Essentially, Fueled.com exploits its workers and clients. Upon entering an agreement with the company, I read an advertisement which indicated, "Upon completion of your internship, there is a HIGH probability of you being hired." Approximately two months into the training, I was then told, "about 10% of interns are hired."
I am blowing this whistle on this highly misleading information, a direct contradiction willingly known about my the company. They use such enticing grounds as full-time employment to maintain a steady stream of UNPAID interns, who work tirelessly, undoubtedly unaware of the "10%" chance of them being hired. With no chance of a full time position, a significantly smaller portion would willingly choose to work day in and day out for no money!
Additionally, I was told my work was "not billable" aka not worth money. Meanwhile, I was assigned a public relations client who was billed $125 dollars an hour for my work. Another contradiction. This company acts on a tight budget, misrepresentation and exploitation. Workers unite.
