Pros

Company wants you to succeed

Cons

Will offer you low compensation with promises of monthly opportunities for raises. They’ll then continually push these off and change the requirements and or make them highly subjective to the point where you won’t win. Get everything in your contract or don’t sign it.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. Relationships are at the core of our business and thus we put a great deal of value on not only the relationships with our clients but also the relationships with our consultants. It is for this reason that we are shocked and disappointed to hear that you had such a negative experience. Would you please email us at success@eightelevengroup.com so that we can learn more about this situation?

Pros

This company relies on growth from within, so if they see potential in you, they will help you get to that next level. There is always a huge support system around you at all times.

Cons

The amount of support can quickly turn into micromanaging, and promoting from within is great until you start protecting those who earned their title sheerly through tenure or a 'good ol' boy' system. Also, the pay is abysmal. They pay you the absolute minimum in salary and the rest is based off of commission, so even the best reps can lose everything on a clients whim, going from making almost $200K a year to $30K in the blink of an eye. They say they have protections in place for that but that's only for the people who earn the company millions of dollars for 4 consecutive years. Also, there really is no such time as a work/life balance here. They throw parties to make you think you do, but if you are out on PTO you will still be judged by your KPI's while you were out, and they expect you to pick up the phone, regardless of if you are on vacation or at your grandfathers funeral. "Still gotta keep you numbers up!"
