Vanguard Events Reviews

So despite the pros there are some very questionable things going on within that company. First, you have to dress EXTREMELY professional in the office, despite having to sit on the floor. You have to hear A TON of redundant information, such as sitting in on the same meeting 2-3x in the same week, as well as calling suppliers and hearing them describe what you'll be "selling" (They don't think of themselves as sales, but that is what the job boils down to). They will NOT let you interact with other entry levels, which makes no sense because they want you to network, but only with approved higher ups who talk to you in a circle of the same ambiguity. In the field, you will spend several weeks "selling" products at wholesale clubs. They promise you will make commission, which is how you get promoted, but if you don't hit a certain threshold, you will be making roughly $7/hr (the person that will hire you fails to mention the below-min-wage part and will explain how you will be making roughly $800+/mo, which is super misleading as it seems like you will be making a base). It's also very difficult to hit the marks sometimes. There is also the issue of resource calling in the field, which is loosely required but if you fail to do they crack down on you. It seems somewhat unnecessary to be constantly calling people to check in, but if you don't, don't expect to be promoted quickly. The last major red flag was that you are told to stress 'needs' as opposed to 'wants' in the products you're selling. You're not selling anything anyone really needs, but if you don't act like what you're selling is going to help bring about the second coming of Christ, they get mad. It gets a bit overwhelming and the way they do things (as in make you yell stuff in the office, not being allowed to sit on chairs on the clock, if you're seen eating or drinking you get reprimanded, etc...) and it sort of has a cult feeling to it.
