I worked at Multiview for about a month then quit. Training at Multiview is 8 days but really should be cut down to about 3 since they focus very little on the actual job and very much so on their TMS system and what the associations are in general. You will spend about 3 days out of the 8 being put on the spot and insulted if your sales pitch isn't up to their standards, even though they have taught you nothing about how to actually sell the buyers guide. Multiview sells online buyers guides to members within associations. They will tell you in the interview that these are actual leads, which is a lie. Multiview pays these associations money so that their employees can cold call their members. Multiview will give you cold leads, and act like you can make tons of money, which is also a lie.

Multiview hires vulnerable young kids straight out of college so that they can mold them into blinded cold calling telemarketers with four year degrees.

Multiview cares little about helping out the businesses they call and focuses solely on the amount of phone calls made and minutes on the phone. They give you leads that have been worked to death then expect you to make 80 calls a day with 200 minutes. Regardless of how many sales you have had the day before, how many times you have called each cold lead, and how many answering machines you have received, Multiview expects you to get in your 200 minutes at any cost! As quoted my former team lead: "get those 200 minutes at any cost!"

The pressures on for the team leads since Multiview sold out to Wall Street they must maintain unrealistic sales goals to make the guy in the dark suites and ties even richer.

The Multiview Mentality:

-Allow the employees to wear what they want
-Allow the employees to drink free sodas
-Play annoyingly loud music to distract them from questioning why they are working here
-Pretend like the employees walking around are not stoned silly and make jokes about it


So that we can:

-Brainwash them into believing that this company is the best out there
-Grill them constantly on getting their 200 minutes and 80 calls but then pretend like they are not really telemarketers
-Casually promote alcohol and drug use such as cocaine since "energy creates sales!" "Smile and dial!"

Multiview will tell you that your workday is 730am-430pm but will expect you to stay later everyday until the company hits their nearly impossible sales goal. Oh wait unless you have a kid you have to pick up, then you are excused. But wait, since most people they hire are young and don't, they know you don't have an excuse, since your life is Multiview now. Your team lead will try and make you feel bad if you do not stay later than 430pm (sometimes even until 6pm!) by thanking the brownnosers that have stayed late and making you feel like crap.


Multiview picks favorites and puts those down whom which do not fit within the "Multiview mold." Fake smiles and conformity is their specialty. If you are happy about spending 40k on a college degree so that you can spend 9 hours a day on a phone being grilled by your team lead, insulted by your team mates for having your own brain, and given no freedom from the ridiculous micro management, then Multiview is the place for you!

The Authors Rebuttal

AUTHOR: Bobby Jane - (United States of America)

POSTED: Sunday, November 27, 2011

Dear Mr./Ms. I assume too much:

I am the person who wrote the complaint back in 2009. I on a whim decided to see how many complaints were against this company because there was only one at the time that I wrote the complaint. The fact that there are now over 25 says a lot about the deception of this company; the proof is right here!

So let me clear up a few things for you since you sound a tad bit confused:

#1: I neither work for Multiview or am a customer but did read your literary tirade. Other than your obviously poor literary ability and foul use of the English language, what gives you the right to assume you know me or anything about this company after admitting to the fact that you have nothing to do with them and have never worked for them before?

#2: Why did you read my complaint anyway? Did you randomly wake up and decide you would read a valid complaint by an ex-employee of a company you know nothing about?

#3: The only advice I can offer is to grow up and be realistic of the real world. I am not asking for your advice. The real world is what you make of it. If you allow a company to treat you like crap they will continue to do so. I out of the goodness of my heart wanted to warn people about this company yet in return you have made invalid statements against me when I am standing up for people that want to learn about the good and the bad before investing a considerable amount of time in this company, which I did and obviously still am.

#4: Mr. 4 year degree I am a female, dont assume you know anything about me, or what Im talking about unless you decide to get the courage to actually work at this place yourself which according to your rebuttal sounds like the perfect job for you.

#5: Learning to hack it in the real world takes time.  Gee, so glad you made it apparent to tell me that because I would have been lost without you! Once again you know nothing about me nor were you there when I experienced the hell that this company put me through.

You obviously are the kind of person who does not have very high hopes for yourself because if you did you wouldnt be wasting your time writing this simple-minded rebuttal you call advice. Nor would you be standing up for a company that has to brainwash their employees in order for them to work there. Multiview also hires about 25 people at a time because they know the majority of their employees are not stupid enough to actually stay there for too long. My advice to you is to realize that the only person who needs a considerable amount of luck is yourself.

Rice

It Sounds Like...

AUTHOR: Giselle - (USA)

It sounds like to me the author *is* growing up and learning about the "real world" and that there are some companies out there a person simply may want to avoid.  There are many complaints on just this website alone about this company, so I think its less a case of them taking a chance on the employee, and more of the employee taking a chance on THEM!  There was no need to insult the author for trying to warn others as to the working environment/conditions of this place.  I too have no connection with this company but I certainly would not be seeking employment with them, based on what I have read about them on this website and others.

Dear Ex-Multiview Employee,

I neither work for Multiview or am a customer but did read your literary tirade.   The only advice I can offer is to grow up and be realistic of the real world.  Every company, regardless of the services offered, has to sell....

Do not blame the company that took a chance of you Mr. 4 year degree....   Learning to hack it in the real world takes time and I wish you the best of luck.  Obviously you need it.
