Strategic Marketing Group Cydcor
Strategic Marketing Group - Cydcor scam, no training pay, no benefits, no car allowance, deceptive careerbuilder ads

I worked for Strategic for Several Months. Like all other cydcor companies they have the same practices and procedures that most cydcor offices have as you've read on here. My interview lasted 7 minutes and then spent all day the next day driving around selling bellsouth products business to business. I was out of college and was desperate for a job so I accepted the position not knowing it was comission only which was my fault.

When I asked about benefits the owner told me they were getting a Blue Cross Blue Shield representative to come in within the next couple months. It never happened, my parents were pissed because they thought I was lying to them.

When I asked about a car allowance/reimbursement plan I was told to "write it off in my taxes." Once again, all bullshit. I put nearly 10,000 miles on my car and didn't get reimbursed a single cent for it.

In our atomosphere meetings I was constantly told not to never mention the cydcor name to new starts because people could google it and find "losers who quit the business whine online about us." Our leaders meeting we would sometimes go through how to avoid certain questions in interviews (pay, car reimbursement, benefits) and have planned rebuttals around them.

I worked the bellsouth business to business campaign where we would go in and bother business owners for their phone bill. We worked 12 hour days with stupid rap music in the background. The final straw for me was when in a atmosphere meeting a group of us were listening to how one of our leaders would upgrade customers DSL service by saying "Everyone around you has a faster DSL service so im going to go ahead and upgrade your speed." I made me want to vomit. Not only was he lying about knowing everyone's DSL speed but he would upgrade it avoiding the increase in cost question while everyone around him thought his strategy was wonderful.

The holidy parties were like cult rallies. We had to listen to douchebags like Michael Sessions (i've read alot about him on here) and Ken Lear and How they stepped on everyone else's heads to get to where they are at.

I have a good job with a nice salary and benefits. A job where they care about you and your family situations. If you want to run around door to door pissing off businesses owners then this job is for you. I would have never written this if they would have been upfront and honest with me. "honesty" and "integrity" right?
