Sports Promotion Network (SPN)
Treats employees with the same respect that a pack of coyotes treats a newborn animal. Ripoff! Unethical! Arlington, Grand Prarie

Miscellaneous

Sports Promotion Network (known as SPN and BNE) hired my girlfriend last Friday to work for them as a salesperson, selling promotional items to businesses for school athletic events. She began working there on Monday, the day that she began her training. Upon being hired there, they all but promised her the moon, with the benefits they claim they offer.

At the start of her training, she was given an employee handbook with guidelines on employee conduct and sales procedures. It was on Tuesday that the trainer (Bobby) announced that there would be a quiz on Wednesday and a comprehensive test on Friday that all employees would have to pass in order to keep their jobs there (after she was "hired" the previous Friday and not told that she would have to take such a test to retain such a job).
To give you a little background here, my girlfriend had been working in sales for extended periods since the age of 17, often ranking among the top sellers.

Early Wednesday morning, Bobby (the "trainer") had each employee recite their script from memory, with my girlfriend being the last one to recite it. Bobby interrupted her in the middle of it for one mistake and told her to start over. As intimidating as he was being to her, my girlfriend felt like she was about to cry, so she let Bobby know. Bobby immediately lost his temper and told her to "get your stuff and come with me to Tammy's office". (Tammy is the Human Resources "Manager" for SPN).

Bobby then coerces my girlfriend to sign a statement saying that she violated three standards of SPN (attitude, and I don't remember what the other two are at this point.) I'm very infuriated right now). Bobby and Tammy privately discussed his action against my girlfriend then Tammy blindly agrees with Bobby that my girlfriend should be fired. So there you have it - another company who treats their employees with the same respect that a pack of coyotes treats a newborn animal with.

Folks, I would strongly encourage you to get in touch with any news sources you can that would be willing to investigate SPN's unethical employment practices (you never know, SPN could be a cousin of Enron) or maybe discuss this with any attorney that deals with employment law. And make any businesses that this company deals with aware of this company's practices and encourage them to terminate all contracts and transactions with SPN.
No employee should be treated in this manner, and "trainers" such as Bobby and human resource "managers" such as Tammy should be demoted and given a broom and mop rather than a desk and nameplate.
