Eagle Vision Marketing - Eagle Vision Interprises - Tri-Universal Marketing
Ripoff, long hours, commission only, dirty, scam

I once was unemployed and was for over a month. I saw this ad for Tri-Universal, Inc., also known as Eagle Vision Interprises. Here I thought it was going to be something new in the scope of marketing and going to events, and learning management skills and such.

Well turns out these "events" were nothing more than gas stations to sling car wax. I thought well... I might give it a shot since I really didn't have anything else lined up, and I've earned sales awards in my previous jobs so what the heck?

So as the week goes on I reported to work at 8am, have to sit through meetings before going out into the field to actually sell something at around 10 or 11, which means two hours were wasted right there. Then I'm out there for 6 hours, and then reporting back to the office to settle up the day's earnings. Of course, we couldn't just hand it in and be done with it. We had to wait for the owner to calculate it and then we'd be off, which at times wasn't until 7:30 or 8pm. That calculates for a 12 hour work day being paid only on commission, which wouldn't be too bad if it was a big-ticket item like a car... Not car wax.

I was also explained by the owner, Eric Mesina, about what I was going to be making per week. Now here I was thinking I was going to be getting a steady paycheck. Turns out it was commission only and I was in fact misled by just "ballpark figures" that were not explained to me as such.

I can't believe I was this stupid in believing this drivel. I guess people are desperate when times are tough, and it makes me sad that companies like this who prey on innocent working-class people, with and without degrees, are still in business today. That day I learned that just like buying a used car, that it's "applicant beware" in this job market, and if it seems too good to be true, it probably is.
