Pros

I can't really think of any positives for this company. I guess they do a good job talking highly of the job, advancement rate, and success Etc... but what I can say is that I learned a valuable life lesson in that if it seems too good to be true, it probably isn't real!

Cons

Well where do I even start.... While working for the company we were told to build our team at any cost. Before I even realized it, we were sucked in and taught to mislead and lie to interviews to get them to accept the jobs. The company claims that the hiring process is extensive, but that's a joke! It all depends if the employee you shadow for the day likes you. If they do you get the job; if not, well you get the point. The management uses manipulation and threats to keep employees around. If you think about quitting or ask any kind of questions you are immediately written off as negative, stupid, or my favorite: "unable to recognize the opportunity"! Frequent manipulations used by the company: if you quit, you're weak . If you don't make a certain amount per week, you're weak. What else could you possibly do to ever make Money? Don't you want to buy your future children whatever they need? And if you ask how you can better yourself to make more money, you are often told to "see more doors, your pitch is incorrect or needs work, work harder..." You may see good reviews on sites but there were even days where we were Not Allowed to leave in the morning until we wrote good reviews on sites such as this. Once the reviews were written, we were allowed to go out to the field and actually do our job.

Pros

The opportunity for growth within this company is amazing. There is a strong sense of team work. Whenever someone is struggling your leader or owner is there for support. I've found that the confidence I have in myself has grown exponentially. Each day is an opportunity for me to push myself harder. For anyone wanting the opportunity to run a business this is the place to start

Cons

The only con that I can think of is that this isn't always for everybody. It can be intimidating to go into businesses but for me that has only helped me grow personally and professionally.

Pros

In my opinion I think this opportunity is great as far as learning leadership skills. I worked at Hemingway and enjoyed my time with the company. working with customers on a day to day basic was key for me getting me moving to the next level. my parents did not like the position of direct sales better later learned that it's the most effective way. listening to a interview with Donald Trump going through the pros of direct sales I was sold.

Cons

I just graduated and did not understand the opportunity at the time but i do now. I am not at Hemingway due to moving back to Georgia after finishing at Marquette to work for my dad's company. Some of the clients were not nice but at the end of the day that did not matter.
