Pluspunten

Room for growth quickly and theres a young crowd. It is good for the people who get in early and open up a store even though it seemed the company moved in the other week.

Minpunten

Unprofessional culture and It is a marketing scam: It's door-to-door sales for "3 weeks" (probably more like 3 months). it's 100% commission so you're getting paid less than/close to the minimum wage without even knowing. Benefits is not even in the picture. there is no security with the company so if that doesn't bother you, I'm sure you can find a place with Agon. Overall, it is a SCAM. there are plenty of other companies just like this one. Look it up, they are called Multi-Level Marketing firms, or MLM. Its a pyramid scheme. Educate yourself before wasting your time

Hi there and thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. I'm sorry to hear that your overall experience wasn't a positive one, as that is always my goal for each member of our team, no matter how long he/she is with us. Regarding your characterization of my company being a scam, as the owner of this company, I respectfully have to offer up the facts. We are not a MLM or a pyramid scheme, as you suggest. In such a business, participants would be required to purchase a product and would be required to recruit individuals to make more money. They would also make money off of the individuals they recruited. I need to state officially for the record that neither are practices that my business engages in. We are proud to represent the largest energy retailer in the United States, and I can assure you that a corporation of their magnitude would have zero tolerance for illegal or shady business practices. Most importantly, I believe in integrity and honesty above ALL ELSE, so the type of business practices you describe would be against my character. I would be extremely interested in speaking with you over the phone or over coffee. If there are things that you believe that we can improve upon, I am always open-minded about ways that I can improve my business. I would welcome a phone call from you (you can reach me at (703) 821-2842) and I hope that I can do my part in mending this bridge with you. Best regards, Tarek people. 3/30 I’m still waiting for you to reach out . I don’t believe you ever worked for my company . Just to give you some knowledge If you'd like PROOF that we aren't a pyramid scheme, let's start here - with a definition. Pyramid schemes—also referred to as franchise fraud or chain referral schemes—are marketing and investment frauds in which an individual is offered a distributorship or franchise to market a particular product. The real profit is earned, not by the sale of the product, but by the sale of new distributorships. We have never, in almost 6 years, asked a single person to invest money into our company. It's the other way around - we invest in our people. Come forward and I’ll compensate you for your time. My number is 5712139009. Don’t be scared to come forward.

Pluspunten

1. A people-oriented workplace culture; 2. A huge shout-out to Okan. He is one of the best co-workers that I've ever had the honor to collaborate with: Generous, kind, full of empathy, and emotional availability. 3. Folks here DO care about your personal growth and career goal and even point your direction for you. 4. Left due to a skillset mismatch. 5. Please do keep in mind that the company is still a great place to work, especially if you meet the following categories: a. you are a people person; b. comfortable in striking up a conversation with strangers; c. Find it easy to tune in and connect with everyday folks personally and emotionally.

Minpunten

"Sales person" personality required for this role

It was fun, talking and meeting with that person and talking to new people all day

Minpunten

I think that the management kind of pushy on just staying focused to the company and they really want you to dwell deep on the company
