Okay so basically I’m 17 and started working for this company. My parents already had thought it was sketchy Bc of all the bad reviews this company has . I completed all my trainings and one thing I hated is how I had to sell $1000-$4000 knives sets to family & friends . That was the dumbest shit I ever heard because who in the hell is gonna pay that much for knives . It honestly just embarrassing enough selling some expensive ass products to family knowing they ain’t gone buy it . And the fact the during training they made u stay there until u booked all your appointments. I ended up quitting Bc it was to much pressure , seemed very strange & a lot of red flags .
hey so i had my first day of training today and it was oc long, he basically took hours to explain basic simple stuff. but i have a question: did they only pay you once you sold 1000k or did you start getting paid right away? also do they make you buy the knives for yourself?
Teresa Awuah okay so basically you would only get “ paid paid “ is if you sold the knives but you get paid $15 for every appointment you do . The knives sets that they will have you showing in the presentation to your family /friends is $1000-$4000 knives set . All the stuff that Is under $1000 they consider those “ free gifts “
I just wanted to say thank you for your video, simply because I know what the job is, therefore I definitely wouldn't be wasting time of my own not the hiring management. I don't call this a scam, however it's definitely not a job that I would ever consider .
I currently work for the company. Do you know anyone I can sell a set too? It is extremely hard to get anyone to purchase anything since prices are so high. I personally think it is terrible how they get mad at you for not selling the products, I had three people that bought individual products that ranged from $40-$60, which I am completely okay with since it still is a sale, but they aren't. If I do not get a sale within this week or next, I think I am going to call it quits but then again I might just wait it out until the products that three customers of mine get it. I have amazing time management, but they expect too much of people who do not consider this job a full time job.
I have training next week and I feel pressured already cuz I need to come up with a list of at least 15-30 adults to do practice appointments with. I'm not sure who I want to talk to other than my parents and perhaps past teachers. The rest of my family doesn't understand English. I am also a bit scared cuz I am finally doing research on the company and there's sooooo many videos about how sketchy the company is and that it's a scam. Any ideas? Edit: I ended up not going to training. From what I’ve seen, in order to get a good flow of income and success in working here, you need to be dedicated and have good time management. I did not see myself as having any of them. In the times we’re in right now, I’m glad I didn’t go because with all the work I have, I don’t want to stress myself with this sort of job even if we weren’t in quarantine.
Katelynn Hernandez so I basically just quit the job . They make you sale $1000-$4000 knives to your family and friends ... and it’s just like if u don’t know Rich people who are willing to pay that much it’s really no point
Im having my first video interview on Wednesday 12-21-22. One question comes to mind. Are you able to set up a meet with Big Box Stores , Walmart , Best Buy etc…. ?
Aye bro I just got a job there and I just completed day 1 of training and since you said you go to CSU and I live in Denver it's likely we are working in the same division so do you still work there? Can you do an update or something?
Keep in mind you have to subtract taxes on this income. In ordered to keep selling you have to keep coming up with friends and family or contacts to sell to. Personally I don’t know that many people who want to buy a $1500 knife set.
You go house to house per app. or yes you can do virtual demos over the phone, the only thing is that client has to have a computer with internet in order to do the appointment over the phone 👍
Isaac is right!! You can do the demos virtually. And over the phone. We can also ship it over seas, but it has to be shipped to you and then to the customer with the valid home address.
Some of y’all need to stop screaming scam. How is it a scam? Do you guys not get the knives? Do the customers not get the knives? No. That’s not the case. Do these reps get paid? Yes. A scam is if you PAY a brand and you don’t receive the product or service. Educate yourselves please.
It’s a scam because they flat out lie about the job description, make you do 15h+ of training for no pay which is illegal in probably most places they operate, and they pressure vulnerable teens and young adults into pitching these over expensive knives that are much cheaper than what they are being sold for to their own family members which they know nobody would buy if it wasn’t their own family pitching it to them. The company itself has even had to pay out multiple settlements for things like fraud.
They think it’s a scam since it isn’t the classic formulaic cashier job most of these lazy fucks who’ve been living off their parents’s bank account for decades have been familiar with💀. Saw a 20 year old stressing about jotting down 15 names and numbers
@@ttangerine485 Ahhh yeah that's crazy. Society is going downhill quick. Yeah, I do this online stuff fulltime. Definitely not a scam, takes time, but it's worth it. Lol.
It's clearly a multi level pyramid scheme. Which is a scam , only those at the top make money from those at the bottom. If those at the bottom even sell they are making hardly anything at all. It's better off to get a minimum wage job . Clearly a scam.
Hey i am thinking about becoming a part of the vector team and i was wondering how does the company have proof that you had these appointments and met up with your customers ?
Funny how people think it's a scam but when you sell you get a damn check right away. Nobody can explain how that happens when it's a scam. People get scared and don't know what a real sales job is about. It you sell, it's fun and they bring you up. If you're down and negative, who the hell wants to hang with that person? They train you cutting edge sales and have a resume setup for you to carry to your next job. They lift you up. Now there are alot of mis management that cross the line because they just think of money. They get greedy but alot of managers have positive managing skills that makes you wanna learn. Just like any other job.

Thank you. I just got hired today and was so excited till i saw all these negative comments. This kinda gives me some hope cause im getting hella worried
A sale job pays more and offers more than vector. In addition you don't have reps who are 85% new why? Because an actual sales job that pays well keeps tenured people. You are also aware in scams people do get paid right? Bernie Madoff gave some of his money he stole from his investors back. Some people do make money in a scam. The reason it's a scam is because MOST people don't make money.
it really is. i dont think people realize that you make more with the way you treat it. If you're dedicated, take good care of the job, and put time and effort into it, it'll show overtime. it's something you have to work your ass off for to get a decent amount of money, but some people should just do this on the side for extra cash rather than a full time career since they don't treat it as one. imo.
Actually it's really not that bad I sat through a demo today it did take about an hour but the woman had a kid but I didn't mind at all I didn't buy anything though it's a little to pricey on my side but I know some people that may would buy and my training starts Thursday
I just got the job yesterday and i have to go in for training next Wednesday, Thursday and Friday but after seeing all these vids bout ppl saying its a scam and giving alot of negative experiences with working there i don't even know if i should go anymore they say its a waste if time.. what should i do??
@@rasheemthebestfirstone3274 you have to call your friends and family. i decided very quickly working for them just wasn’t within my integrity. and that’s my two cents
This is so neat to see how casual the 12 demos completed you've sold 6k in a week! Solid start, hope things are going well for you this fall!

i just got hired today .. this is why im here in ur page ...
How'd it go? I'm trying to learn more about it
are you still working at Vector? can you update?
1000 in 6 days good work bro!
So you mean to tell me in order to get paid you always have to make appointments so you can advertise the product?
I currently work for the company. Do you know anyone I can sell a set too? It is extremely hard to get anyone to purchase anything since prices are so high. I personally think it is terrible how they get mad at you for not selling the products, I had three people that bought individual products that ranged from $40-$60, which I am completely okay with since it still is a sale, but they aren't.

Surprise there's no follow up video 3 years later
How’s it going now? Still good? It sounds shady and I declined an interview
I have training next week and I feel pressured already cuz I need to come up with a list of at least 15-30 adults to do practice appointments with. I'm not sure who I want to talk to other than my parents and perhaps past teachers. The rest of my family doesn't understand English.

Same!!!! Are you still working for them ?! If so how is it going ?
Queen Alert No, sorry. I tapped out before the training because I don’t think I’ll be dedicated enough to work well.
Karen Lau it’s okay , I start training tmr ! Ik people who been working for them for a few weeks and they said it’s East
Queen Alert Hello I have training next week how did it go ?? Is it worth it ??

How do you get appointments w random ppl homie
Door to door 🚪
Ember 4 Ever they don’t do fort to door it’s not allowed
Referrals mostly.
You start with family and friends then it grows through leads. So it’s not telemarketing
Im having my first video interview on Wednesday 12-21-22.

Well fuck I live in the ghetto, everyone i know is broke how am I going to sell these overpriced knives?
I said the same thing lmao
I was thinking the same thing and I just completed 1st day of training but not going back
@@Tati843 i have to go tmr!!😭 i feel like I’m going for nothing

Very good my man, god bless
I start training tomorrow and I’m really nervous! I don’t talk very much or very well. But I’ve gotten better speaking to others
How did that go
@@howtoseries5931 it went really well until I didn’t have any more appointments and was scrambling to find potential clients 😩
How did you sell your sets to your family? My family are a bunch of cheapos.
im also struggling here i need some referrals
Do you'll go house to house per appointment or is it online as well. I dont have a car should I work for them?

Finally an actual video of someone who actually worked there. 😂 Everyone is screaming scam and it gets annoying 😂
Its a scam, mlms are just big money funnels to the top 1 % of the company. You are more likely to make a profit actually gambling than in an mlm.

I worked there in 2015. My mom was my first customer, and she still uses the knives to this day. They truly are amazing knives.

It sounds like a load of donkey shit
I can hear the guilt in his voice
you still with em? give us an update
Do we get paid $26 an hour or by appointment because i thought it by hour :/
He stopped making videos 😂😂😂
guess you're not doing this anymore
Oh and also do they pay you 25 per appointment
Hi do they give you a list of people that you call or you have to find customers on your own ?other than your family.
that’s my question too
@@taylorrubyy what’s the answer?
@@rasheemthebestfirstone3274 you have to call your friends and family. i decided very quickly working for them just wasn’t within my integrity. and that’s my two cents
