Pros

If you like to apply for a job that doesn't exist.

Cons

*Interviewed Only* **DO NOT WORK HERE** Interviewed: The title, junior brand manager, was a ruse unfortunately. The position did not exist or at least they tricked me into applying for Junior Brand Manager just to get me to be a " Professional Fundraiser" or "Event Manager". All roles of which are NOT marketing roles but sales positions. They marketed this job as a "marketing job" however it was not. During my interview I realized they wanted to fill sales positions for the lower level parts of their company. The company itself is a " marketing company" Which creates events outside of local businesses taking donations for a non-profit called " Stand For the Silent". The gist is: - you are not applying for a marketing job - you are taking donations for this non-profit outside of stores - you get a percentage of those donations as commission. - you also make money for the people above you. - They want you to progress and have people make money for you taking donations as well. When I asked" so are you hiring for the job that I specifically applied for on my application or something else". And the interviewer had explained that I was not. It was rather confusing and disappointing to me. I felt like my time was wasted.

Pros

Potential for high earnings. Employee bonding nights. You can take away good sales tactics.

Cons

This company has been in the Denver area for at least 3 years. They have changed their name since I've worked for them, and I cannot find any information on the company under the name they carried when I was employed there. But the director of operations, Brandon, is the same "CEO" from the company I worked with. They offer jobs to basically anyone, and play it up as an "entry level marketing position", using lots of buzzwords, telling you about all their big clients. They try hard to sell the job to you. They are very vague about what you will actually be doing with the company until you are hired. It is a pyramid scam, and earnings are based almost completely on commission. They place you outside of King Sooper's gas stations to sell mediocre car washing products, or windshield chip repairs. The product they sell may have changed, but it is the same system. You meet at the office early, usually 7am dressed in business professional, do sales training (role playing), then everyone changes into casual clothes, loads up their cars with product, and heads out to the assigned gas station or store for the day. You work sometimes until 8pm before returning to the office with leftover product. While you make all the sales, the director or CEO or whatever new title he has chosen, makes most of the commission from your sales. Another review mentions them changing names and offices, and I would be interested to know what other names they have used. No benefits.
