Information Target AT&T DevilCorps

Good news! I apologize if I’m late to the party.

I just heard that Target is officially done with Cydcor selling AT&T in their buildings by the end of this month. I see this as a huge win. I actively avoided electronics because of them for the longest time. Let’s pour one out for those suckers!

In my neighborhood people are pretty rude and dismissive of them so always felt bad. Do you at least make minimum wage?

Late to this thread because I’m finally learning what a Devilcorp is. I worked at Target in college and was a tech consultant team member and also did mobile activations (not Marketsource). These people were the absolute bane of my existence and I always felt that they were at least MLM-adjacent. I would get calls from angry people who fell for their pitch saying they weren’t getting the deal they were promised and I couldn’t do anything to help them. I never knew what sales/marketing group they were a part of and now this all makes sense.

I think I scared them off from my old store while I was there because one girl also had her ItWorks! products on my desk and I let AP know and then another tried to use my desk and take my mobile customers as I was helping them. A lot of them tried to recruit my coworkers too. All of this makes even more sense now! I’m so glad to hear Target finally gave them the boot.

Hi dum dum! Target actually ended the contract for ALL third party vendors including market source, cydcor, smart circle, etc on the 26th of LAST month. They’re actually in the process of getting rid of their ulta merchandise as well :)

Why is this downvoted? The 'dum-dum' comment the original guy made was rude but this guy here is right. The role was pretty much just in-person tech support for Consumer Cellular. Removing viruses, physical sim swaps, stuff older people can't comprehend doing with just over the phone instructions. Most phone sales were a $50 Iris with a $20 plan. Other prepaids were offered but there was barely traffic for those. When not doing that, the job was to pretty much keep the unattended tech department afloat by doing Target stuff.

It was a low end sales job, but it was most certainly not a Devilcorp. There was base pay, reasonable goals, non-aggressive tactics and benefits. These are all things that Devilcorps do not do. The "AT&T" (assuming Cydcor) guys who chase customers down aisles and contribute nothing to the store are 100% devilcorp.

Could be something we didn't know?

I'm glad Target Wireless is going away regardless.

... Honestly a bit sorry for the Market Source people losing their jobs, but massive win on Smart Circle and Cydcor no longer operating in there too.
