This company is one of the most foul one can encounter. I have been working as a REAL psychic and spiritual counselor my entire life, and these people are just out for... I don't even know what. I have never worked for a company that used solely Skype, webcams and microphones to do readings for people. I was supposed to be well-trained before I ever began, but my training was rushed and incomplete. The trainer then treated me rudely whenever I contacted him on Skype to ask a question. I was given conflicting information about scheduling, but darn near memorized their long packet of training materials (which still was highly incomplete) so that I could do a good job. I love working with people, and evidently that showed, because by just day two my 'room' was overflowing with people who kept telling me how much they loved speaking to me! So, I thought I was getting it figured out, even though management never once answered any of my emailed questions (the only way we're permitted to reach management). I busted my butt like crazy to get my room camera ready. We had to 'fish' for clients, meaning that anyone could come into our free chat rooms (where the psychics don't make a cent) and if someone wanted a private session, they would click a button and I would be taken into a private chat room to do a reading for them. I never had a single complaint - again, everyone kept telling me they loved me.
One thing I kept trying to correct them on regarding their own policies is that for two weeks, a new employee worked for a tiny rate per minute. After that, they were called 'experts', and could charge up to $20 per minute!!! (Outrageous). But from day two, they called me an 'expert', though I was never told I could start charging what I liked. (I like to be in the middle, though 35 years experience gives me the right to charge anything I could imagine. But I want to help people, not take them for everything they have! I just want to be able to make a simple living doing it).
So, though I asked questions that were never answered by management and I kept to everything except my schedule for a couple of days (the latter due to being very sick, which I informed them of), I received an email saying I had been terminated "based on the recent member's feedbacks and due to the fact of repeated violations of our rules we need to terminate your work at, Oranum.com We are very disappointed with your practices thus we close your
Psychic account permenantly."
That is all I've been told. I have NO IDEA WHATSOEVER of what I could have said or did wrong even once, I was so careful; let alone repeatedly. And I only was with them for 6 days — what terrible crime could I have committed? I am not new to doing this work, and care deeply for my clients. I always tell anyone who is unhappy that they should try another psychic, and tell them sincerely that I would not be at all offended. So, they just let go someone who was going great gangbusters on their line without ever responding to my concerns about how to improve my work and without telling me what infractions had occurred. This saddens me immensely, because when any business treats its employees this way, they treat their customers just as poorly. So please, for your own benefit, stay away from this company. There are real, true companies with real, true psychics (geniunepsychics.Co. Au is one) who will really care for and help you. But this subcompany (Oranum) of the parent company (Lalib, who operates many, many companies) should be avoided. We all have to make a buck, but we don't have to use people for our own greed. And Oranum/Lalib is committing this crime in full.
So, protect yourself and stay away from such money hogs! You deserve so much better!
