Advantage solutions is a wonderful job. Customers love testing and watching demos of the samples, and hours are great and flexible .
I like the job it's help I love cooking and making food but the fact that you never get hours makes it hard to love. You have to be 100% self sufficient even if you have problems you have to take care of them mostly by your self the boss never comes up to see what's going on maybe 3 times a year. It's just you and your Co workers if you have any. The idea of the job is fun but the reality isn't as much.
Meeting new people. Making friends with customers.
What helped me land the job was abilities to multi-task, work efficiently, adapt quickly, skill sets, and Time Management.
Being able to work an associate with all the customers and the people that are in the store
Pick a different company. One that cares about the people not just their bottom line.
Working with great people. The company itself lacks care or concern for their employees.
When I first started working here, the Company gave the Event Specialist all the latitude that you needed in order to get the job done and at the end of the day, the sales were through the roof. That is why this company became so successful so quickly. Here we are 7 years later, I am the Club Supervisor, and they have managed to swing the pendulum 180 degrees, whereby , everything that you do in the club is Micro-Managed, right down to taking pictures of each and every event in real time everyday!!! So, needless to say, the sales are in the toilet, the moral is the handle on the toilet, which is stuck in the down position, and what has to get flushed is the management itself on the Corporate Level.They have systematically sabotaged just about every operation we have!!! We need to get back to what made this Company great!!!!: SALES, SALES, AND MORE SALES. NOT MICRO-MANAGEMENT.
The position involved to much traveling and traveling reimbursement did not compensate the traveling expenses. My Supervisor was on a medical leave, therefore my team had a subsitute supervisor from Michigan, who was an unfair individual.
