 months into it, and that's a testament to the amazing support you have access to.

Cons

It's really fast paced, you often work many hours. I also usually worked on Saturdays as well.
