I worked for this company for almost three months before I had to leave because I ended up working for free. This is a telemarketing company that "supposedly" helps customers lower their gas bills by changing to an alternative gas supplier. We were given a script to read and were promised $12 for each customer that we signed up. At first, it appeared as if we were being paid correctly, but as time went on, all of the sales staff started to notice discrepancies in their checks. Supposedly, OMG received a cancellation report from their client which listed all of the customers who had cancelled. We generally lost around 10% of our deals to cancellation, and the company was very good about giving us a print out of our cancels and the reasons why the customers cancelled. But as time went on, our number of cancels increased dramatically. What used to be 10% now became in excess of 50%, and the company refused to give us any reporting of our cancellations. We were told if we did not like it we could hit the door. Also, if we had to miss a day during the week, our pay was cut from $12 per deal down to $8 per deal. The company employs mainly Department of Corrections work release prisoners who are paid an hourly wage, but receive cash under the table that is not reported to the Department of Corrections. Why should a convict receive special priveledges that other employees don't? What was once a really fun, exciting place to work has become a dungeon of stress. We work 37.5 hours a week and it is really hard to take home more than $100 in a week. They have run off most of the good help, including the manager John, who is probably the only one that truly knew what was going on. The owners, Rob and Matt, spend most of their time next door at Rachel's strip club probably spending our money on strippers and buying drinks for their convict employees. This outfit is truly a bunch of misfits... They have one male rep that pretends to be Ms. Davis on the phone, other reps who can't speak decent English and a whole bunch of reps who speak nothing other than ebonics. These people were run out of their last company, Total Marketing Concepts, and it looks like they have brought all of the thieving and lying tactics of TMC to OMG. Stay away from these people unless you like working for free.
