Pros

Working there was really cool to a certain extent. You get to meet awesome people that are all within the same age group. The positive environment can sometimes come off superficial but it’s all a mindset thing and once you accept it then you’re good to go! I wanted to push myself during my time there because I wanted to step outside of my comfort zone and gain experience from the company and to a point I did become more comfortable talking to people. Another good thing is that all of the management team wants you to be where they are and because of that they put a heavy emphasis on you getting there.

Cons

Because they put such a heavy emphasis on getting to management, it can be a hidden pressure that builds especially if you’re not making any sales. People come and go every week and it can be nerve wrecking wondering if you’re going to lose your job next. I was let go because of poor communication on my end and theirs. My “corporate trainer” didn’t inform me about how my performance wasn’t up to par. I ended up losing my job because they told me I didn’t have to come to the morning meeting on my day off which ended up being my “last strike”. Now I’m left without a job because they didn’t communicate with me or give me any verbal warning. This job is all about sales with a little bit of an emphasis on your relationship with the office. They try to emphasize and manipulate you into thinking it’s not about sales during their morning meetings but if you’re not making any sales then you’re gone.

Dear Sir or Madam, Thank you for your review. First and foremost, we would like to say how happy we are to hear you enjoyed the positive environment and team of people here at Acquire. We are also glad that you seem to have taken away several positive aspects from your time working with our company. However, we sincerely apologize for the poor communication on our end. While our business structure is a simple one, there is still a considerable amount of moving parts, as in any business, which can leave room for loopholes. In your case, that loophole was the right information getting to the right people. Sometimes there are too many hands on deck, which can leave room for miscommunication or unfortunately, none at all. Your feedback has been discussed with our Directors, who are working with our training team on implementing a system that will streamline our means of communication to minimize and hopefully eliminate instances such as yours from occurring in the future. Though unfortunate, your situation is a great training and learning opportunity for us all to be thorough communicators. Thanks to your feedback and the way in which these concerns have been addressed with our team members, we feel as though we are making moves in the right direction. Although you are no longer with us, we hope you’re able to take some of the positive skills you learned at Acquire throughout your future career. Again, thank you for your review and we wish you the very best. Kind Regards, Acquire Human Resources Dept.

Pros

The team outings are fun, but that is literally the only pro.

Cons

They lie about what you're doing (selling phones in a Costco or Sam's), berate you, and lie about the hours.
