I agree with those that say MLM is a bad deal for most people. It's "endless chain" compensation and recruiting. MLMs typically telemarket all hours of the day, weekends, holidays, and are taught to prospect and recruit 24/7. Your friends will avoid you if you bring this shiite up to them.

They teach people that your friends are losers if they don't join. People get obsessed because of the groupthink training sessions where they get your endorphins firing. 90%+ lose money in MLMs. Products are usually mediocre and better and cheaper elsewhere. Markets are often already saturated with people who have been harassed by MLM telemarketers. You work harder for longer hours, weekends and holidays included, but you don't get paid for that work, you only get paid to make a sale. You might work for a week just to get one sale, then you get a very tiny cheque because 6 or more people and the company also have to get paid from that sale. MLM is a really bad business model, but they lobby government and make donations to politicians so they can influence the laws in the country.

A lot of off-the-street types who are down-and-out join, but just lose more.

Check with www.the-cma.org to see if they are registered and abide by the CMA rules for marketing. If they are, you can file a complaint. If not listed, ask yourself why?

This is so funny. I too recieved a call from Tal Grossman,from that number, about a job as a "team leader". Although I have no doubt that I would be great with people, I felt that it was odd the V.P of Primerica was doing the hiring. My interview was a couple of days ago, I didn't go because of some negative instinctual feelings, and I get a message on my answering machine saying how I missed a great opportunity, and that he has influences in the gta job market, and he might have to put a bad word out! Who does this? So completely unprofessional;to match my disregard for responsibility with your own disregard of professionalism!
I am so glad that I found this forum. To the people that have found good jobs with this company:good for you. To everyone else: If it looks like a duck....
You can't all be wrong, can you?!

This is the best thing I've ever done in my life.  First of all, never let things you read on the internet effect your choices or decisions - get the info first hand, secondly - Michael's web direction is good - but when I researches the company in the library, I came across a book called "The ABC's of Making Money"  This book is an international best seller and talks about how strong this company truly is.  I'm part of a great team that has people who truly care.  Good luck to all those fortunate enough to get a call for a chance!!

I was accosted at the local Wal-Mart today by a two-person Primerica team. While my immediate assumption was that they were husband and wife, I quickly picked up on the fact that they were more likely a mentor/mentoree team instead. I wasn?t so much offended by their cheesy tactics as I was baffled by them.How many people are actually so gullible as to think a successful insurance salesman or money manager goes to the local Wal-Mart to drum up a sales team? If these Primerica shills were as successful as I would think they?d hope to be in a similar business, they wouldn?t have to step foot in a Wal-Mart to interview prospective employees. These people aren?t selling financial products so much as they?re selling themselves.Sadly, neither of these two jamokes grasped the first step of making a successful sale which is to divorce oneself from the desire for the outcome. From moment one they reeked of trying to delve into my pocket and social network at any cost.No thanks.When you sell yourself to family and friends, you do just that. If you get them to buy, you have perhaps put a few quick dollars in your pocket, but in so doing you traded integrity that you once had with the people who trusted you most. This same integrity, mind you, is integrity that you cannot easily buy back. Regardless of how big your sphere of influence might be, staying on this path will guarantee that your well will eventually run dry. Granted, those very few select big wigs at the top of the Primerica pyramid (by the way, if you?re reading this then it?s too late to join their ranks) may earn a livng, the newest recruit however will simply soil his reputation to family and friends.Not my bag, Baby, and if you?re smart, it won?t be yours either.
