As far as work from home jobs go, this is the best I've run across so far. Good base pay with a chance for bonus money weekly.

Cons

Could use fresh,solid leads on a more consistent basis.When its hot ,its hot,when its not,its not.

Pros

The online training was short and provided decent information. If you like calling businesses that have already been called repeatedly and doing that from home, this might work out for you.

Cons

Initially, people are told there is an hourly wage plus commission (that isn't completely based on your performance but the next sales person where the call is transferred). However, the candidates are supposed to work for free before they tell you if you are "hired". They tell you upfront that they won't pay you the hourly wage for the first "training" day. I almost believe they "hire" weekly in order to get free labor regularly. In other words, don't leave a paying job to do their orientation, computer setup, and training day which are all during the typical work day and unpaid in addition to the online training that can be done at any time of day (which is also unpaid). They've comingled the employee vs. independent contractor status by requiring employee duties of an independent contractor. (You should read the "independent contractor" agreement....) I don't know if they'll be in business long enough to face an IRS audit or if they'll figure it out first. It's a new company, and they are making a lot of mistakes.

We are sorry that we could not offer you a position after the trial, however, a trial is a common practice among many call center and telemarketing companies and this is discussed during the interview process. Currently, we are targeting East Coast businesses & as we grow, we will expand further West.
