OK OK OK Let the chick do the talking, For one whatever call center you worked at that gives there employees weed, Why didnt you report it, Duhh. You must have done it too. I work in The Boise call center and the only things i can say about it are good. You are never going to destroy yCDG its not going to happen. There is no reason. And you cant do it alone. It is a very legitimate organization and the people who give arent lured into it. They could say no! You obviously are very mad you got fired cause there is absolutely nothing wrong with CDG. IM A TSR AND ACCM. I get the inside scoop. You wanna know what that is?. . . . .ABSOLUTELY NOTHING!!
Find something else to be mad at.

For either of you to say that this company is a monstrous pile of unethical crap is ridiculous. First off, I have seen first hand this company offer the person with the most "donations" a bag of weed for their "hard work". If that doesn't indicate a serious drug problem, I don't know what does.
Secondly, this company sits around and claims to be non-profit, while the owners line their pockets with cash coming from the "donations". The company doesn't do active trading on the stock market so they don't have to release their "earnings" to the public.
Third, 85% of the "donations" collected by this company go right back into their own coffers. If you donate $20 to the company, barely $4 is going to go to what the company tells you it is going to go. That is deception on their part, and the company should have their FCC license pulled.
This company is a huge joke, and one of the most unethical companies around. Sure, you may be getting payed a decent wage to call people, but the cost is that you are ripping off other people out of their hard earned money. The supervisors tell you to try to solicite the elderly more, because they are uncaring and will more than likely donate. It's pathetic that a company would rip off elderly people out of the meager money they probably have anyway. I hope this company goes bankrupt, and the likes of it are never seen again.

I work at Civic Development Group in Muskegon, now i've heard stories about sex and drugs and things of that sort at other facilities, and I must say, THANK GOD this doesn't happen at the Muskegon Call Center.
For as long as I have been at CDG, no one is getting ripped off, they choose whether to donate or not, I just read my rebuttals and recieve my paycheck, i've never had a problem with management nor do I plan too.
I like working at CDG, flexible schedule, decent pay, friendly environment, and plus, I am always getting shoutouts in the group meetings.
So for whomever is reading this, stop saying CDG is a Rip-Off!!!!

Get Over It nobody is getting robbed

Listen Man
I have been with the company for 4 years and here is the reality you need to see.First off nobody is getting robbed the people we call agree to give the dnation and if it was lying or deceptive then the FTC would lock the doors.Ya alot of the less fortunate people are the ones that end up giving but did you read the script in front of you.Lets asumme you did and in that case the donor made the choice to give.If you lies to get it then your in the wrong not Civic.As far as the % ya it could be more but its better than none and thats what alot of them would have had.
I mean dude i have worked for several offices and have been a mgr abd caller and am a caller again in a new office so i have seen several sides of civic.I have my issues with the company but the guys on this site make it sound so bad and im sure that you see it that way but what i see guys and girls wanting to whine about something that does alot of good in alot of ways.
This company does go to underdeveloped towns but how will that hurt he town its a job for alot of people and the remark in one complaint about employing people that are to stupid to know the diference is a very nice comment. I find it great to tell people thay are stupid so whoever wrote that one pat yourself on the back.
Ya there is alot of drugs in the company but you find me any company where at some level certain employess dont use them. As far as the belitteling of people i have seen that myself but it was always people who were not foing there job.
I mean they chose not to do it,They could do it but wouldnt.
Bottomline people is this its a job for small communities and school kids and it does raise some money for great groups so quit the whining and let people make there own choice.
