MultiView Reviews

When I initially applied to MultiView I was fresh out of school. They invited me to a speed dating interview. <90 seconds spent with 5 or more interviewers. Not much depth to the interview and actually was pretty off putting. Almost declined the offer based on this interview practice; however this was mid recession and I was grateful to have a job. The first year was rough. Fortunately, around my 9th month and working for my 4th boss, I landed on a team where my lead took an interest in helping me improve. After their guidance, which was not standard at MultiView, I found moderate success and slowly worked my way through sales ranks and made a good bit of money. I kept at it because the compensation was appropriate for the effort the job took. I never felt incredibly strong about our offerings. The media solutions provided do fit a need helping underserved Small- medium sized B2B orgs who don’t have a ton of money or staff resources. However the go to market strategy can be incredibly sleazy and is a culture cultivated from the top down. I’ve seen reps blatantly lie to advertisers. I’ve seen the executives tell sales people to process invoices that haven’t been authorized. Unlike the rest of the digital media industry they don’t abide by IAB terms and conditions even though they have some of the sellers go through IAB certification courses. this means that there are no opt-outs with their mostly 12 month flights. This leads to unhappy customers who end up chatting with the collections department when they want to exit the relationship but MultiView won’t let them loose. They have knowingly hired felons, which in and of itself can be perfectly fine. Unfortunately, the one instance that comes to mind was a seller who spoofed email addresses from clients to sign contracts and authorize bills. This was the same crime that they went to prison for. Management let it slide for a little more than a year because it gave the appearance to other sellers that the impossible was possible. They were writing off fraudulent invoices for about a year trying to correct the mess that this one seller created. It was a running joke in the office and probably still is. During my time there, cursing to subordinates was common place. In some instances I’m sure it would constitute verbal abuse. I’ve seen the low attrition for tenured reps touted by the HR department, but from what I can tell it’s due to the monetary obligations the sellers have. If you can make it through 1-2 years at MultiView you will accumulate a decent sized book of business that in many instances is booked out for 12 months of more with incremental payments coming in. Sellers have a hard time leaving 10s of thousands of dollars on the table by leaving.

Before you chalk this up to a disgruntled ex employee who was probably fired....I was there for a short period of time and actually made sales. I left on my own terms because of the trends I saw and didn't like. I wanted to find stability and money and happiness. So please do take this seriously. Do not buy into the "bonus" structure....it's a facade that when you leave (and you will) they legally do NOT have to pay you. I was messed out of almost $2k. Even if you leave on good terms, they will still lie to you in your useless exit interview. So be honest. You don't have anything to lose out on. Do not let the fake title of Marketing Coordinator fool you. This is a telemarketing job. Do not let them lie to you, you WILL be making more than 80 calls a day and you WILL be hung up on all 80 calls, and NO, it is NOT easy to get to 135 minutes a day while 99.9% of your calls are 10 seconds long. And NO, it is NOT either or. you will be required to make a zillion calls and a zillion minutes a day. Be prepared to be treated like a child. Be prepared to be promised a job where your experience matters. Management, and I use that word LIGHTLY, is a joke. These are people who can't get jobs anywhere else. They will not help you train to get better, but, they will expect volumes out of you. They will roll their eyes when they give you lists of uninterested people to call, and you tell them you've called the list 3 times. They want you to call at least 10 times before "giving up." Very unhealthy work environment full of people who sold just enough to get where they are and won't leave because they don't know what a real sales job is.
