MicroTrain Reviews

First and foremost, it’s a company that takes advantage of the unemployed. Don’t let them fool you in the interview; you’ll be telemarketing. It’s an aggressive cold-calling sales culture where the sales team pushes people into training that doesn’t fit them, and screws them out of government money that could have helped them get a job. They make it seem like they’re a community based organization, but it’s all about $$. The CEO has terrible people skills. He’s awkward, rude, egotistical, and paranoid.

To reiterate what has been stated in many reviews, this company titles all recruiters as 'program managers' and you will be cold-calling desperate unemployed individuals that have no background or business getting into IT. You will follow a script that convinces them they will be successful after gaining a certification in an outdated technology (Microtrain doesn't believe in updating curriculum or certificates because that would cost them money) and they will use the federal grant dollars that they can only access one time to attend training. As someone very familiar with the grant that Microtrain exploits, believe me, a very large percentage of individuals that they reach out to have no business attending IT training- but if you get commission, who cares, right?
