Encore Management Group
Employment Scam

My name is Mike, and about a month ago I responded to an online advertisement for a promising career in sports and entertainment marketing. After going through an interview process that consisted of one meeting and a day following a team leader to his sales territory, I found that this career consisted of nothing more than going to the worst, most economically deprived (crime ridden) neighborhoods in the area and chasing down every person on the street and in the office buildings to purchase the most useless, bargain basement products known to man. The sales people I worked with admitted that the products they sold were worthless and that their main goal was to sell to the most financially irresponsible people.

After only a few days on the job, I was being praised endlessly for my work and was heralded as one of the most promising employees. I was given accolades by every person in the company, being told that in only a short time I would be in a management position where I made decisions on sales "routes" and would earn a significant income for my work. Needless to say, after only a week or so on the job, I found that 12 hour days in dangerous areas where you wouldn't ever let your children in only yielded me $50.00 to $80.00 a day. These numbers averaged about $5.00 an hour for a job I despised, which is far less than minimum wage in California. After confiding with an acquaintance who had worked with the company for a bit longer, he said that he had been promised the same lucrative future with the company and so far had done nothing more than go out every day and sell JUNK out of his trunk.

This company also does not reimburse their employees for work related costs like gas, travel, and car wear and damages (which are likely in terrible neighborhoods). They advised me to fraudulently file taxes using everything I did as a work related expense to compensate for the fact that employees are paid cash in hand daily without a W-2 and entry level employees aren't responsible enough to save 30% of their income for tax purposes.

My advise to you as a potential employee is to ignore these career advertisements as nothing more than a local scam company that is no better than a sidewalk stolen goods vendor.
