Growth Opportunity - Corporate Trainer Mass Vision Employee Review

I have found my time at Mass Visions to be very rewarding, due to fully embracing my situation and putting in a lot of hard work. The managerial training program has taught me so much about myself and dealing with other people, and has allowed me to further develop skills such as interviewing, public speaking, and team management. Mass Visions values both personal and professional development of their employees, but the you have to be willing to actually receive the coaching. I understand the perspective of some of the more negative reviews, the program isn’t for everyone, which is ok. However, don’t let someone else’s view of the company deter you from the potential opportunity you have at Mass Visions.

Management puts a lot of responsibility on employees, which can be stressful, but with proper time management everything is manageable.

Here's the thing about this place- it looks good on paper and the job descriptions seem promising. If you are into sales, maybe this is the place for you.

But the sad truth is this company is a multilevel marketing scheme whose goal is to recruit people in order to "increase customer service and retention" for other companies. Their website is extremely vague and they always have tons of varied openings posted on job sites despite really only offering sales jobs. If you confront them about this, they will say it's an accident and that they will fix it. They seem to try to lure young people who don't have a lot of marketing experience with attractive job descriptions and promises of customizing a role for your skill level. This is especially troubling because there has been an influx of these types of companies in recent years, capitalizing on recent college grads hit hard by the recession. In reality, these places offer commissioned-based sales roles that involve recruiting others into the company to meet quotas. Their big selling point is that by doing this you will gain enough experience to manage people below you. Having your own office seemed to be the only perk of this, however. Apparently, this company has a history of changing its name. And I wouldn't be surprised if the reason the office looked so shabby was because they were constantly picking up and moving to start over. Everything looked second-hand and sparse. There were questionable "awards" on a bookshelf and the office is almost completely empty (something I have seen before; a telling sign for pyramid selling).
