Pros

There is not a single pro.

Cons

This company promises huge earning potential, but in my experience, it was completely unrealistic. It felt more like a pyramid scheme than a legitimate job opportunity. I wasn't told the role was self-employed until my first day of unpaid training, which should have been made clear during the recruitment process. There are also unexpected costs, including £5 a day for travel and £10 a week to use a company tablet, meaning you're paying out money before you've earned much. The advertised hours of 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. are misleading because you don't get paid until 2 p.m., and the daily pay worked out to around £77. The workplace culture was also disappointing. We were constantly told that anyone could be replaced, while being expected to stay positive at all times because "negative mindsets don't get sales." I found this contradictory and demoralising. Overall, I felt the company lacked transparency about the role, the pay structure, and the costs involved. I'd recommend asking plenty of questions before accepting a position.

We're sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations. We aim to be as transparent as possible throughout our recruitment process and explain any expectations upfront so that individuals can make an informed decision about whether the opportunity is right for them. Our payment structure is explained during the initial zoom appointment, but we have taken on board the points raised to ensure more clarity moving forward. We're disappointed to hear your feedback regarding the culture. We encourage a positive, supportive environment where people are treated with respect, and we do not condone behaviour that makes anyone feel undervalued. We will continue to review our recruitment process. We appreciate your feedback and wish you every success in your future career.
