Questionable practices within the company. You hear the same redundant and misleading information repeated frequently. The job is essentially one of those people who flag you down in the mall to try products, only it’s in wholesale stores. You have to call suppliers and hear them describe the products you’re going to be selling, but they don’t consider it sales. They do not allow for you to interact with the entry level employees, which can be frustrating since you’re expected to network. I assume this is because they don’t want the new hires to interact with anyone who isn’t a completely brainwashed sycophant. The people you’re supposed to network with are senior employees who talk in circles with ambiguous upbeat language. In the field you will earn roughly $7 per hour and working 12-14 hour days for 7-10 days straight for at least a year without base salary. Nobody I knew past or present ever earned more than $700 in a paycheck. You’re also expected to resource call in the field, which seems unnecessary, but if you’re not constantly calling people to check in you’re never going to be promoted. Lastly, there’s definitely the overall feeling that the company is dependent on brainwashing employees. You have to participate in office rituals like chanting, repetition, and buy into this fairytale of becoming a successful entrepreneur. While it fosters a sense of community, I feel like it’s mostly a way to keep employee morale high because if not for the morale, there is no reason to work so hard and for such long hours when you could earn more money and work fewer hours delivering pizza. They expect a substantial investment from their employees but have little to offer in terms of compensation, personal and professional advancement, or work/life balance.
