Pros

- they have a nice office I guess? - the entry level role is a sales position. If you like sales, there might be the potential to make good money.

Cons

- applied for their entry level "marketing," role and was hired quickly. Went through 3 interviews and it took going through a weird three days of training to finally learn the job was selling phone plans in Costco - You have to dress business professional every day and go into the office, just to change into a Costco shirt - Every office meeting started with the CEO just yelling profanities with a "just go do it attitude"

Dear Reviewer, We would like to thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. During our three-part interview process, we explain our company, our clients, the duties of this position, and the career opportunities. In early March, our leadership team implemented a one-on-one meeting as part of the onboarding process. We apologize if you or other individuals were offended by the way the meeting was conducted. We recognize the meeting's purpose was filled with excitement about the future. However, we did not think the language used would be offensive. We do know the preemptive statement about profanity being used may not have been heard. Since this is the first we are hearing about this causing concerns from a previous employee on Glassdoor, we will make sure it is addressed moving forward. While we're always striving to do the right thing, there will always be areas in which we can improve. We hear you and we will consider your feedback as we move forward.

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.
