Pros
Great working environment. Staff well driven and ambitious, lots of opportunities for personal and professional development. When I went for my interview the process was well explained and thought out. My interviewer had a good handle and understanding of the position I was applying for and how that relates to the bigger picture of the company.
Cons
Unfortunately I could not commit due to university and family commitments however would like to work for them in the future.
Pros
The only good thing about the company is that as you are technically self employed, you can quit straight away.
Cons
This company operates on purely commission pay of staff. They make this legal by making employees technically self employed. Thus if you don't make a sale, do you don't get paid. They advertise marketing jobs and quick progression into management. In reality everyone starts as a street sales person, trying to pitch to passing foot traffic. Progression is slow and difficult. The hour are long, 8AM-7PM is standard and people hoping to progress work more to be noticed. However, you only get paid when you make sales, which is only when you are in the field. As you are required to be in the office in the morning for 2 hours (approx.) and also an hour at the end of the day, you effectively donate this time, with no hope of being paid for it. Staff take a cut of the wages of those they recruit - hence the pyramid scheme. When you recruit enough people you progress to the next tier, and so on and so fourth. They pitch the job to potential employees as they do products to customers, using sales techniques. For instance they make interviewees feel like they are getting special treatment, by telling them 'inside information' about what they should say to the managers during it. Of course, all interviewees are given the same information, but it creates the feeling that each interviewee is getting special access. All of this creates an atmosphere of distrust, as you can never be sure why some one is saying something, and if they have a hidden agenda. If you are considering applying, don't. You will regret the time you waste there.
Pros
I worked at Precision Acquisitions Direct during the summer of 2016 before going to university and it was so helpful looking back at it! The things I learnt and the coaching that was given to me has really come into full use! The fact that it was really fast paced and team orientated has helped me be more confident in that kind of environment, meeting different people and working with different people. I'm not the fastest of learners but the team we're really patient with me and having that one to one coaching really did help. Within my first few weeks of working there, I saw someone get promoted and having seen that did help me stay focused on a target and goal even if I was there for a short period of time. The team nights were pretty cool too, sometimes we'd go bowling etc so as well as being a professional environment it was also very exciting to be in the company.
Cons
The only thing is that because it's a lively bunch, when I first started it seemed strange everyone being loud and excited but I soon got used to it and involved with all the noise
