Pros

Networking, improvement on sales skills, team building

Cons

Expect to interview with an extremely charismatic interviewer, who drops names like Louis Vuitton and alludes to you working, booking and managing large events for nonprofits, making a difference in your community and eventually pitching your own ideas to these companies, being in charge of your own events. In all reality, you will not see an "event" outside of team building. Upward movement is you moving into the charismatic interviewer position and recruiting unsuspecting "employees" as well. You will spend long, tedious hours in low income community grocery stores attempting to get people to switch to Spectrum, none of which is detailed until pretty far into the interview process. There is no hourly pay, the interviewer directly and outwardly lied about this.

Pros

Learned confidence, how to speak better about things, and more confidently. I also now have a summer horror story to tell my friends.

Cons

Shame I can't give a 0 star rating. Came into work hoping to make some money during the summer of college. Ended up losing all the money I had saved up on rides to the office, lodging, and traveling. During the interview, they said that I would be paid $400 weekly, with opportunities for entrepreneurship and learning. In reality, it is only when I arrived at the office on my first day that they had the wonderful idea to tell me that I would ONLY be paid on commissions and ONLY if I made a sale. And to add insult to injury, I would be standing in a Kroger's for 7 hours every day begging people to buy internet only to get ignored. And when you DO manage to make a sale, you would only get paid two weeks after, or only when the person actually installs the product. After having already traveled to the city, I had no choice but to stick with it and hope to make some money. Granted, I was a TERRIBLE salesperson, but I would have never taken this job if they had been upfront and honest about the pay and what I would be doing. Everybody at the office is also super weird about "work ethic" and "opportunities for advancement", it almost feels cult-ish. Meanwhile, the CEO's sidekicks have been doing this same job for years now and have had nothing to show for it at all, at least during the time I was there. I suspect the positive reviews on here are by these same people as well, because there is no way anyone can enjoy doing this day in and day out for years and think that there are any opportunities there. So, unless you want to be exploited for weeks on end before you're able to make some meager money, run away.
