Merchandiser (Former Employee), varied – March 13, 2013
Pros: pay was ok

They focus on cosmetic resets, not something I have much knowledge about. Their website is difficult to work with and the jobs are to infrequent.

Not a good company to work for
Merchandiser (Former Employee), Fort Wayne, IN – January 28, 2013
There is a reason this company's turn over rate is so high. they put people in charge that do not know what they are doing. Not worth the pay.

This company was and is indeed a great company to work for however the management needs to have more training on how to manage.
RSC Department (Former Employee), Hanover, MD – January 15, 2013
Pros: the shift time
Cons: the name calling and discontentment.
A typical day for me at Convergence started at 7 am and ended at 3:30 p.m. The work was easy and the drive was not to far. What i learned from convergence is to speak up allow my voice to be heard and not to back down.

Waste of time
Merchandiser (Former Employee), Philadelphia – January 12, 2013
Pros: na
Cons: na
I'll keep it simple :

-Bad management
-Area management don't return calls or emails
-Poor inter-office communication
-Spent time filing,and filling and faxing paperwork only to hardly get work for the "jobs " they claim to have. Thus, wasting $$ I didn't Recoup

This company should just h ire independent contractors only. At least I could write off – more... all the expense of dealing with you.

Oh, and the bounced pay check!! – less

Has taught me a large amount of patience
Site Manager (Former Employee), Hanover, MD – January 5, 2013
Pros: paid vacations
Cons: multiple locations, and unorganized management
I really like that you get to meet all different kinds of people and work with the district managers.

A typical day for me at work would be working closely with an ICM at the location to get everyone involved in POGs and item placement.

The hardest part of my job was making every employee happy. We strived for team work and some people just wanted – more... to work alone. Were I worked on accommodating that to the best of my ability there is only so much you can do.

The most enjoyable part of my job is that I was always learning something new. – less

you spend a lot of money printing off paperwork for the jobs and reporting.
team lead reset merchandiser (Current Employee), Lewiston, Idaho area – October 24, 2012
Pros: none really
Cons: low wage not paid for time at home filing reports and training.
Seemed like a great place to work, then the pay kept changing, they sent emails or called that I had been assigned work only to find out I had no work listed on my dashboard. When I finally got ahold of someone they said it was assigned to someone else or another company ended up with it. I am still employed (3 yrs) but have had no work since March – more... (I have an excellent work rating). Now I see they are looking to hire, why when they already have employees that are not working? – less

Good Experience I learned.
Merchandiser (Former Employee), New York, NY – September 15, 2012
Pros: the money was there and it is fun.
Cons: it was only four months at a time then you are free till four months later.
A typical day at this company consisted of meeting with the team and team leader to get our panagrams and start taking down the merchandise that we will replace with the new products that were shipped to the store. I learned how to merchandise inventory in stores which is something new that I have learned throughout my years. Never met with management – more... since they are located in Hanover, Maryland. The co-workers were hard workers and I just went to do my work. The hardest part of this job was the hours I worked. Sometimes I worked 50 hours a week, or 80 hours. The pay was good and I enjoyed what I did. I loved the fact that everyday was a new store to merchandise and met some wonderful people. – less

Different
Merchandiser (Former Employee), Cincinnati, OH – July 24, 2012
Pros: pay rate, easy
Cons: confusing, no training
It was different working here, I had never been apart of something like this. It was very confusing at first, and honestly scared me away. But it is usually easy money, depending on if you get jobs and how far away they are.
