Pros

friendly people, nice office. all for show. to get you to sign their papers.

Cons

Lied about the hours, lied about the job description, lied about payment. THE SALARY IS A LIE. They told me I'd make 600 a week minimum. This company is loyal to NO ONE. They reserve the right to change their practices, abuse their employees, and DENY PAYMENT. Read the contract. I was told I'd be selling perfume. When I came in, they gave me a Sprint shirt, changed the hours, and form of payment, eliminating the salary all together! So, I walked door to door for 8 hours and made NOTHING because they pulled the salary out from under me without ever telling me. They said they told me it was commission only. Perfume was commission too. They will tell you one thing and do another. I'm the marketing manager for a restoration company. If you have the skills and tenacity to do this job, I promise you, you can do better.

Pros

Learning amazing skill sets, and growing personally and professionally. Learning things I can't learn in college

Cons

Not really a con, but you work 45-50 hours a week.

Pros

Working with this company was both the most challenging and most rewarding thing I've ever done in my entire life. Their management training program that they offer definitely developed me into the business owner that I am today. The reviews on this company and others like SD Events are likely from people who left the business because they weren't tough enough to make it through the program. When things get gritty and difficult people tend to quit things and look for others to throw blame at versus taking accountability. I'll admit, I had plenty of days I wanted to quit, but because I stuck it out through a year of their training program, I know run my own successful business and use everything I learned from my mentors there on a day to day basis.

Cons

Long hours, when they say you have to pour yourself into it, they mean it. Salary after paid training. For me wasn't really a con because I came from the service industry and was used to working my a** off to make money. The idea of commission excited me, it's really up to the perspective of the future employee... do you want to create your own wealth and have someone determine it for you. Most people choose the latter.
