Pros

deVere gives an opportunity to anyone willing to work hard, apply what they are being told and are genuinely hungry for more. I spent a year in their offices and every morning going to work was exiting because of the challenging environment and great work place atmosphere. The CEO is approachable and attentive. There are so many rewards for positive results, so much so that your potential earning power fades in the background (although extremely large).

Cons

One day you will feel like nothing is too hard and nobody can stop you. The next can be the complete opposite. This is where most people loose faith in their abilities and leave. It is those who push through who will see the light and be successful. This is the difficult part and is just the way things are done. Colleagues and superiors will all tell you the same thing when you are down, it is hard to believe them at that point and motivation can reach new lows. Devere doesn't have the time or the patience for demotivated workers. Don't rely on a salary, there is an option but it takes a long time to come through and battling with your superiors is not what you need when you start. Walk in the door with enough savings to keep you going on the bare minimum for at least 2 months because in the beginning it can be very hard to earn any money at all.

Pros

There is potential to earn large commissions

Cons

only commission based, but more importantly no support when in role, this was certainly the case in the Moscow office. I saw many many people come to Moscow to follow a dream, only to receive no support when going to see clients and failing, leaving Moscow having spent their savings. No a great way to treat any employees, but the deVere mentality is simple, they didn't make it because they didn't work hard enough - maybe this always the case!

Pros

-Great earning potential if you put effort in - All a numbers game. -Work environment is extremely friendly. -Introduction training is very in-depth and informative. -Managers are always willing to assist with prep all the way through to the presentation.

Cons

-Commission only position. -Commission payouts can take up to 4 months - Very irregular. It can become a headache to fight with deVere payments department to get your commission. -Commission earning talked about in the interviews are not realistic in the first year. -Do not see promotions within the company due to managers being there from the beginning.
