Marketing Endeavors Ripoff Scheme Atlanta Georgia
I contacted Marketing Endeavors or whoever they are last year. I was hired & told I would take the company to the next level. It was funny that the only people who were working there were all under 30 with no experience at all.
I worked for a while in South Georgia with some other person who was brainwashed. We went to companies and tried to get them to switch to another phone company. Funniest thing about it was that we lied to them about how they would save more money. What they didn't know was that they would be spending more if they switched. Most people were smart enough to tell us to go away.
After 2 weeks I was oh so fortunate to go on a business trip! Yipee! They made us drive and when I found out that we were all staying in one apartment on sleeping bags I told them I was going home. Of course, they tried to talk me out of it but I told them that this was a scam and I was too smart to get involved.
Maybe you can become successful after you sacrifice your morals and your social life. Heed my warning...DON'T even respond to these people!

After seeing this company at my campus career fair and reading about them online I sent them an e-mail. I was contacted immediately about an interview. I went to the first interview and they contacted me back the same day. I was a little suspicious because they were reluctant to give me much info during the first interview. The second interview was "shadowing" an account rep. I was shuffled into a car with two people I'd never met and then went two hours away to their territory. We went around all days into different businesses and tried to get them to switch credit card processing companies. It seemed an awful lot like a scam and the comission paid to the salespeople is way below standards. The people I was with were rude and very raw in their sales practices. I knew more about what to do with my BBA than they did with their supposed "years" of training. After arriving back at the office almost two hours after I was told we'd be back they made me fill out some questionnaire and then offered me the job. I didn't except or decline, for being nervous of their response, and left. After a little thinking I realized how lucky I was to have not had anything happen to me on that long miserable second interview. PLEASE, whatever you do, don't make a mistake like Caroline and I did with this organiztion. It WILL be a waste of your time and it is a VERY SHADY company.
