Go to the above link for additional info and complaints on the company.

This company puts job Ads on craigslist almost daily that
say it pays 30-40k. They are aware that it's against craigslist policy to post
a %100 commission job without stating so in the description but they do it
anyways to get more people in the door. They also state they are looking for 10
candidates when they'd hire 15 in a second if that many decent people wanted to
work with them.





The Ad says . . .



We are looking to cross train 10 candidates, with or without experience, in the
following areas:



* Entry Level Marketing

* Customer Service

* Public Relations

* Human Resources

* Campaign Management

• Location: Fairfield
• Compensation: 30-40k
• Principals only. Recruiters,
  
  please don't contact this job poster.
• Phone calls about this job
  
  are ok.
• Please do not contact job
  
  poster about other services, products or commercial interests.

Top ten signs you are involved with Cydcor, Granton Marketing, Innovage, or The Smart Circle:

#10: You've been employed by your company for four months . . . and the company has changed it's name three times

# 9: You tell relatives and new acquaintances you are working on an 'advertising campaign' . . . but you really sell stuff door-to-door

# 8: You produce over $200 worth of sales . . . but only get about $70 of that for yourself because the pyramid gods yank the rest before it gets to your check.

# 7: Your 'management training' involves buying lunch for interviews that you'll never see again out of your own pocket . . . and you're not actually a manager, or doing any management training.

# 6: You look down on '9 to 5 schmucks' . . . who have secretaries that make more than you and your boss combined.

# 5: You espouse the principles & theories of the most successful people on Earth . . . who would be absolutely repulsed by the business you're in.

# 4: You work 75 hours a week . . . but still quietly bum money from your 16 year-old neighbor that works at McDonalds

# 3: You eat fast food more than 10 times / week . . . or can’t afford to eat

# 2: You live in a one-bedroom apartment with 10 other co-workers . . . and your boss is one of them.

 . . . and the number one sign you are involved with Cydcor, Granton, Innovage, The Smart Circle . . .

# 1: You work for a company that has in just 26 years employed 3 million people . . . and only the original employees are able to support themselves with money they make there.
