DSMAX CYDCOR misleading deceptive company

You all should enjoy this one. DSMAX is a direct sales and marketing cult. That is a strong word, but no other word fits. The business style is absurd, and the qualifications leave a lot to be desired.

The job is door to door direct sales. The day lasts from about 7:30 am to 7pm or later. It is a commission only payscheme. Only you end up paying for everything. You use your own car, walk around all day, and hear the word "no" all day. You talk to 100 people, find 20 "decision makers" and maybe 3 will change their phone service to ATT.

I was in the company for about 2 months in Denver. Everything seemed professional intially. The boss was cool, but very arroogant. During my time I found out almost everyone was dating someone else there. The owner and assistant were together, and many of the leaders were dating, if not living together. Working there, this is not time for much of a social life, so I guess this dating thing is what happens.

There is no negativity allowed at all. You are called a neg bomb and treated like a loser. There are maybe 6 chairs in the office and only new hires are permitted to sit in them. If you sit down you are yelled at and told not to let go of your energy level. At the end of 10-12 hour days, you have no energy.

A lot of people come and go as time goes by quitting the job. I had made some headway and was nearly a leader and had influence on the others, I have natural management skills.

One day on the verge of me quitting the pitch was changed. I almost walked out. We were told if we used the old one we'd be fired.

I had the pleasure of taking a roadtrip to Seattle. However became disenchanted once there. I brought only one person home, and ended up stranding the other two. I ended up emptying the entire office I found later. Everyone quit. I had met someone there who I began to date and saw after DSMAX for a while. It didn't last.

It was a lot of work with little payoff. One positive thing did come out of it though. I learned I was good at meeting people and was offered position with many business I pitched to. There were also many sales concepts and skills that were useful. I would say the overall experience was negative though.
