Pros
There are no positives except the fact you can quit straight away due to probation and they actually paid me for my weeks work. Here are some negatives: They lied about the fact you needed to do all your client research (canvassing) outside of your work hours so an extra 3 hours a day. They also expect you to do research over the weekends for free and text you on Sunday harassing telling you to find 100 clients. All this extra work unpaid of course. They also cut your lunch hour if sales are not being hit. They also created a culture of intimidation where if the boss said everyone was working until 9pm then that is what happened. Very high targets for people who are not managers closing the deals. And the extra hours you have to work actually takes the job way below minimum wage so even if you hit the high targets, you only really got paid like £10 an hour when factoring in all the unpaid hours.
Cons
Culture is weird and almost bordering on a cult. They get majority young people in so they’re less likely to object to horrible work practices. Unless you’re honestly about to get kicked out of your house for not paying mortgage or rent, I wouldn’t advise this job at all. I left after a week and found a much better and higher paying role. Don’t settle. Life is too short.
