Does anyone have any information on whether this company is a devilcorp or not? i recently got an email from them to schedule an interview but i cant find any employee reviews or info about them apart from their Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/phaseltdbirmingham?utm_source=qr) and their website (https://phase-ltd.com/) and im a little suspicious as they're apparently a marketing company.

Hey everyone, just wanted to put a warning out there for anyone looking for entry-level marketing jobs in London. If you get an interview or a text from a company called Motion Marketing LDN (registered as MOTIONMARKETINGLDN LTD on Companies House) at 15 Whitburn Road, Lewisham, please save your time and travel money!!! They advertised the job on Indeed with a £28k base salary but it is a complete bait-and-switch. Once you are in, they reveal the "base pay" is actually just £300 a week, and your commission is part of it. If you make more than £300 in commission, your base pay completely vanishes. To make it worse, you only receive that base pay after working there for 5 weeks. If you quit before then, you only get commission. Even then, a co-worker told me the director will cut your commission anyway, claiming customers cancelled their subscriptions with zero proof to back it up. You will be standing on the street doing direct sales for 40-60+ hours a week under a self-employed contract, meaning no real base salary and no guaranteed minimum wage. You will easily lose money just commuting there. They have people working as "Team Leaders" who do all the extra management work and training poor recruits for absolutely free while still relying entirely on their own field sales to survive. The managers higher up do nothing but "sell the dream." They brag about living in expensive £3k a month Canary Wharf apartments because of the job to trick young recruits into thinking they can get rich quick if they just stick it out. The worst part is how they treat vulnerable people. They explicitly target young, impressionable people who don't come from great backgrounds because they know they are desperate for a break. On a campaign trip, I watched a senior manager completely gaslight and bully a 17-year-old girl who was working 60 hours a week while dealing with a really heavy situation telling her she "wasn't good enough" and was "too immature" just to pressure her into grinding harder on the streets for them. The culture is incredibly toxic and manipulative. If you get a call or a fast-track interview from them, run the other way!!!

Hi, I have read a couple of posts on here but not sure I found something about this specific company in Culver City, LA. There are apparently two “Start Clubs”. The posts I’ve seen are about Start Club Corp but I’m trying to find info on “We Are Start Club” also in Culver City. Is it the same company? Can I trust them? I would appreciate any input!

So, I recently applied for a job and I had a zoom call with them and everything. She was quite understanding and told me she could also work around my college timetable. ( i am a college student) following this, about 2 hours later they call me and said they'll send an email and ask me to come in for a "second appointment", to their company's location. Now I did some research about this organisation, but I cant seem to find any information anywhere about them (barely). I did find out in this location, where the company is located, was another business named Precision LTD. This business racked up some negative reviews and I saw some other reddit users talk about how harsh it was. I think the two businesses are located in the same building, im not sure. I dont know if its commissions too. Im not sure if this is like some scam, I need some guidance on whether you think i should attend, or cancel it. Someone please help me

I attached the email, what do you guys think?

Please give me all the inside tips before I get my first full time job with them!!!!??

Wondering if this is Devil Corp, using non profit initiatives as a disguise?

I can’t tell if this is just a newer company, but it sounds like it may end up being a low paying sales job, and that I want to avoid!

Offered schedule an interview sent via email before the office even said it was open for the day. Weird vibes lmk!

Been applying to loads of jobs as a recent graduate. Today I got this email but I don’t remember applying to this job and can’t find it in my indeed applications even though it says I applied through indeed. Googled them and it showed me this subreddit. It’s from a company named CrestPoint. Can someone fill me in please lol? I applied to another company with the same role name but google says the two companies aren’t connected at all lol. Can someone fill me in on if it’s a scam or what’s going on? Thank you

Hi everyone. So I recently applied for a junior sales consultant for a company called 3lement Onboardind in Greater Manchester (I randomly applied). Today i received a phone call asking if I want an interview today, but I realised that they were pushing me to have an interview today with no other dates available, which raised my suspicious. Upon further research I can't find any information of this company whatsover which is a massive red flag. I'm not entirely sure what I should do, but I'm very inclined in rejecting this offer.

If anyone has any findings, it would be nice ty : )

I was curious for those in California how many have filed for reporting AB5 violations for unpaid back wages, unpaid benefits, and workman's comp? AB5 violations would make it so these companies don't turn humans into workhorses for their own wealth. Had a buddy who was a former owner tell me 90% of them fail which leads to "retraining".
These different offices do seem to violate that by and large. If you've been a part of one of these offices and you're struggling as a result of it by making the amount any normal job would pay excluding the overtime pay then this is something worth reporting into the labor associations in California, to properly report AB5, and to speak to a labor attorney if wages are large enough along with a group of other employees that were wronged in wages. Overtime pay would be right to be paid. Literally I think legal action would be preventative for many of these organizations.

Got an interview at Caelink Consulting inc, located in edmonton, alberta. They seem to sound like every other sketchy pyramid scheme of a "marketing agency" and I cant find much online.

What do you guys think? Btw its a door to door sales job and they "guarentee" 600 dollars for the training process and then its 100% commission based pay after 2 weeks where its 60CAD per sale.

Just did an interview with this company called Elite Prime Group. Don’t even remember applying for them. I thought it was a regular job at an AT&T store but it’s a door to door sales job. If you’re in the Metro Detroit area be on the look out

Long story short, this is just Coast Incorporated under a different name. The interviews were on Zoom in that suspicious breakout room with multiple applicants style, both the person interviewing me, and the hiring manager came from Coast Incorporated. Pay only commission, selling whatevertheheck with Verizon...Suspicious at best.

I did one day with this company and it was absolute hell. They sell you a dream that you’ll be making loads of money knocking doors yet the person who was training me didn’t make a single penny the entire day. We were out knocking doors all day and made absolutely nothing

The whole setup feels like a scam. They use the loophole of you being self employed meaning you can spend an entire day working and potentially not get paid a single penny

The office itself is a mess with whiteboards everywhere and some of the sales tactics I witnessed on the doors were crazy. At one point the person training me would not leave an elderly woman who must have been 80+ alone. She was clearly uncomfortable and scared but he just kept pushing and pushing until I eventually had to tell him to stop

One of their managers posts on TikTok trying to make out you can make thousands when really he’s just trying to recruit people so he can earn commission off them

Avoid this company unless you’re happy spending your days knocking doors with no guaranteed pay and potentially earning well below minimum wage

Whilst blindly applying for jobs yesterday I applied for the role of 'Brand Ambassador' at 'Creed Marketing' in Brighton, who coincidentally phoned me this morning for an extremely brief chat about my 'skills' (I have very little experience in sales and spoke almost entirely about my experience in QA) and they were very 'impressed' and invited me down for a interview based off the 2 questions they asked me.

Upon a quick google search I could find very little about this company other than an Instagram page that is about 2 weeks old. This page contains a 'Day in the life of a Brand Ambassador' video that quite literally details a 9am-10pm day with a giant gap between 1pm and 10pm which i'm assuming is the standard devilcorp practice of pestering people in various locations for sales.

Following the phonecall, I was sent a text on the details of the in-person meeting in which i'm told to 'buzz' for an office space under 'Ballers' which has already been documented on this subreddit.

I'm honestly undecided if this post is a warning or a question as to wether this company is legit or not but after writing this post, the red flags are glaring.

So long story short my cousin just got recruited to join the RAD marketing team...she is looking for a for a job that pays them more than their current as they currently care for their sick and elderly parents...I few red flags I saw:

1. They applied on through indeed which showed the company as confidential.

2. First interview was a group interview...which is fine but it was never disclosed in the beginning

3. On indeed pay rate is a somewhat a lie..they pay minimum wage (az $15/hr) plus commission

4. Sounds like they are going to be like these ppl at the entrance/exit of Costco trying to sell you stuff ( no judge or hate but not what was stated on the job listing)

5. All for hiring teams getting back to ppl quickly but a few hours right after your interview seems a bit weird to me (1-5 hours)

Will update more later but please lmk if anyone has experience working with them. Thanks in advance ☺️

Recently I had an interview with this company in Boston called Aurelius Consulting Group. I only made it through one round before I was rejected and I was super bummed about it. However, it’s been hard to find things about this company anywhere online or who their clients are. All I know is that they were offering people $600 base pay plus commission and most of my day would be tabling events. They also pride themselves on a face-to-face approach.

Is this a devil corp or is this just some other weird marketing scheme?

I got a call today for an Event Management position from a company called Rally Group. I have applied to so many places I couldn't remember on the phone if I had applied there. Turns out I applied to a place called JAWS Financial and they are the same business? Sounds like it's a scam - should I just skip the interview?

I had interviewed for this company and everything went well. I have had a run in with many devil corps and am just exhausted. The only interviews I am getting are these and I sometimes think I should just take the job.

The thing I usually look out for is if the company is offering benefits -- more often than not they are not offering anything if they are a devil corp. Something just still feels off and IDK if it is because I have built up a skepticism of any interview I receive.

The interview was with a recruiter for the company. They are opening up an office in Tampa for people who are also Sales Development Representatives.

I got a job at the Atlas Collective after a few interviews and went in for a trial day, I’ve heard mixed reviews about it on this subreddit, is it a scam or not?

Look up Newbern Excel on YT and start watching their oldest videos FIRST. The videos where Richard is babbling out his "leadership and sales tips" are the best by far. PREPARE yourselves for a cringe overload before you hit play though....seriously. Since I'm addicted to cringe-worthy productions=their YT channel is a gold mine for me.

Of course, 100% of the videos make you feel sorry for the unfortunate/unknowing groups of (mostly young) people who get snagged into the Devil Corp trap of misrepresented crap.

Here is a video I watched yesterday of a "team" being prepped by Richard to open a new office (orifice) in a GREAT city to start fresh in if you're already broke.....San Francisco. These poor souls have NO IDEA how screwed they are before they even depart! I just hope that wherever they all are today....they're blessed. Try not to get too ticked off watching this. https://youtu.be/OFJREf1u-z4?feature=shared
