Pros

If you can go 60 days without getting paid from this job, you will learn that there are better industries and companies that you should pursue.

Cons

This is a highly competitive industry that is beyond saturated with sales people and a reputation of slick and sleazy sales tricks. Business owners consider you the lowest of the low that call on them for business. Very little of what they will tell you turns out to be the case when you are in the field. They do things different from a compensation standpoint and product offerings but in the end you will figure out that there is nothing special. If you have a college degree, value it and find something else to pay your bills and build experience. Working at corporate seems to be satisfactory which is why the ratings are inflated much higher than they should be. If you are looking to work in the field you will be on an island and realize that you have been wasting your time and making no money.

Thank you for the feedback. We agree, the job isn't easy. If it was, everyone would be doing it. Where we do disagree: everyone at Corporate is here to support, and our Sales Partners are not on islands. As you mentioned, we have differentiated compensation and product offerings and we do believe that in-fact they are special. We're proud of our team, we're proud of our Sales Partners, and we're proud of what we bring to the table. All that said - we are always looking to improve. If there are specific things you believe we can be doing better, I'd love to hear from you directly: rj@spoton.com

A pyramid scheme in the works.

Pros

I don’t have a single good thing to say.

Cons

Incredibly misleading hiring practices and compensation structure. You will be forced into whatever compensation structure they want you in. You will get a different answer from every person you speak to in the company. They expect you to work without compensation until you reach certain sales quotas. If you say something your manager doesn’t like expect to get a call from their president. Need I say more?

First and foremost: we are not engaging in a pyramid scheme, and hate that you feel that way. Rather than a negative, I believe that me calling to discuss compensation reinforces how seriously we take making sure people are paid correctly. We do appreciate your feedback though. We are constantly looking to improve and making sure that people aren't speaking over you and are communicating a consistent message is extremely important. We'll reinforce that to our team. Please feel free to email me directly if you'd like to discuss further: rj@spoton.com

Pros

Owners President leadership and fellow employees have your back. The best POS in class. Fabulous value proposition. 100% transparent. The rewards a huge!

Cons

You have to work hard. That's not a con but more of your own work ethic. Been here going on 3 years.. No con at all!
