Most will have a level line that requires some practice to master. Most of the rods are soft and you have to really slow down your cast and make a definite stop of the back and fwd cast. In most cases the rod is not loading, this is where a heavier line might help. Another problem I find with a lot of package rods is the spine is not where it should be. It may be off anywhere from 15 to 90 degrees. It is hard to tell you what the problem is without casting the setup you have. Not to hurt your feelings, you may not be casting that type of rod correctly. Try a heavier line, if that works, your problem is fixed.
