This is a con. Run. Do not work for this company
IBO (Current Employee) - Maryland - 9 September 2020
Do not work for ACN. This is a scam, mlm, pyramid scheme. You don’t pay money to work at a real job. If you want to be in sales, sell cars, paper, padlocks, dog bowls, scrapple. Do not, I repeat, do not waste your time.
Pros
None
Cons
No income, scam, pyramid, waste of time

Massive Layoffs
QA Lead/Process Lead (Former Employee) - Concord, NC - 7 May 2020
After the founders held an all employee meeting to calm everyone of rumors concerning layoffs they laid off 3 of the 4 floors of corporate offices in Concord. After sitting on the edge of the stage talking to everyone in the room to tell them that they had nothing to worry about and that their jobs were safe ... they began laying off entire departments/floors. They tout that they are Christians and yet openly lie to their employees? I worked for many years there. Many weekends and evening work I was never compensated for out of loyalty to the company. Then they let go massive amounts of their staff. Many of those employees having been with the company 10 or 20 years. Don't get sucked into this MLM like I did.

The Experience is What You Make It
Independent Contractor (Current Employee) - N/A - 4 May 2020
Thus far, as an Independent Business Owner who is independently contracted, I have seen the ups and the downs. I am currently in my fourth month of work on my independent contract and I am going to tell it like it is.
1. Is this line of work perfect? No.
2. Is this line of work comfortable? Not always.
3. Does this line of work require a lot of work? Yes, right now, but it gets easier with training.
4. Is it worth it? Yes, it depends on what YOU put into it.
The Good:
1. As an independent contractor, I can set my own hours.
2. There is a team that I joined under who has shown me phenomenal support and I have received both on the job and classroom like training.
3. I set my goals, steps for meeting my goals, and execute a plan that works for me.
4. I am able to consult with more experienced contractors to get help, advice, and strategy tips.
5. Some days fill you with energy.
The Bad:
1. Sometimes customers are reluctant and it may take a lot of persuasiveness.
2. Sometimes machinery malfunctions.
3. Sometimes you have to tolerate being stretched outside of your comfort zone.
4. Some days are longer than others.
5. Some days drain the life out of you.
Bottom line, what you put in is what you ultimately receive in return. It's not a "get rich quick" or "ideal job" by any means, but it serves its purpose.

amazing company and pays well
Independent Business Owner (Former Employee) - Toronto, ON - 28 April 2020
The partners were very well presented and promote their product very clearly so i can understand how this business pay out commission and how to build a home based business
in this business you get paid on the time you put into your own buainwaa
this business is not about selling its more about meeting and sharing information with business minded people

Deficiente liderazgo y nulo desarrollo profesional
CFO (Former Employee) - Ciudad de MĂ©xico - 7 March 2020
Nada más que decir la verdad la dirección de esta empresa solo está enfocada en una cosa, vender todo lo que sea posible a cualquier costo, incluyendo cero balance de vida/carrera de sus empleados asà como un muy estresante ambiente laboral cero estabilidad y apoyo del corporativo

Feast or famine opportunity
Team Coordinator (Former Employee) - Las Vegas, NV - 1 December 2019

Very confused company
Manager (Former Employee) - Concord, NC - 22 November 2019
I provided well positioned actionable analysis resulting in the ability to to sell product quickly and efficiently with a substantial cost savings that what had been previously available.
This was met with rudeness, professional immaturity and name calling by my manager who frequently bragged about how great they were and how stupid top level management was. This was every day, every issue.
Unless you were their very best friend outside of work and babysat their children and hung out drinking at their house, there was no way to succeed in the environment.
Not good.
