Very unprofessional

Pros

The co workers were nice the one time they scheduled me for training. The concept seems fun and the reactions from the people playing are hilarious.

Cons

I was interviewed and hired by management and was scheduled to train for about 3 days. I only trained one day. I was transitioning from one job to another and when I told the manager I put in my two weeks at my old job and my date of fully availability, she didn't like it and proceeded to completely ignore my emails, calls, and voicemails. By the time my two weeks were up at another job, I was going completely to voicemail and havent heard a word from them since. I was unemployed for about a month after that. I think that was very unprofessional and child like and left a very bad impression.

Pros

Opportunity in professional sales Usually good work environment

Cons

Long hours-talking 10 hours a day You will get very little time off. Weekends are a must basically Friday is your new Monday Very little to almost no training You’ll end up doing a lot of Manual labor and work Paid off a % and not price margins, plus not really any incentive to sell People who work for the corporate office, truly don’t care about their employees only about business and that’s it.
