Pros
No pros. I'm not a disgruntled employee. I never got in any trouble. In fact I was decent at it. I just want to send a warning to as many people as possible to help you save your time, effort, and money. So I'll start my qualms in the con category. But first hand I can tell you don't listen to the positive reviews because they are mostly fabricated by management and the "hr". I know because I have witnessed it. One was literally created by management about my friend and he didn't even know about it. This company is totally full of it. 100% liars.
Cons
Fit of all the lie from the jump. Very ambiguously tell you the ins and outs of the job in the interview. Making you think it's something your not. I know first hand. I conducted some interviews.... I couldn't feed the vague answers and blantant lies they tell the interviewees. If you don't listen to the multiple of bad reviews on here and go to the interview drill them with questions and I promise they will fold. It is NOT an office environment. And is NOT 11-8 those are just the hours you are absolutely required to be there. The real hours are like 8-9 (even 10). Because "leaders" are considered lazy and useless if they don't show up by at least 9. Some get there even earlier. And you will be pressured to do so. You do not start as an account manager. You start as an account rep which means you follow your trainer in the field on day one from 1:30-8:00. You have to be able to pitch a customer by yourself and close a sale. Because... It's DOOR TO DOOR SALES. Uverse Direct TV In sometimes trailer parks and sometimes ghettos. In it the office with a bunch of unprofessional college grads til 1 at the latest. Drive to the field in your own car and you will be looked at unfavorably if you don't have a car. Knock on doors til 8. Then leave and depending on where you are at that could easily be a 45 minute drive. Get back to the office and then they want new people to hang out just to make them feel better about their bad day in the field. Breaking down a day is solely there to make the new employees forget their bad day. Even the games after. Leaders stay until everyone leaves. 10 most of the time. Then you are strongly pressured to go to office night. You will not have a life. Sunday you are off but so exhausted from the week you won't do anything. 100% commissioned based. And they justify it by saying there are two people afraid of 100 % commission: lazy people and people who think they can't do it. But the twister is even if you get someone to sign up and they cancel you don't get paid for that sale. Fact is you can literally have $0 checks because of this. Because of the high pressure sales tactics they teach you. The biggest con is the managers are bona-fide liars. They will literally lie to your face. They rush people out at one because they have interviews coming in every day 3-4 a day and they don't want the interviewees to see the employees in their field clothes. It's all a disguise. Atmosphere in the office is designed to make the employees feel better about their career. You could easily be knocking on doors for 2 years before being promoted to assistant managers who still knock on doors from 3:30 to 8:00. Even managers sometimes go to the field if they don't have enough reps. Even the manager of the entire office can still fail because of no reps or growth. It's all based on growth. The need to con new people as much as they can to build the office to promote out people so the manager can get an override from that new office. Good luck building a team though. As soon as the new people see what it's all about they either quit or stay because they are desperate. The people who succeeded are just really good at getting people brainwashed people to follow them to the end of the earth. Even Hitler had followers... Employees reading this please post your real feeling about your 100% commission Door to door 8-10 sales job. The managers can't alter or remove them and they are anonymous. The manager will come up with some cheeky response to this trying to negate what I say but you are the real voice. If you still want to go to the interview and take the job because they give one to literally anyone and will make you feel like you earned it, then good luck. You're going to have a long life.
