Pros

Made some good friends here, but it feels more like a trauma bond.

Cons

It's honestly difficult to find a good place to start. I worked there for a few years mainly because I truly enjoyed selling CBD. It became incredibly difficult to sell the products due to the inconsistency of keeping the products in stock , their formulas, label changes, etc. Many, many products have been discontinued for unrelated and unobvious reasons. This upset a lot of customers. I felt like 60% of my job was apologizing and trying to make up for the lack of care that they exude. Management severely lacked accountability for anything and instead would just have turn over. I worked there for 4 years and never got a day extra of PTO even though this was promised initially. After 4 years of blood, sweat and tears... my pay was CUT due to a lack of ability to track commissions. When I tried to ask questions about this, I was told: "it is what it is." Management of the sales team was lacking in leadership, care, accountability and simply was not fit to lead a team nor execute their own sales. Lastly, there was zero diversity. Everyone that works there other than warehouse workers are white and it is 100% true that there is a massive pay gap between genders. Men always had the advantage in this company and there was rarely women in leading roles. I highly recommend NOT accepting a position with this company. Nothing that was promised ever came to fruition.

Pros

Free cbd product samples if you want..

Cons

Worthless products no one wants, cold calling smoke shops All day for very small $ amount orders. $500 orders doesn’t translate well to future job opportunities. Avoid this place. ALSO the pay was trash- basically school teacher base salary with no true commission plans in place. My paychecks never varied regardless of what was sold that month.
