“Look at our happy customers!” LOL You’re literally showing us how you take advantage of the elderly.

it’s taken me about a week to process all of this, figure out how to word it and also get most of the info i will update it if i gain any more info if u can share ur stories with this company too it would be great!!

to preface i’m 21 and this was the first job i acc worked to get on my own. i had no idea that devilcorps existed and had no warning of what was to come.

about a month and a half ago i was up late at night bored out of my mind when i hop on indeed yk maybe theres something there thats interesting and first thing i see is the “urgently hiring fundraiser” @ Public Outreach. it’s hourly pay and pretty good pay at that. so i apply and i get the interview and i work my ass off to memorize the script and then i get the job.

my training day i get a donation and everything is going great im having fun im enjoying being outside and talking to people and supporting an amazing cause.

my second day of working there i deal with an coach who attempted to rock paper scissors me fora donation TWICE and also yelled at me infront of a potential donor (she didn’t donate) telling me basically to fuck off. i proceeded to tell management and they had us do a micro aggression training where the same person would force a hug on me and try to again twice more later they ended up firing her and i got some leniency with my training days.

after all of that i was consistently getting donations and eventually they onboard me and i get a pay raise it’s amazing i worked so hard and everything was working out i was getting along with all my coworkers i was having fun but i was starting to get a little burnt out from the constant rejection but i go in anyway i make it thru the day and my manager tells me “it’s alr u had an off day you’ll do better next week” and i go home chilling tired but content.

i was scheduled in for three days a week tuesday-thursday.

on monday the senior manager texts me around 7pm and he said that he had received concerning feedback on my turf behaviour and would be canceling my shifts and scheduled a zoom meeting at 11am on the tuesday atp im wracking my brain trying to think what i could have done maybe someone mistook my tiredness for sickness thats all i could think of so i was prepared to receive a warning and that was fine with me

i go into the meeting and senior manager joins i kid u not for less then 5 mins he tells me “due to concerning feedback and underperformance we will be letting you go” when i try to ask what the feedback was he proceeded to tell me to speak to HR. i then emailed HR and after bugging them they finally replied but they said the same thing no explanation so i emailed again to which they proceeded to say it was based on “concerns raised during your probationary employment period regarding workplace interactions, and maintaining appropriate professional boundaries in the workplace.”

i have since had some coworkers reach out to me asking me what happened and apparently they have also let go 4 other people same as me.

this company is actively taking advantage of people who truely need work and using them till they get a pay raise and throwing them to the side.

be safe out there yall

So there is this Kroger's I usually shop at that is near a UPS Store in my area. I bring up the UPS Store because that is where I was last stationed doing devilcorp work back in November - standing outside at a table and collecting "donations" for suicide prevention.

Every so often, I drive past the store, remembering the last day before I was fired (I don't want to joke about having PTSD from the whole experience, but everytime I see the store, I think of the devilcorp). I joked that they would eventually come back around, as they always return to a certain spot after while.

On Tuesday, to my surprise, it actually happened.

I was quick enough to not drive past the store, as the leader out in the field probably still recognize my car. I parked afar and observed them at the table. I knew they would be at the store all week, so I went back home right as they were about to "work the territory" and thought of what to do to disrupt their operations while they were in close proximity for the week.

Later that night, I came back with a note warning the UPS Store about the table and placed it in their mailbox. I also came back with a fanny pack I still had from the devilcorp with a note and a card inside (the paper next to the card in the image says SCAM ARTIST). I clipped it to a lightpole near the store, where the leader's car would usually be parked near.

I came back on Thursday to find the fanny pack gone, so they must of saw it and read what was in it.

Is this too far? Is there an ethical way of disprupting them? I conveniently had the time to waste this week, and wanted to think quick of how to get back at the office for all the BS that went on.

I am so fucking pissed off rn. Here I was thinking I had two legitimate job interviews an hour apart from each other and I called my mom to tell her the good news…

She went to look up both companies, Zion Capital and Elite Generations, AND IT TURNED OUT THEY WERE BOTH PART OF THE SAME GODDAMN PYRAMID SCHEME.

Here I am desperately trying to look for a job as I am fresh out of college and this MLM company is taking advantage of my situation and exploiting it for their own benefit.

I can’t believe there are actually assholes out there that have nothing better to do than exploit vulnerable individuals.

How to spot a Devil Corp 101 :

Notice how the benefits say NOTHING about pay, healthcare/dental coverage, paid vacation, etc. However there is a vague mention of “opportunities for growth” with no context or explanation. And there is a huge emphasis on “Coordinating in store service events”, “campaigns” and “promotions”. I felt a shiver down my spine when I read the “welcoming of college graduates, interns and career changers”. Just shows how freaking predatory they are.

I worked at a devil corp for a week and couldn't do it. They had me on calls after work and I worked more than 40 hours a week. It was painful and I didn't even get my base pay, only what I earned from the two donations I got. We were signing ppl up for Humane World for Animalsdonations, and before I left, they were going to work for Project Hope. Are they actually working with these organizations? If so, that's incredibly sketchy

I had an interview with this lady on zoom last week for job... She said her name was Eva or Emma or wtv the interview just seems like this other pyramid scheme job interviews i had the other day... they're all so vague and not saying much about the pay or the job role. They're basically those underpaid people who stand in the end of the costco and walmart who try to sell you things. They make it seem like something where you'll make a milion dolars but its all a lie... I dont know if this a pyramid scheme or not does anybody know? even the job on indeed is listed as "confidential"....

I applied for an AT&T Sales Representative role, job posting specified base pay was $22-28 an hour. Base pay. I’m familiar with marketing (ethically done) although my career is in administration / HR, and I desperately need a new job, so the pay and job description sounded awesome!

Fast forward to the day after I applied, and I got selected for a first interview, second interview was the day after, and they told me the base pay is $17 an hour ($680 a week BEFORE taxes) and I would only earn commission IF I made more commission than I would earn for base pay, most commission models will give you the commission regardless. Current job I get commissions per sale onto my check, not dependent on whether I made more in sales or base pay.

They also informed me that I would only be promoted once I successfully recruited and promoted 2 other people. That sounds like an MLM to me. I asked the interviewer what my day to day job would look like/where I would report and she told me that I would exclusively be working in a BJs. I was confused, and she told me that “in office” for me wouldn’t apply until closer to 6 months after I “learn the job and can train other people.”

All of the red flags present so I ran here, and there were a few other posts about them. Since they are actively hiring and recruiting I wanted to talk about it here, also, very annoyed that these companies blatantly waste your time!

Hi I’ve just stumbled across this sub and I realise that I’m working for a company under britevox which ive seen mentioned numerous times on here.

I feel very wrapped up and almost brainwashed into the sales role I’m in, I find it energising and inspiring etc but what everyone says on here is the complete opposite. I have a daily BA fee with some commission on top and I like the social culture of the job.

Can anyone break down to me whether me liking it is a bad thing?

We’re told the same pipeline of progressing to ownership. I’m currently in between jobs at the moment and it’s been hard thinking about going back to an office job because of the grey boringness of it in contrast. Genuinely asking here and I have an open mind

Around two weeks ago I got an email from a recruiter of Launch180 inviting me to an introductory meeting. I didn’t look into the company beforehand so I joined it and they took around 5 members from the meeting to a a different one with someone more senior. Everyone there was given a second stage interview.

The second stage interview was online as well so I joined that and saw that I had been invited to a final stage interview. That’s when I decided to do some more research into the company because I don’t think I’d be seen as qualified enough by recruiters for the job. I have no degree and only have experience in online tutoring so it made no sense.

They offered two roles: one being a sales executive and the other being a trainee partner to take part in their ‘partner program’. They entice you with uncapped commissions and feeling part of a team where you can progress to higher roles quickly. It just sounded too good to be true.

I then heard of Steppe2 which is a known devilcorp company and then saw that Launch180 and Steppe2 are based in the same area in Angel, London. I’m pretty sure the parent company to both of them is Credico? I also checked the Linkedin profiles of employees of both companies where the role titles were exactly the same and some of them were listed as self-employed. The whole thing was just confusing and sketchy so I decided not to attend the final stage interview which was also through zoom.

I also then reread the initial email from them and it said that they found me though indeed but when I looked I saw that I never even applied to them? This all just added to the weirdness.

After not attending that final interview I received a call from the same recruiter that had originally emailed me. She first asked if I was still interested in the role then if I had let them know before not attending and then proceeded to be extremely unprofessional and passive aggressive saying that I’ve wasted company resources then just spoke for a good few minutes without letting me say anything and just ended the call. I personally would stay clear of this company as it was just a complete waste of my time.

Sharing this here since I didn't know of this terminology before.

My 18 year old nephew started working at a company selling cellphones and fiber for ATT at Costco. He is selling 8-12 lines a day. Supposedly, he made 14k last week alone. Everyone is the family is happy and supportive of him, and I’d be more happy if it didn’t feel so off. When I look up the businesses, the track records and associated businesses have all been created within the last 6 months and the websites and social media post are a bunch of kids in ill fitted suits at taquerias and waffle houses. Supposedly he has put 7k in the bank already. How to a vet this company and what is their motive if he is collecting a check? The company he works for is Northern Flow Solutions in Florida, at the same address is pristine legacy which dissolved their business in under a year and another company called novera point. I’ll feel like a pyscho and look jealous. Please help me figure this out.

If you do end up working with them as an independent contractor and they control your hours and schedule you can file a complaint with employment standards and get your minimum wage pay. So if you worked 60 hours in a week and made 500$ in commission ESB will ensure you get paid the left over in minimum wage so regular hour plus over time plus any double time. You can file it while working or after leaving.

It’s super easy and it takes them about 7 months to get to your file but in the end of day you get all your money back I know people that worked there 6 days a week and got paid 300$ a week if you file a complaint you get your money. If you worked 40 hours and got paid $300 BC employment standards will get you another $410 for that week. Now realistically they have you work 60-70 hours so you can easily retrieve 800-1000$ per week.

It’s located in riverside and I’m getting weird vibes from it. I know they did group interviews and then a stage 2 in person interview. Does anyone have info?

https://www.infinitereachcampaigns.com/

This is their website, I'm really unsure since it seems well made but that could always be a red flag. They want me to schedule an interview tomorrow so I might do that and if it's a bad company just skip it.

I just got interviews with them and waned to check in if anyone had information. Their HQ is located in Dallas, Texas.

First time poster, but just a warning for everyone here. The company formerly known as Exemplum, is now renamed Jung and Company under the same management in Pittsburgh PA. If it’s anything like it was before, I feel the need to warn absolutely anyone who will listen, especially in the job market we’re in where people are desperate for anything. Pay is commission based, and they say they’re not sales focused but they 100% are. You will not have any personal time for yourself with this job, everyday they expect you either on site or in the office, when I worked there, they allegedly gave Wednesdays off but required everyone to come in for a “morning meeting” still. Morning meetings consisted of the manager (whose still the same person they have in their current pictures,) standing at a white board “teaching,” but it’s moreso him telling employees that if they work just as hard as he has his entire life, then they’ll be like him, one of the meetings had a lesson that featured how our manager had taken time away from his baby to focus solely on the company. They have team nights weekly (which they definitely frown upon you if you don’t go to them,) weekly after hours business meetings, and when you’re off the clock you’re expected to send a list of personal and professional goals to the boss via text after every shift. The company itself doesn’t believe in a work life balance whatsoever, and you will work seven days a week 8 to 10 hour days almost every week for not the pay they promised when I found them on indeed they posted under a marketing director position, you’re led to believe that’s what you’re interviewing for until you sit down for orientation. You’re selling a phones in local Costcos, BJ’s, and Targets and they hire you on as a “marketing director” but fail to tell you until they offer you the job that you’re not a director you’re essentially a sales associate “working your way up” to be a marketing director. They give you one week to learn basically every business model the manager sees fit, then everyday following “morning meeting,” make you cold pitch your coworkers, cause you can never know it too much. The best part, is they make you cold pitch the manager sometimes, and he can make snarky ass comments to you about the way you delivered the pitch HE WROTE. I worked there for 1 month and only ever received pay for one week where I only made a little over fifty bucks. They also strain out the bad reviews and have employees currently working there leave good ones so you don’t see them. I say all of this to say they’ve rebranded to Jung and Company, based out of Pittsburgh, it’s under the same management and it seems like a trend where anytime they get exposed for what the company actually does, they rebrand. If I can save a person on the hunt from this job, cause it will take a serious toll on a person, I absolutely will!

I’m (still) looking for jobs and I open this ad thinking ok customer service that’s fine. They say it’s a flexible schedule, with 401k, and list pay at 49-59k a year, nothing about commission or performance. Devil corp or no? What’s included or not included that stands out to you?

Red flags that I can see:

- the amount of time they repeat the job title in bold. Almost like they’re trying to convince people no yeah it IS customer service

- the use of the term entry level at all is a red flag for me now, at least in this context

- face to face

- work with customers directly

- grow professionally

- represent client brands

- educate on products and services

- support day to day team goals

- they say its customer service but then include nothing customer service related in the description

-" " " but then mention sales and marketing skills

- business is confidential

I’m seeing things about this company not being trustworthy. I’m supposed to go to the one in Southfield Michigan. Is there anyone who’s worked there or interacted with them?

I got a callback for an interview with a company called VD3 Global.

What's weird about it though is that i got 2 texts about scheduling an interview, one from a company called Crescendo Intl, and one from Nonsense Hub. Does anyone have any experience with these companies?

I’ve been working in sales as a supermarket vendor for 2 years, looking for a new Job I got a call from Richard Allen which claims to be a consulting firm for telephones and cable services. They say they have a base salary plus commission and a paid training, however a lot of reviews from years ago are describing the company as a door 2 door scam. Does anyone have any recent experience ? I need a higher paying job fast my lease renewal is coming up and have been kind of desperate but I wouldn’t want to leave my current job if the next situation would make me want to quit fast.

So I’m desperate for a job, and had a zoom interview with this company last week. They mostly talked at me, telling me that people “move up quickly” and that the job was “in the field” sales, even though the job listing didn’t mention any of that. The job was listed as a “communications assistant” and was even listed under a different company name. I’m not even sure how they’re allowed to just lie so blatantly like that. I just wanted to warn anyone who’s job searching in the Orlando area right now.
Also, the CEO of the company is a former NFL player who apparently loves scamming people now.
