Employee Review of Dial America Marketing - Check out more reviews of working at Dial America Marketing

I worked at Dial America in Greenville for quite some time on and off. It was a great place to work when things were slow with my full time job and helped give me extra cash. I was saddened to hear that the office closed down. I was told by previous co-workers that they said it was because of the economy. I read a few of the comments that were left on here a while back, I guess it was right after they closed. Some seemed to be pretty harsh and it was probably just because they lost their job. One little thing could have been blown out of porportion and then people feed off others with their comments out of anger. Work was booming at times and they asked people to work extra and then at times it was a little slow, but if you were doing well you were able to stay and work and others were sent home early. Made sense to me. I find it hard to believe that anyone can come on here and say just about anything about any job. Must be those that were not doing well. I want people to know that it was a good place to work. The managers were very helpful and accomodated my schedule. I worked mostly at night but occasionally came in the morning. Different atmospheres, different magazines to call for and people you talk to, but with sales you learn to adjust. I did my job and tried not to worry about other things while at work. I did pretty well on my own, but if I needed help I could ask any of the managers. The branch manager was friendly to me and others and spent a good deal of time with people that were on the phones. I enjoyed my time(s) there. I am thankful I still have my full time job but would not think to bash a place that helped me keep food on the table and a roof over my head. People are not perfect and no job is perfect. If you do not like a job either find something else or suck it up. I just want to say that I know times are hard now with the economy and I am sure it was not any one persons fault. People just want someone(s) to blame. I guess that is why they call this Job "Vent". Well this post is a Job "Praise". If I ever have the opportunity to work for Dial America again I would definitely do it. I wish everyone that worked there the best of luck.
