I was recently hired at Golden circle in southington... instead of selling kirby vacuums they sell people jobs. They hired me immediately *red flag* claimed to do a background check which is bogus because someone in my training group was a convicted felon *RED FLAG*. The business is disgusting, no computers, they claimed to generate so much money but still couldn't provide general office supplies. The men running the office are nothing other then uneducated losers with cheap suits, bad shoes & fake rolex who claim to be self made millionaires. You think they'd be able to afford nicer things & maybe a few pens for their business. At training, I caught one manager Mike lying about a story about someone who made it big in the company. I know it was a lie because another manager walked in and told us a totally different story about the same guy. Half of your time training is spent talking about how much money, rewards & bonuses you'll make not actually learning about the business techniques. They instructed us to lie to the customers and tell them anything they want to hear to buy the product. I walked out after two employees who have worked there for a month selling products & have still never recieved a pay check.



Warning: don't get fooled by the promise of 500$ a week because you'll never see any of it. they make you drive your own care & use your own gas.

I agree with everything you said. I worked for quest distributions in east hartford. My bosses were cocky 25 year olds in cheap suits and rolexes claiming that they got them for free for being such great employees. I also agree that there are no background checks because I worked with ex-felons. It is about time that somebody did something to shut kirby down. But the problem is that the department of labor could not do anything about them because even though they are dishonest low lifes, there are no laws protecting us good citizens because they are a private sales company. However, it is time to take a stand!!!!

Wow....I bet we were in the same training group. I was one of the ones who was only there for that first day of training and then never came back. I say "one of the ones" because I'm sure there were many like me who smelled a scam and never came back. Don't feel bad that you got taken for a little while. All it proves is that you're a good and trusting person. Nothing wrong with that. I just posted my own report, I encourage you and everyone to read it.
