Pros

Everyone is young, outgoing, fun-ish

Cons

This is the most bizarre place I have ever been apart of. Pay is $7.50/hr unless you sell gobs of whatever cheesy product they are making you push... And best senario you're going to make $10/hr. You're going to be in a Costco or Sam's Club for 10 hours a day by yourself pushing some product that is a crock. They'll tell you in the interview process that you'll work "some weekends" -- read that as EVERY weekend. Most insane hours. You're lucky if you work less than 50 hours per week. Everyone there has had the kool aid and thinks they're going to be millionaires in 5 years. Bizarre. Stay away.

Pros

Everyone is EXTREMELY welcoming, helpful, and nice! The interview process really gives you a decent look at the ENTRY LEVEL position. (Don't let all the different fancy job titles fool you....everyone starts at the bottom, doing the exact same job.)

Cons

Pretty much everything is a negative. It's a $7.50/hour unless your commission pay is high enough, but the commission percentages are only beneficial for the manager and top leaders. They expect a ton of extra work (conference calls, shift break downs, etc.) off the clock and during "non-business" hours. I'm sorry but calling me at 9:00pm is not professional. It sounds great in theory, but when you really look into and read all the fine print, it's nothing like how they make it sound. They pride themselves on not being "salespeople" and how they are promoters so it doesn't matter if they customers buy or not...but in reality, if the customers don't buy, you will starve to death. Not to mention the pitches are very pushy and somewhat unethical. It has just been a very poor experience for me. I'm sure some people will love it. Just make sure you really go over the details before getting started so you aren't taken off guard like I was.
