Direct Marketing Pyramid

Pros

It is a great way to learn business, selling, and management techniques. The potential for growth is excellent and those that stick with it can do well.

Cons

The work/life balance is no balance at all. On their official sheet, the day ends at 5:30 but it typically lasts a lot longer than that. They are not upfront with their structure and hours. Expect to work 60 hours a week with little compensation. Their market is dwindling and conflicts with other offices. Mileage is not reimbursed.

Hi Reviewer! Thanks for your feedback. We're not a "direct marketing pyramid" since that's an illegal business practice. We're upfront about our performance based- compensation and advancement structure- perhaps that's what you perceived as judgmental. We don't agree that its a company's job to provide "work/life" balance for employees, since employees choose how their time is spent outside of the office. We hope you were able to find something that was a better fit.

Pros

Teaches you how to sell...The company encourages public speaking and lets you interview and train employees that come in after you. If you enjoy every Wednesday night being team night and hanging out with your employees all evening you might like this job. It is like being in high school again. Lots of drama and the person leading your group will want you to have another team night for the people in your "sales team".

Cons

Get ready for b2b sales, paying for your own gas, walking all day in the hot sun, and your bonuses not showing up on your check due to the office not hitting the rentention numbers.
