I have done about 12 merchandising jobs for Market Force. The pay is low, but if the hours were okay and it was within 15 miles, I would take a job. I auto-assigned for two of the jobs that were monthly maintenance jobs I did in January. The first monthly maintenance jobs were capped at 3.75 hours, and these were to be done every month for the same pay and hours. Like a contract.
Well, when I looked at my auto assignments for February, they were the exact same jobs except they dropped the 3.75 hours to 2.75 hours to do the same job. I emailed them and was told they can't guarantee the jobs will be the same, but when I signed up for the auto-assign it said it would be the same pay. Mind you, these jobs have already been scheduled and accepted. These people went back into the jobs and dropped the hours down even more to 2.5 hours after it had been assigned. I called them today and the winch basically hung up on me when I told her I would not do the jobs for that.
Oh yeah, that $2 for 15 minute deal on their work orders - it don't happen. You will not get paid if you go over your capped hours.
Do not waste your time with this company. I kept wondering why there were so many jobs open in my area. Well, I know why now. I'm unsubscribing to that sorry company as soon as I finish this report.

first off i would like to say the pay as you stated is the same most jobs are 8 dollars an hour thats minimum wage. and no the pay doesn't change it was the hours that changed. there were too many people that would go do a job that only took half hour and claim over 3 hours so they lowered the cap. Now me as an employee I can say that i like working with them. I have my choice of job i don't have to take a job if i don't want to. I even get calls from that asking if i could go do this that or the other job and they will even pay me more some times they will ask me what it would take in pay for me to accept the job you would be surprised how much you can ask for and still get assigned the job. My favorite jobs are the theater jobs. nothing like getting paid to see a movie etc.

I recently signed up to work for Market Force. I have been a mystery shopper for several years and have always been paid on all my shops with other companies and received high marks for my reports.
After I applied and was accepted to Market Force, I took one of their certification tests, on which I received 100%. I then began looking for potential jobs. Most were out of the area, so I kept looking for a couple days. On the third day, I noticed potential shops were no longer available to me. I then asked HR about it. I got a very generic reply stating I had been removed as a shopper with them.
I would like to know what has happened to my SS#, etc.. they have collected? I plan to file a grievance with the attorney general and the MSPA. Not just for my minor incident, but because I believe something more is happening there and the company needs closer scrutiny of their practices. It is obvious they have full-time trolls on the Internet to negate people's claims.
I recommend that you apply to and work for companies other than Market Force.
