Bravo Home Entertainment

I responded to a job posting for "DEI Marketing", only to discover that they are in fact a shell company of Bravo Home Entertainment. I guess too many people complained about Bravo, so they came up with a new name for themselves, and even let their old domain expire (see their website, which is currently a "parked domain" message.

When I realized that they were a scam, I informed the "HR" person who contacted me that I was no longer interested in the position, and requested they not contact me again.

They disregarded my request and continued to harass me via phone and e-mail. Next time I will be more careful about where I send my resume!

Bravo Home Entertainment is now D.E.I Marketing...watch out. It says something about a company that has to change it's name because the owner dragged the last one's name through the mud.

LOL! Go back to college Will. Rude and extremely entitled. Makes promises that he does not intend on keeping.

Burger Thursdays at the Callaboose Grill? Yeah fat chance, unless you're Will's wallet or you've made him a lot of money that week, there's a slim chance that you'll be dining with him ever. Just steer clear people. Oh and it's definitely a pyramid scheme.

Just look up what a pyramid scheme is and then copy and paste it over "D.E.I Marketing" structure. You're better off working for MacDonalds where you at least work the hours you are promised and not sent home because you didn't sell a burger. Oh and cut the cord.

DirecTV is a sham. Just get Netflix lol

Don't even think about applying here. Unless you want:

-Long hours standing in one spot selling something that nobody wants

-lots of mileage on your car and no reimbursement (unless you car pool up to a certain amount of days)

-low pay (unless you're making impossible sales quotas)

-lots of suspension for low sales

-demoralizing and sexist owner

-Hiring drugs addicts just to keep the numbers high

-Borderline pyramid scheme. You're making money for everyone above you

There are much better places to work. ***...apply to Walmart or SAMs Club where you'll be standing all day and you'll get treated much better than at Bravo Home Entertainment by Will.

Bravo Home Entertainment is currently spewing out droves of job postings for multiple positions involving "sales" and "customer service' oriented positions. I've worked for a similar "company" under the same management, and I thought I should warn people looking for information about this relatively unknown company. They are now located in Owego, NY, but have previously been in CT and OH as far as I'm concerned. They mislead applicants into selling DirecTV at stores such as Wal-Mart, Sam's Club, Costco, Best Buy, etc. Employees come and go at a pretty ferocious pace. In my short stay there, I've witnessed other sales reps mislead potential customers into buying DirecTV packages. For instance, you are encouraged to sign up potentials for more expensive packages to get commission. I even saw one rep brainwash an elderly gentleman!

There is no salary, competitive pay, or benefits, like promised. If you fail to sell, (very likely) you will see claw backs take back the minimum wage that you expected. There is no overtime pay, you are expected to work overtime, you use up mileage traveling between stores, and have to attend pointless meetings.

This is a multi-level marketing company. Its basically a pyramid scheme, except that it is barely legal. Top management benefits from the grunts (applicants), then hires more when they inevitably quit.

There are numerous other companies like this working under Smart Circle. (Google Selling DirecTV in Stores) The point of this post is to advise and warn you that Bravo Home Entertainment is far from what they advertise as. I advise you to do some research, and make a decision from there. I myself have made hundreds less than what I expected for, thanks to a misleading job post by the same management.

I worked here for a week.Didn't take me long to figure out it was a scam.

Endless hours driving to and fro, 8 hours six days a week, sent home the first two days after 2 hours because my background check was progressing slowly, a cult mentality, I was lied to about the pay, and I did witness the "owner" intentionally mislead a customer to get a sale. This was an elderly customers, in which he said that his current provider will not charge cancellation fees. (which is completely wrong) It's nothing but a scam. A very few will make it and earn a decent living. That is a small minority. If you get promoted, you will see no bump in pay, but will have to mentor others.

I will not comment here on what type of person it takes to make it with this company...but I wouldn't trust them around my kids.

The owner of this company is as ethical as Madoff. This guy will do ANYTHING to make a dollar at your expense.

Unfortunately, I have witnessed many people come and go in my short month stay here. We were always pressured to sell DirecTV, and would be fired if that didn't happen. I made an average of $225 a week, even though I sold bout 1.5 a week. I signed a contract to make at least minimum wage...

There are ads all over indeed.com or careerbuilder.com, and none of them mention that you standing one place selling DirecTV in the middle of a chain store. The owner misleads people to do his dirty work, so it shouldn't be surprising that he makes promises he can't keep.

I have worked for Bravo for a little over a month, and I can honestly say that I absolutely love it! It is not just a job, but a career move!

There is so much room for growth! PLUS it is all base on your performance and attitude. The people a full of life and excited to go to work. I have worked multiple job and have always found myself looking for an excuse to get out of it!

I have never woke up and not wanted to go to work! I absolutely love everything that Bravo represents.

Which is team work, accountability, drive, commitment, fun, energetic, young! Could not be happier to be apart of the Bravo team!!!

I have worked here for 2 weeks, and I am in love with the company atmosphere. Bravo is a marketing company that trains and encourages employees to reach for professional goals and offers one-on-one mentorship to individuals looking to build a long term career in management.

There are definitely some positive vibes and tons of energy around the office. Glad to have found a good job at last!

Here is the thing about this company.

You have to work your way up through training to make it to the top levels of management, but no one gets to the top without paying their dues. The difference between this company and others is Bravo's support system for the employees who make the team what it is.
