Pros

The people are nice CEO is ok to get along with Errr not much else really to say to be honest.

Cons

First of all they lie to you when you get to know the company a bit more, such as what you actually do for the role. They call them 'corporate events' but you just stand outside Poundland and try to get people on to charities. There's no base pay, 100% commission. The hours stupidly long, pretty much 12 hour days. Stupid atmosphere and chanting in the morning.

Thank you for your feedback, we appreciate the chance to manage our interview process better. We are pleased that you and our CEO had a pleasant introduction and that you were invited back to attend a second interview and shadow one of our most experienced trainers. We apologise if you feel you were misled in any way regarding the role, we always try and make sure our adverts are clear and we explain the day to day role in detail. We will take a closer look at our job advert to make sure that there is no confusion in the future. Our methods to drive motivation and create encouragement may seem unusual to some, we understand that this kind of vibrant, high-energy environment might not to be to everyone's taste. We are glad that the interview process provided you with a wealth of information to help you make a well-informed decision about your possible future working in the environment you were shown.

Pros

-If you work hard you can earn a great salary and you can quickly progress in the company. This company does not discriminate on age so no matter how young or old, you are able to progress. -I was able to manage a team of 5 people which was new experience for me at the age of 23 and this taught me some valuable lessons. -Great working atmosphere - the company relies on you networking and socialising with many people in the business, making it a very social job and all the people i spent time with were friendly and keen to offer advice.

Cons

-I was required to work on saturdays which was hard at the beginning because i haven't done this until now, but this got easier with time. -Very social job so unless you have had previous experience in this industry, the first few days may feel a little strange, but the people will help you to fit in.

Pros

The environment is fantastic, being at Augumentum Promotions as changed me, I have grown as a businesswoman and as a person. It is one of the greatest opportunities I have ever come across. The people are absolutely amazing and caring. I have become so much stronger​

Cons

I honestly can't think of any. If you don't find this a great opportunity is just because you are not looking at it from the right angle​. If you feel like you're putting in too many hours or not getting paid enough all you have to do is realise that success is sweet but it has a scent of sweat about it. Those who work hard and apply what they have been teached progress fast and furiously, there's no reason to complain.
