WORST company ever

Things I hate about this company:

1) Making part time income for working full time hours.  Imagine working 50 hours a week and only making about $200 for the week?  That is LESS than minimum wage.  You're better off working part time at some fastfood place.  

2)  Bully attitude of management.  Their "CEO"... acts more like a schoolyard bully.  And many of their top level employees seem to have this... DESIRE to con people.  And they cant even hide it properly. 

3)  Most of the money people donate to this organization goes to fund Reginald's expensive lifestyle.  He lives somewhere in a nice rich suburban neighborhood somewhere in Whitby, ON.  If you go to his house, you will see his very expensive lifestyle.

#1 UPDATE EX-employee responds

Thanks PAYD!

AUTHOR: Encourager - ()

For all the skeptics out there (namely Brandy and the other person who has nothing better to do with his/her time than write reviews) it is ultimately God who will judge everyone in the end. So if you want to spend the rest of your lives being bitter because a job didn't work for you and try and get your revenge by making up things or coming down on the organization, then I really feel sorry for you. 
 
The bottom line is this, what did not work for you may work for someone else.  I have benefitted in many ways through PAYDs programs and will continue to be thankful for the experiences I have gained while being with the organization.

Thanks again PAYD!

It's obviously a fraud

AUTHOR: Brandy ForTheNerves - (United States of America)

I have to agree with the skeptics. I worked for these people as well and nothing they do is even remotely legal. At least half of their projects aren't running and the accumulated funds go towards the sociopathic CEO's habits and fancy clothes.

Great organization?

AUTHOR: truth exposer - (Canada)

I was with People Against Youth on Drugs for 5 months and benifited from their scholarship program, which helped with my university tuition.

- Scholarship program?  Or the funds YOU helped raise for 5 months and only a meager fraction of it was given back to you, repackaged as a "scholarship program" so you wont feel as ripped off.  Listen.  I worked for this organization.  Assuming you would raise $800 a week in funds.  Do the math.  $800 x 4 = $3200 raised.  Then $3200 x 5 = $16000

You raised that much funds and a portion of that was given back to you.  Simple math. 

"I was a Fundraising Ambassador and also got to experience their drug awareness programs, which are offered free to schools"

- It is not free.  The funds you raised go into Reginald's pocket.  So it is not free.  Drug awareness grandstanding for 2 hours in 2 weeks and making thousands of $$$ cuz people like you do the work for him?  Sounds like a great deal to me.  All I have to do is grandstand for 2 hours and drive around in a Benz and pimped up clothes and then make money off the sweat of other people and not even pay em properly.

You dont know you are even being used.

Great Organization

AUTHOR: Employee - (United States of America)

My children are in the PAYD programs and they love it.  People Against Youth on Drugs is an amazing organization.  They make a difference in hundreds of kids' lives each year and I support this organization to the fullest.  And Reginald is a great guy who loves and cares about kids.  You shouldn't bash an organization and it's leader for being successful just because things didn't work out with you.  PAYD is doing great things in the community.  What are you doing to make a difference???

People Against Youth on Drugs, a great organization to be a part of!

AUTHOR: Encourager - (Canada)

To "Truth Exposer" who wrote the complaint:  Have you ever stopped to think that maybe this wasn't the right job for you?  Maybe the fast food restaurant would have been a better choice.

I was with People Against Youth on Drugs for 5 months and benifited from their scholarship program, which helped with my university tuition.  I had a great experience at this organization.  I was a Fundraising Ambassador and also got to experience their drug awareness programs, which are offered free to schools, the summer camp and even had the chance to tutor!  I was not able to go on any international poverty relief projects but I do plan to in the future, as helping impoverished families is something I have always wanted to be a part of.  I would have to say that since working with PAYD my confidence levels increased drastically.  I started as a shy person and left (due to school) more confident and open minded.  My experience with PAYD will definitely help me in my future endeavors.

Thanks PAYD and keep up the good work:)

p.s- where one may live shouldn't determine how an organization runs and the difference they are making in the lives of others.
