cydcor pyramid scheme

They're the one making the most money at the location, and all they're worried about is paying off google/yahoo/separate PR firms to make that location/business appear legit. can bad employees and bad managers change? Apparently they recognized that I was suspicious, so on the second interview she was wearing a ring and talking to me about her husband repeatedly Once again they put forth quite an effort to perform a show for applicants. LW4: personally, I would use the parenthetical that Alison suggested. +1. in the analysis. The parenthetical explanation draws too much attention to the pronouns and could feel othering or even risk outing Susan. I second the suggestion to put the document down, do something else for a little while, and then go back and look at it again once your brain has changed gears. Ah, one more thingfor catching typos and misspellings, I read each sentences backwards. Privacy Policy. I agree. I dont regret turning traitor to my former employer but I do keep it off my CV). The product were selling is legitimate and reps dont have to buy a package to get started, but the training, promotion, and commission structure is 100% pyramid. Overall, with a company this shady, its better to acknowledge that it was a mistake to join, as opposed to try overly hard to not say anything negative. OP may need to do this. Id prefer they but Im not so attached to it that I cant cut people some slack. Now the administrator has done her job and the applicant has reached the office for an interview. The Clearance guys did that. If was also a job with a lot of time pressure, so I did myself a favor when I got 95% of everything right after the second check. Sorry, that sucks. How those businesses take care of those complaints is what separates good businesses from the rest. I work in government and everything (save for SS#s and banking info) in our file is public knowledge so Im not as disturbed by that the info is being kept private but the manner in which she is sharing this and the vitrol/mocking that is surrounding it is definitly wrong and should be brought to the attention of higher-ups. When looking for the root cause, I realized I usually made these mistakes because the analysis I did to get this number would often undergo a change after I initially created the slide. do I really need to send a thank-you note after being rejected for a job? Of course, they may feel that you perhaps lack judgment/experience, if youre junior, theyll chalk it up to a learning experience. No! But if youre just not up for dealing with it, its perfectly fine to just ignore the contact. Also they will do just enough to make you believe that you are going to get promoted, just need to do a few more things. I get placed within this group of people, some 40 years old, some 18 with peach fuzz. Sounds kind of pyramid-like doesn't it? Im far more impressed than I would be by a degree. Who's crazy enough to start this website? If no one else is reviewing your work before it gets to them I think thats a bad setup unless there is literally no time to allow for that for some reason. Your solution to your mistake problem begins at home with the self-care you do at home. You inferred that. I figured that's when I would make it. The company required high school transcripts; to demonstrate that my transcript was mine, I also provided a copy of my name change certificate. Well, in one of the sentences he had used the wrong pronoun! Otherwise its a totally non-issue. It may be that people arent required to make an INITIAL investment, but do have to purchase stuff to sell on an ongoing basis. Sign in. I have a problem with careless mistakes. I made some money at first, but it dried up as they sent me to worse and worse neighborhoods with no real businesses to canvass. I went back to school in my mid-30s. Can we not use the b word when referring to women? Also, total side note, but a quick Google search says that almost 2,000 American men have had this name since they started tracking names in the 1880s. Misinterpreting data? Susan they is not something that would stand out to me, and if it would, I would judge it as deliberate, thoughtful writing. Alpha Business Acquisitions in Louisville, Ky; Alpha Acquisitions in WV; WYG Consulting in North Myrtle Beach; Loba Group in Cincinnati, to name a few. Ill give credit where its due I did get one reasonably good job through a recruiter. In the end you don't realize when you take someone out on 2nd and 3rd round interviews that they have to come with you to sell their products using deceptive words and pitch to get "customers" to sign up for their products in 4-6 hours in the bitter cold or horrible Chicago Climates usually they are ill-prepared as you are walking in snow and flooded walkways in dress shoes and heels. All of their reviews are the same people. I know this Cydcor ruse. There are a few phrases that trigger a hard ignore. Then my boss treated me poorly as a result because she thought I was after her job or trying to undermine her if I ever asked a question about anything. 7. And it doesnt cost you anything. They can be very helpful in helping make sure everythings there, and also in giving some structure to your process. Do your research, don't drink the kool-aid; cydcor is a facade. And see below link: Well, I'm not going to say this is a big time scam or anything but I only worked for them for 4 hours and quit, and I sure am glad that I did.I responded to an ad on craigslist for advertising and marketing in the sports and entertainment industries. I am selling a car thru an Is this a scam? You just use the pronouns. I think they prey on new grads constantly, but recessions are especially full of these sharks. Bachem has an overall rating of 2.8 out of 5, based on over 107 reviews left anonymously by employees. Of course this recruiter has reached out a second time, you have skills and they are trying to make money in filling a position. I recently landed a job with a marketing/sales office, which I took because they offered to train and promote me to HR assistant after a probationary period in their entry-level rep position. I knew that they actually wanted to grow the budget by 10%. I put she/they in my signature. Dont just enter whatever the data is on autopilot, consider if the information sounds correct. As Alison said, there is no shame in taking a retail job, and I promise you, no future employer will look down on you for doing honest work to make ends meet during a time when everyone is struggling. Trained alot of guys. But you probably dont. For the trying to get into HR OP, Im going to say a lot depends on your area. They prey on vulnerable uneducated desperate individuals and praise them and use other psychological tactics to draw them in and keep them in till they break them and/or bankrupt them. If you think someone is trying to scam you, this is the place to ask about it. Ithank you. Yeah, this was my take. Then deal with the rest. Even editors. I will close with a little background on Cydcor and it's companies. They also gave me a new first name to address them by. The pain I felt listening to her voicemails left on my phone, hearing her for the last time telling me that she loved me. They hide behind different names, and try to entice you with the "making the big bucks" in a year or two as owner. Two jobs ago I hired for entry level staff and we interviewed and offered jobs to people with all sorts of varying work histories from mental health aides to debt collectors to overseas English teachers (it seemed a good number of recent grads in 08-09 did the English teacher stint in parts of Asia). People are best off finding the quickest, easiest, cheapest, and most legitimate degree they can to tick the box. My company has gotten better at it, but there are still entry roles being advertised as requiring a degree that truly dont need one, especially when someone has some experience. I think Ill reply with a thank you for reaching out, but not looking to move right now. Pros. Im sorry you were affected by what seems like someones pathetic attempt to make themselves feel superior. Going back to the previous reviews, older reviews on glassdoor talk of insurmountable sex scandals between the "CEOs" and their field salesmen and secretaries, along with additional coworker affairs- all fruit chunks in an eerie, cult-like yogurt of an atmosphere. OP3, you have my full empathy and my utmost respect. Customer acquisition programs aimed at small and medium-sized businesses match client products and solutions to customers' unique needs. My sister was earning many more pounds than me while I was paying off my loans. Although my parents were divorced, they put their differences aside after some time and truly got along for the sake of us. Do you skip lunch and tell yourself NBD? Printing this information out and using it to make fun of people in the break rooms, though, is not at all acceptable and would bring our head of HR down on you like a ton of bricks. For some reason when I graduated in 08, there were a number of sales offices that sold TV service door to door. Even better without an audience, IMO. Someone coming in with a fresh set of eyes can check if the overall results make sense, if they match other sources, if the code looks right, if important control values are correct, etc. If it makes you feel better, I read that as blight them in the you know what and really liked the turn of phrase :). Most people in my industry have at least a bachelor, many have MBAs. My employers in the past 25 years are large, global, and/or public companies, and everything has to be done yesterday. I work in a job where accuracy matters and have the same problem. Now, almost 40 years later, he is still with the same company, but now is a senior applications developer. Ripoff Report on: Cydcor - Cydcor marketing scam multiple violation deceptive trade practices act berkely california Good luck to you, OP! Good thing theyre not hiring for IT positions; more than half the IT people I know have some sort of liberal arts undergraduate major and either learned IT on the job or did some sort of boot camp. If you were using he pronouns with a name like Susan it could come across that way, but I think they pronouns would simply come across as Susan uses they. Also, is there someone you can ask to be your proofreading buddy? People nearly always mean well, but its important to me and many others to have control over the way were perceived. What was the work purpose for this? The wages you make are below $300 a week. I agree with everyones advice. But Ive been working for 30 years and Ive (mostly) managed fine without one, as I am sure you will. If it wasnt for all of the above stuff, Id be totally fine with selling office supplies door-to-door for low pay- I like to think I am humble and try to work hard, I actually used to wash dishes at restaurants in high school. Leave your permanent job for this 6 month contract! No, you are barking up the wrong tree here. Weirdly though, this recruiter who had presumably never even seen my resume was one of the most persistent. Lets just agree that we all made the best decision we could at a very early age when we didnt have enough life experience to know all of the consequences of our choices and were doing the best we can with what weve got. Part of the idea is normalizing using pronouns so its easier and more welcoming for trans/nonbinary/etc folks. Re: OP1: beyond working to get out as quickly as you can (as you should), I might suggest to put in research as well on HR practices, duties, how good HR functions that sort of thing. The group is preoccupied with making money. BEST OF LUCK! You will have less mistakes, you will catch more of the mistakes you do make. Your brain is less likely to autocorrect what you are seeing with the correct spelling using this technique. As for leaving it and coming back later, I agree. I wasn't paid for those 3 weeks I was there (I was promised "training pay" as well, which I never received) until I had already left the company, which was money I needed to survive. The group is focused on a living charismatic leader to whom members seem to display excessively zealous, unquestioning commitment. He got a bachelors in order to advance in his police department, then was told to get a masters. And if the student gave the LW their preferred name, odds are pretty good that preferred name is somewhere in their application. Seeing my father cry while writing his Eulogy about my mom was painful. Plus really research costs and how much a degree will realistically add to your salary. Copyright 1997-2023, Ripoff Report. E.g., I have a good friend with a lot of admin experience who is unable to find an admin job because they all ask for a BA she doesnt have. She is not allowed to spill the beans to the applicant and thus is taught to say that they will cover that in the interview. Im exceedingly good at it, relatively speaking. If the errors are typos, something I do and recommend often is slowly reading your work out loud to yourself. I came to say this, too. They put his resume in their briefcase. I should mention that I am a few years from retirement (yay!) Please forward to anyone who might be interested OK, clearly this is a mass email to a list of addresses that you bought and you never looked at my resume. So say it with me now: YOU DONT NEED A SALESMAN TO GET CABLE FOR YOUR BUSINESS, YOU CAN DO IT YOURSELF ONLINE. They could reel you into the weekends later, as the CEO tried to tell me it was only an 8 AM to 5 PM sort of deal which I called him on immediately in the interview, in front of the other applicant. I work in the life sciences (one of those places where you usually need a degree because of the specific things you learn getting that degree), but one of our best lab folks had a BA in music (I never quite got the story of how she went from music to cancer biology). The guffawing coworker is just as bad. Best not to. I also am unclear on what to do when the two pronouns arent the same (I cant think of a better way to word this) and have been attempting Internet searches recently to figure it out, to no avail. Youre not committing to anything by having a conversation and potentially have something to gain (even if only information). I love Grammerly for general typos. Johnson said that her parents were turned down by a judge in Tampa, but travelled to Pinellas County, where a judge approved her marriage. Someone guffawed and asked who had the high school degree (its me). While I disagree with them that feeling insecure is a reason to pursue a degree, if someone neither wants nor needs to do so, I dont think theres any reason to take offense at their comment or read it as an insult of anyones intelligence. I will be watching suggestions with interest to this one. Before I go any further Id like to hear what other people have to say. Going off to college and not being able to call your mom about your day, your friends, boys etc. 3.5 out of 5 . I would definitely flag this and say that I wanted to know what the reason for sharing peoples files are/if confidential info would be shared in the same way. The person who said the brain autocorrects is right. What people didnt know is I had gotten kicked out of my house at 20 by my mother, in the middle of college, and she retracted all of my college payments and took all the money in in my account (I was forced to have a shared account), because I refused an arranged marriage. But I will damn well say I was talking to Mr. Smith, and he said not I was talking to Smith, and they said if I know that Bob Smith uses he pronouns and prefers the Mr. title. My boss did a great job at keeping everybody pumped up about heading out to the field. Cydcor's culture puts integrity first as it fosters the growth, leadership, and excellence of our team. and the one thing Ive learned is that it is nearly impossible to have a 100% perfect document, even if it is proofed by multiple people. Thats NOT a great system, but it will work. Put the awkward on them: why is that funny? I have a degree. I am so sorry your HR department person is being immature and acting that way. Voice of (bad) experience: if your document template uses paragraph and character level styles, do this color change in a copy of the document. Its really easy for me to gloss over small errors when my brains already reading the whole sentence. I took that bait and went on my interview. All pyramid schemes are scams, whether the fed recognizes them as illegal or not, they're scams. Rushing leads to missing things. Hi LW1, I have a friend who is they/she, because they prefer they, but realize that many people are going to default to either he or she, so they want to make sure that people realize she is the better choice, if they is too difficult. Do you want me to be spending 10% of my work on that? Its not something everyone can just go and do (and is rather shortsighted when people reckon its a simple thing to just go and get). This is super reassuring to hear, thank you! This kind of thinking is exactly what led the people in OPs break room to laugh at their lack of degree. If the position is not something that would work for the person then they really didn't fail on their own, they were assisted by this unethical recruiting practice. And then they promoted someone without either of those degrees. They will not mention door to door in these ads and even more commonly will list a salary amount that is false. You are right where you are, right next to all of those papered individuals, making just as much as them, holding the same information, skills, and responsibilities without the debt. Thank you for your time and advice. I agree. But really, when in doubt, ask them. EDIT: I see my thread sort of actually catching on; if something doesn't make sense to you please let me know in the comments and I'll be glad to clarify. There is a lot of information that is not private that one should use discretion in sharing. The funny thing is that none of them directly use their PhD area of expertise for our work now. Ive seen over 13 people start. They need a letter to complete their college application and I am at a loss at to how to do this without providing an explanation in the letter regarding them being non-binary (I dont think it would be appropriate). My skill set is pretty niche and is in high demand right now. I work at a university and its getting more common to add your pronouns as a part of your email signature or at the bottom of a letter. However, the school setting does make it seem a bit different I feel like it has a lot to do with the type of relationship you have.
