Pros

The people where nice and the team building was very fun. Also meeting so many people while on the job was cook as well.

Cons

THIS JOB IS A TOTAL SCAM.. YOU WORK LONG 8AM-9PM SHIFTS ONLY TO BE PAID OFF OF COMMISSION. THE JOB IN ITSELF WAS PROFESSIONAL PANHANDLING OR BEGGING SHOPPERS FOR MONEY

The Ultimate Marketing team is in no way a scam. We do not work the normal 9-5 office job, but that was laid out during our interview process. We do not "panhandle", our team is fundraising based for our clients. We do offer a compensation plan that includes a base salary and commission. If you have any question please contact our HR team at hr@ultimatemkting.com.

Pros

None, this place is a scam

Cons

Long Hours- 9AM-8PM Begging people on the streets for money for a cause that they chalk up to be so valuable and helpful, when in reality "D.A.R.E" is a laughing stock of a program Cult Like Pyramid Scheme Absolutely dreadful pay. Be ready to work 11 hour days and still end up averaging less than 10$/hr.

I am sorry you felt that way. This is definitely not the right career path for everyone we are only looking for true entrepreneurs . People who understand the value of learning the business inside and outside from the bottom to the top. We do this in a very fast pace Partner development program that the majority of people cant keep up with. So in short yes it must have not been the right fit for you. But we have 5 success stories for everyone of these kind of failures

Pros

Weekly pay, energetic work atmosphere, teamwork. Good job for someone with no sales or work experience at all as training is in depth. Also good for someone with college experience looking to make a career.

Cons

During the interview process, didn’t really describe responsibilities. I asked specifically what I would be doing during a typical day, and was not told I’d be begging people for $$. I honestly felt guilty trying to sell anti-bullying packages to citizens when I had no idea how much $$ actually went to the program after it cycles through the company; you’re not selling an actual product the customer can use right away, you’re guilt tripping them. Wasn’t a fan. Not to mention income is not guaranteed and can be hit or miss (as usual in sales)

Thank for your feedback back. We do know our company isnt the right fit for everybody and we are sorry to hear it wasn't the right fit for you. But there are a few inaccuracies to your review I would love to discuss. Like begging people for money , we do fundraise at set events by sharing our mission with the community but I would definitely not consider that begging, its more like informing the public about how they could get involved in their community
