Norvergence
Employment Joke - having their cake, and eating it too!

As an Screening Manager (SM) for Norvergence, I was treated both as an exempt, and non-exempt employee... While I was told I was an salaried employee, I had my base pay continually docked for reasons that were never entirely clear...

As I understand the law to be, if you are exempt, then if you work 1 hour, or 100 hours, your base pay is not supposed to be docked... Well, by virtue of docking your pay for less than 100% of the feedback forms (1 form per appointment) you are require to turn in each week, NorV violated employment laws...

Additionally, when I requested what the problem was with my feedback forms, I was never given an answer, or opportunity to correct the problem before they took my money!

This, in conjunction with the continual 50% or more deduction of my commissions, left me with a very sour taste... Not unlike everyone that goes through NorV training, I found out about all of this when I got to my home market office... Well after the fact...

On top of all this, the treatment I received from my local management, and from Norv HQ was demoralizing and humiliating... Time an time again NorV would increase quotas, change business rules, and otherwise create an environment that proves to have placed unattainable goals... This resulted in being unable to make the kind of money that SMs were told they could make... It's called stacking the deck!

I'm currently in the middle of negotiating my exit compensation, and it is as unpleasant an experience as it was to work for NorV...
