Pros
None! What an absolute scam!! I wish I’d looked at these reviews before I’d given up a perfectly good job.
Cons
Misled at interview and looked forward to starting. On the first day I find out I’m ’Self Employed’ ie I have to pay for my own DBS check, equipment, travel and expenses. I have no holiday/ sick/ pension etc. Dodgy Danny advertises this as a benefit!! That I have flexibility! Load of nonsense as I am obliged to attend three days training at my cost, and then to continue attending training every morning at my cost and no pay. The sales takes place outside a supermarket or similar where I am trying to sell lottery tickets etc to the public. If I get two sales I’ll get £75 (and then £3 for every sale after that), if I don’t I’ll get nothing. I’m not allowed to sell to under 28’s and not allowed to take cash. I turned down £200 in cash on one of my training days. How does that help charities? I left home at 7am and didn’t get home until 9pm. My ‘mentor’ and experienced brand ambassador who is selling the service telling me she manages to make £22k a year and what a great service this is. 12/14 hour days, no breaks and no money if you don’t get a sale! She got two sales on my training days and she was supposed to be a positive example. Dodgy Danny is a bully and a liar. He’s raking it in taking money from charities whilst exploiting young people. All the while dodging his employer responsibilities and costs. I’d love to know how he explains away the IR35 requirements here of self employment!
