Phoenix Management, branch of Scentura Creations This is a huge scam They lie and just tell you what you like to hear You never get the whole truth with them ripoff business from hell Middlesex New Jersey
I worked for them in September of 2001 for about 5 weeks. Basically they tell you that this is a "great opportunity" and if you go thru with their 6 week training program you will start your own office and own your own business. For a while I did believe them becuz they brainwash you. They say that if you leave you are a weak piece of s**t and anyone who has pride doesn't want to be called that and that is one of the reasons why I did stay so long. Then finally one day reality just hit me hard.
I had no money, I was losing my family and my boyfriend. They also tell you not to listen to your family or your friends. The managers are Donny and Holly. The hours are outrageous and the pay is crap. They also do NOT tell you that there is no base salary, so basically if you sell nothing, you make NOTHING. They don't tell you that you are basically their guinea pigs to go out on the street to sell their fake a*s perfume and cologne.
The whole time I was there I made about 50 bucks. Its just so ridiculous. I felt so bad cheating people out of their money. They told us to go out and look for "gumps" (guy/girl under my control). After I went completely broke working for them I had to start stripping just to earn back the money I lost. I am still in severe credit card debt due to this.
Beware of ads that say "wild and crazy environment" or "our company is expanding need branch managers now will train 500 a week" . Please don't make the same mistake that I did. Companies like this need to be shut down. Scentura is nationwide and they have offices everywhere, but every office has a different name so BE CAREFUL!!!
