Pros

You'll definitely grow a lot mentally because this job is more mental work than anything. You get what you put in and everyone is very encouraging and willing to help and answer any of your questions. Also, the pitch they teach you has good structure along with the law of averages they tell you to go by.

Cons

As a distributor, you are doing door to door sales, working outside from 2 to 8, on commission. Even if you get promoted to leadership, you're still on the field and can't progress until you get people on your team that are as good as you but most people quit so you're stuck so however long that takes. Your first paycheck is in 3 weeks and it's only commission so if you had a bad week, you wont get paid. The hours are also very long (in the office at 11 am, lunch from 1 to 2 pm, outside from 2 to 8 pm and back at the office at 9 to 9:30/10). I also didn't like that they made it seem like the people who quit are losers working for someone else the rest of their lives and not happy. Some people are happy with that life and that's okay. Stability is important to most people.

Our team is glad that you were able to take away some teaching tools away from your life during your time with us. However, our team is not performing door-to-door sales and our compensation plan is not strictly commission. We offer a base salary plus performance-based commission as an incentive to push yourself. The Synergy Management career path was laid out for you during your interview process, and we explained that this position took a lot of hard work and dedication. Our team would never refer to anyone as a “loser” and encourage everyone to work in a field that makes them happy. No one on this team “brainwashes” anyone into believing anything. Success takes time, and our leaders explained that in order to get the most out of this opportunity it would take about 6-12 months. We know that the path to success is different for everyone and that a career with Synergy Management is not the normal cookie cutter position. If you have any questions, please contact our HR team at hr.francescai@gmail.com.

Pros

Absolutely NO pros at all.

Cons

I wish I can give this place -0 stars if I could. Very unprofessional working environment. The pay Is commission only and the hours are horrible. You literally have no social life outside. I had to be there by 10:30 in the morning, head out to the field by 3 and reach back at the office after 8 or 9PM at night…. And please don’t get me started on management. Worst job I have ever worked and I wouldn’t recommend working here to anyone not even my worst enemy. Find a sales job where it at least comes with a base salary to support you and flexible hours! 👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽

Account Manager Review

Pros

Good professional experience for interns or college students looking for experience. in sales.

Cons

Multi level marketing, straight commission, no benefits even for DOO's and lengthy phone calls and hours that "is not for all people" which translates to people who are willing to give an arm and leg for little pay and recognition, also extremely high turnover as they do not tell you the day to day in the interview or what to expect.

Thank you for leaving a review with us. We are not pleased to see you did not have a good experience with our company as we pride ourselves with being transparent and honest with not only interviews but also employees. I would like to address your concern of Synergy Management being a pyramid scheme/multi level marketing scheme, though. We have been in business for almost 10 years now and we are in no way a pyramid scheme, otherwise, we would have been running an illegal operation and would have been closed down/sued. You may be confusing that with direct marketing and sales. We do not allow nor accept payments for an employee to get hired or be on boarded into our company. We also do not compensate employees for recruiting others to build a team around them or recruiting others into our company. We have a Human Resource team responsible for hiring the talent we have apply with us online. An account management position with us is solely independent sales agents who have an opportunity to be moved into a Branch Management role and allows us to provide growth in the position. We also want to recognize your comment about little pay and little recognition. An account manager has the opportunity to make $250+ per account generated as well as plenty of recognition on Fridays when we do shout outs to the employees who are going the extra mile to excel in the company along with a myriad of perks and prizes. We do not ask of an arm and a leg, we are like any other company and recognize employees who do go above and beyond not only for themselves but for their trainees around them. We also pride ourselves on bonuses given out every week, hourly training, and monthly incentives, again to recognize the hard work our employees dedicate to Synergy. We also wanted to address the interview process. We take about an hour-an hour and a half to sit down with someone interested in sales/account management (the position you applied for online) to go over each aspect of our business and day to day operations. We also cover pay, benefits, quarterly travel opportunities, growth, as well as getting to know someone on a personal and professional level before we on board them to our team. We also go over any potential negatives you would have to face also being in a customer service position as it is not a field everyone is meant for or is comfortable working with. Our job at Synergy is to provide an incredible experience for all our customers, clients, candidates, employees, partners, and anyone else we have affiliation with. Again, we are sorry to see you did not have a good experience with us and we wish you the best of luck in your future opportunity
