Exploitive culture with a troubling reputation

Pros

No pros. This company is exploitive and cut throat. They will drain employees like the drain the purses of elderly and vulnerable clients, encouraging them to go into dangerous amounts of debt. They have a name: def con. It’s sickening. You are trained to comfort crying people who were just pressured into going into 30k or more of debt. It’s disgusting,

Cons

Read FOAI from the Life Enrichment Center scandal, Read articles from Willamette Weekly. There is a pattern of behavior.

Corrupt management that will try to make you feel inferior constantly, minimal to no raises and questionable sales techniques that push customers into purchases that should not be made.

Lying Blatantly to the Clients is Considered the Norm

Pros

The training was good. It allowed me to learn a lot of stuff in a short amount of time. I didn't expect that.

Cons

I don't like thinking about my time here. I did things that made me feel guilty, and I am not proud of them. The arrogant and terrible leadership asked us to lie blatantly to existing and potential clients. They had zero ethics. It was ridiculously complicated. I quit because I value my morals. I couldn't avoid my conscience anymore.
