I might say, It doesn't surprise me to see some negative comments from people that I guess are not accustomed to working in a fast paced workplace or prefer leisure which is totally cool with me, my gf never understood why I liked this job so much, but the tasks were problem-solving and it got my adrenaline pumping... I would definitely recommend this company, but only if you are strong willed and focused. It definitely prepared me for the challenges of running my own business now.

For all the job seekers, beware of this company. When you apply to any of the jobs they post, they will tell you that "you are in", which means they will give you a "trial project", and if you produce good work for this "trial project", they will sign a contract with you. But this ''trial project" is like a mission impossible, the workload can easily be days (normally they ask you to come up with a business proposal on a given task with all the analysis, numbers and verification), and they require you to do it in no more than 2 hours. After you submit your hard work, they will tell you to wait for their response, and believe me, you will not hear from them unless you keep sending them emails or calling them. And finally, they will tell you that you spent way too much time on your project and there are other applicants doing this better than you, and you contact them too much, and waste too much of their 'precious' time. They will call you names, curse over the phone, and say that you are an annoying and horrible person to work with and they don't see how is that possible to employ you. All in all, this company takes advantage of people searching for jobs and get people to do good work for them for nothing. Their contact speaks and writes horrible English which is super confusing, but given the way they treat their applicants, I am not sure whether they are doing this on purpose, so that they could blame the confusion caused by their poor English on the applicants and justify what they do.

[Updated]
This updated review is in respond to the respond from BRKV made to my earlier review, as the respond sickens me. First things first, anyone who has a legal status to stay in the EU (and apparently I do) are eligible to search for permanent employment in the EU, and any EU employer with a common sense should be asking this job seeker at the beginning if assistance in acquiring a new immigration status is needed (like I said earlier, whether they are misinterpreting such common sense at their advantage is unknown, as the general level of English proficiency in this firm is rather inadequate). At BRKV, I made it very clear at the beginning that I will be needing such assistance if I was to work for them, and they acknowledge the fact and told me "You are in." As per the task, "selling a super car in 2 hours is never impossible" is very convenient to say if the workload involving such task is never revealed. I was asked specifically to come up with the market analysis of 5 different countries on their automobile market as well as calculating all the tax and fees in those different countries, not to mention I was also asked to create ads in 5 different languages featuring that car using all the technicalities I was provided. Yes, I was told to do that for each and every one of those five different countries and I had to very carefully verify my answers, and I was expected to do that "in a few hours", not just 2. Anyone who thinks he/she can finish all that work in 2 hours are welcome to try! Last but not least, like I mentioned that the owner was quite hostile and irrational over the phone (as is also shown in his respond) that after all the work I did, he used the excuse of me not having the legal documents to work in EU to refuse to hire me while he could've said that right at the beginning of the hiring process to save my later effort. To put the whole story in a nutshell: BRKV told me they will assist me in acquiring legal documents to work full time in EU (I already have legal documents to reside and work part time in EU) as long as they decide to hire me, and got me started on their "super easy task", and upon finishing the task, they told me they simply couldn't hire me because I don't have the legal documents to work in EU. See how they change their story here? And how convenient that is?

I WILL NOT CHANGE MY VIEW ABOUT THIS COMPANY, AND I WILL CONTINUE TO URGE EVERY JOB SEEKER TO BEWARE OF THIS COMPANY, IT IS NOT WORTH YOUR EFFORT, DO NOT BOTHER!

The interview was confusing and I was not sure what I was supposed to do for a while. I was given tasks which I could not really understand and I was meant to do them asap, so I kind of felt lost at the beggining. But the employees are beyooonnd nice, I mean they really welcome you in their team, and this job forces you to adapt, learn and implement so even though i was there for really short period (due to getting married & moving to US) I really liked these people and the job was very dynamic and fast paced, similar to my current one in NY. 5 stars

If you are looking for a regular job with a conventional salary and a company Culture, this is not the right place.

They are young people working, probably hard, to keep going make some money in a dynamic way, mainly based on commissions. However, there is a bit of lack of professional protocols, such as having a proper reception, and a process to welcome applicants. You walk in and no one to greet you in a proper way. People working there will tell you to have a seat and wait to be addressed.
In addition, the communication emails, for the interview were very concise, quite vague and a bit tricky. So make sure you are properly explained what the role is about as they will make you come to their office and tell you how the job really works, only when you re there.
If you were to be offered a task , not really a job, it s very likely you will be offered a chance to make sales for them and make money based on commission. So you better be driven and ambitious and have time to invests as you will be the only one responsible to make money for yourself. Despite having read a couple of reviews, o thought about giving up in attending the interview as I was expecting to have a normal job, with agreed salary, payroll and etc. But when I started the interview, the review I had read made sense and I interrupted the interview in Ortega to save my time and their time.

Nevertheless, I think it can be a good opportunity for those who want to try something new and have the freedom to make your own salary, I guess.
I wish them the best of luck and thank them for having me.

The worst experience and place to be. I was called in for a 15 mins interview by Kalena. When I arrived, all I had to do was submit my CV and was told that the HR manager will contact me if I'm suitable. What the f????
If a person is called for an interview the shortlist should have already been done by HR not waste my 1 hour commute time to just hand in my CV! This company should be sued in court for wasting people's time. I have 5 years of professional experience and I have better things to do with my time and money. It was a bloody waste of my time.

PLEASE AVOID this company at all costs!
