Pros

If you can’t find any other job paying close to minimum wage it’s a job that at least pays you that and it’s not hard to get full time hours. If you got the “right” (wrong?) attitude you may be able to make good money.

Cons

The basic: Not benefits, work 6 times a week, work everyday the store is open, and mentally draining job, high turnover, so high they interview people everyday. I left a a higher paying job in a call center with benefits because they made it sound so exciting with a lot of room for advancement . But You’re going to be that annoying DirectTv sales person that everyone hates at Costco and Sams Club. If you’re not pushy and would not like to bother people this job it’s not for you. To succeed you basically need to bother customers going in the stores if they want direct tv. Most people would ignore you, badmouth direct tv or be straight up rude because they are tired of being asked the same every time they go there. The stress it’s really high as to make a living wage you need to sell and sells can be hard. Old reps would go an entire week with one sale and they’d do sketchy things to get more. Sometimes I wonder how they allow this in the stores. Also they treat people like middle schoolers. They write reports for people getting there 5 mins later to cut their paychecks, but would make you leave training half an hour late. Parking in Downtown Orlando is very expensive and you could get fined for overstaying. The person who said in the review he/she didn’t get paid it’s truth. The last week I worked there I made not sales and got paid a lot less than the amount I should have been paid, but I got not energy to deal with them.

Aimark Response

READ ENTIRE RESPONSE IF YOU WANT THE FACTS! Thank you for taking the time to review our company! We do want to make 10 points about your post, as we feel everyone is so quick to judge without knowing more facts: 1. Yes! Our hourly pay is much higher than the current minimum wage in FL. 2. We work in retail; therefore, we must accommodate to the usual holiday sales and events. Our weekly schedules include am/pm half shifts, full shifts and employees can request more days off if needed. If you need a basic 9-5, Monday to Friday job, you definitely need a different industry. 3. You left a “higher” paying job for no reason? Why were you applying for other jobs then? That doesn’t sound like a great move on your end. 4. You worked at a call center, right? So, I guess you were just fine being “that annoying telemarketer” on the phone instead. 5. You want to work somewhere where there are no repercussions for showing up late? I guess work ethic and following basic rules are not your thing. 6. Any staff member that is NOT compliant with the sales procedures established by our company and our clients, cannot be part of our firm. Nothing “sketchy” will be allowed. Ever. 7. Our office training and meetings are PAID, no matter how long they take. 8. Please do not try to work, hang out, eat, or visit Downtown Orlando if you do not want to pay for parking! Free parking is rare. Our staff ONLY parks in Downtown for meetings and office training Monday-Friday in the morning. Our work takes place at the retail locations where ALL parking is FREE! 9. The other review you try to make mention to, about someone “not getting paid” is not accurate. Our company has never withheld payments to employees for work they have done and hours they have completed. 10. Lastly, if you feel you haven’t been compensated correctly, please reach out immediately to our HR Department at aimark.hr@gmail.com and we will take care of your concerns. Again, thank you for your review and we wish you the best!
