I too, have fallen prey to the Norvergence ISR pay scam. Here's how it went. I recieved a call about a position with the company and proceeded to set up the interview. In that interview I was informed that my pay would be $40K annually with the ability to make tons more via commissions. Pay was also given bi-weekly.

I was also told that there were two different pay scales and that I was recieving the better of the two. The other was at 30K annually FYI. I was taught when i was younger to pay attention to things when your putting your signature on them, so naturally I read things through on the paperwork that I signed. Now i get to training. In training it was explained that that 40K breaks down into two things. Your normal hourly rate of $6.85 an hour(what a fu*&*n joke) and an "attendance bonus". This attendance bonus could be given or taken away at managements discretion.

Company policy states( you find this out post-hire) that this means pretty much anything. Wording in this paperwork you're given is vague for the most part. Some of the things they were clear about was lateness. This I can understand. Losing some money and getting in trouble for being late is business. Stealing 2/3 of your paycheck at their disretion is ridiculous. I live about an hour from this place and would normally wake about 3 hours early to compensate for geting ready , and travel time. Out my door by 6 am for an hour drive. There were times in my short employ there that i was still late regardless. One of them was for a blowout on the parkway on the way there.

When I appealed the loss of the "attendance bonus" on that occasion I was told I needed physical proof. Asking what that was, I was then told - a AAA help report, or a policeman's report that he stopped to assist. I said how about the actual blown out tire. That won't do, I was told. So, all in all this company has left a bad taste with me, and I'm currently filing paperwork with the state labor board to have them investigated and try and get the $2096 they claimed as my lost attendance bonus.

If there's anyone else who has had this happen, please come forward and file the same way I did. Maybe together we can shed dome light on an otherwise shady company. There are other bits of knowledge about them i have learned while working there, but that's businees law. I just want what's mine. That house of cards called Norvergence will eventually fall b/c of their own practices.

Better late than never!!

AUTHOR: Reid - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Sunday, May 09, 2004

Mike writes, "Doesn't it strike you as mildly ironic that these Ex-employees are screaming scam and bashing norvergence AFTER THEY WERE FIRED"?????

NO! What strikes me as ironic, is how any company could allow so many complaints to be accumulated against them, while honestly wanting consumers to believe they are running an ethical business.

What better time to come foward then when you are fired? I've literally held well over fifteen jobs in my life and have heard many complaints, by many different co-workers, until that is, the word union is mentioned.

For some very strange reason, this word is not very popular among the people that seem to complain the most about their work place. Employees of companies are often afraid of threats and retribution, and that's the very reason why many don't come foward until after they've been terminated.

This fact however, proves absolutely nothing, for it seems you have done the exact same thing. If you don't mind my asking; why are you trying to discredit the many complaints against this company, with absolutely nothing, if you are no longer employed at that company? You obviously have something to gain, by wasting much time trying to defend this company so ill equipped.

C'mon Mike, this many people can't be writing fabricated stories, as you have stated. Even if they were, for this company to show such disinterest in acknowledging and resolving the many complaints against them, is not helping their cause.

People now have the right to feel as though they have been scammed and there is nothing this company can do about it, but finally come out of hiding and start doing some explaining. Avoidence and excuses, do not count for anything. Typical shill rebbutal, in that it has absolutely nothing to do with anything. Just posted to further aggravate their victims.

I can't wait until the day our president finally decides to clean house and rid this country of the many scams that only linger. A good start would be, by holding individuals that perpetuate these scams fully responsible for their own activities and not the company that they work for.

Right now as I am writing, it's far too easy for any business to just close shop, file for bankruptcy, reorganize and immediately reopen it's doors again, only under a different name.

I bet by holding employees of companies personally responsible for their own actions, it would definitely lessen the amount of scams and or fraudulent businesses. This would also rid the planet of the many shills, that address reports and tries to discredit them with nothing but excuses.

If you were to steal money from your place of work, you would probably go to jail. How is working for a fraudulent business any different? Fraud is fraud and it does not matter where it's commited. IT'S A CRIME!! If you are involved with any crime, in any way, you need to stop hiding behind your employer and be held fully accountable.

That's why I am so glad that this website exists. It's like Raid and Black Flag, in that it slowly gets rid of cockroaches and somewhat has the ability to start a domino effect. Take care everyone.

P.S. 1.Mike, what was the point in your rebuttal, other then to insult people and try to smear the MANY complaints, with nothing but excuses? 2.If you were making such good money, working for a legitimate company, what made you quit? I don't know, call me stupid, but it just doesn't seem to make any sense.

purpose of this website to help expose what really goes on at these ripoff companies

AUTHOR: Stuart - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Saturday, May 08, 2004

This is in response to Mike.

It should be evident to Mike who's evidently
functioning with half a brain the reason why
ex-employees don't say anything until after they're fired is they're fearful of retaliation by
Norvergence while working over there in this tight
job economy.

And let me say this Mike that burger flipping would be a big improvement over Norvergence who runs one of the biggest scam operations around. There are other websites besides Ripoff that give even more information on Norvergence showing what a big scam it really is.

Aside from what this imbecile, Mike, posted, there
is a question about the 500 layoffs that
Norvergence recently did. I'd like to see postings
from the people who were laid off whether they were with Norvergence for over or under six months to allow Norvergence to avoid unemployment insurance costs.

One more suggestion for Mike. Read all the reports
posted on this Website including the ones by
customers of Norvergence. Read about the specific
promises made by this company that it knew it
wasn't going to keep (otherwise known as a scam
Mike). Read about the arrogant attitude displayed
in Patricia's report, Norvergence's Human Resource
rep. Read the other websites regarding complaints
against Norvergence (I'll make it easy for you.
Just do a Google search for Norvergence
complaints and you'll get an eyeful).

So Mike it just takes "burger flipping experience"
to work for that "great company" Norvergence. What
a ridiculous statement to make. "No job is
completely secure" - truer words couldn't have
been spoken about Norvergence. From the way you
sound Mike, it wouldn't surprise me that you're
a shill for Norvergence. How did you happen to
get over to this website in the first place?

So if it disturbs you Mike about all the former
employee complaints about this company, then wake
up and come to your senses. That's part of the
purpose of this website to help expose what really
goes on at these (ripoff) companies. If you can't
come to terms with that, then go back to sleep and
dream about your wonderful Norvergence service.

AUTHOR: Mike - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Friday, May 07, 2004

Doesnt it strike you as mildly ironic that these Ex-employees are screaming scam and bashing norvergence AFTER THEY WERE FIRED?????

you werent posting anything when you were employed, why now???

I know why, because your burger king burger flipping experience you were able to get into a great company and be trained and make $60k + a year, and now that you've been dismembered from the company, you have to go back to $6/hour flippin them burgers, lol... thats life, deal with it. No job is completely secure, you should know that. It doesnt mean you can fabricate stories about the company that have NO truth.

what a joke people. norvergence is not a scam, but I do agree to some degree about their customer service...they need to get their act together. But as far as the solution goes, it works...

Ive had the service about 2 yrs now and the only complaint i have is the customer service, they are nice when you can reach them, but they dont have the access to make certain changes that a customer may need done. However, the CS rep i spoke to couple weeks ago said they are revamping the CS dept, and are going to fix all the issues they are having.

just my 2 cents!!!

Taping conversations

AUTHOR: Stuart - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Friday, May 07, 2004

In response to Reid:

First I want to thank Reid for his response.

I want to compare (actually contrast would be the
better word here) a company I had worked for against Norvergence.

The other company would tape record (through my
supervisor) a few conversations I've had with
customers during the course of the month. The actual purpose of recording the conversations was to see what I did right or wrong and used to educate me. These recordings were never used against any customer.

Being that the other company would announce to the
call-in customer that the conversation may be taped for monitoring purposes to assure quality control is legitimate if used for that purpose, but it shouldn't be a substitute for thorough training on product or service knowledge which my
former company seemed to rely on (especially when
they kept laying off people).

With Norvergence they rely upon their employees to
let the customer know that the conversation may be
tape recorded. In addition I've never known
Norvergence to use these tape recordings to train
their employees with and I suspected that they
used them against customers as part of their
overall fraudulent operations to try to intimidate
customers (if any employee has further information
on this, please post it in).

So there are companies out there who use this tool
legitimately. Unfortunately there are fraudulent
companies who use them otherwise and whether or
not it should keep on going or be modified or
regulated should be up to the public.

PS I hope everything works out for Reid.

#8 Consumer Suggestion

In response to Stuart. ..Don't ever be fooled by anyone who says that the purpose for tape recording

AUTHOR: Reid - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Thursday, May 06, 2004

Hey there Stuart, You don't know who I am, but I have an answer to the question you posted in regards to telephone recordings and what happens to them.

I have no ties with this company, nor have I ever done business with them, however, I have been scammed by the fraudulent company that sold me the John Beck mentoring garbage and they are now using the tape recorded conversation against me in a credit card dispute battle.

Many companies today tape record telephone conversations and use them as sales and or service agreements (contracts). This becomes proof for them, that a customer has agreed to certain terms that has been set fourth.

There are many companies today, and I do mean MANY companies today, that use this particular form of contract, and I say, it's a very shady practice.

Don't ever be fooled by anyone who says that the purpose for tape recording telephone conversations are for quality assurance purposes. That's nonsense! If companies would take the time to properly screen their employees, pay decent wages, and train their employees correctly, they wouldn't have to worry about evesdropping.

I don't care what anyone says, there's no reason for this practice, other than trapping people into verbal contracts, which often contain clauses up the wa-zu. These contracts are cleverly disguised traps where a product or service is only a cover.

Many if not all "mentoring" programs today, resort to using this form of contracts, because it is the easiest way for any company to literally steal money.

They say whatever it is someone wants to hear and whatever necessary to get someone to cough up thousands of dollars, often do not live up to any of their fruadulent sales pitches and frudulent claims, but still think they deserve your money, because you have agreed to their service and a service has been rendered, regardless if what has been agreed upon and what was rendered are from two entirely different worlds.

I'm sorry for kind of veering of the subject here, but I kind of figured it all out, by being scammed by the John Beck team. As I have mentioned many times before, I am presently in a dispute battle with this company, which has clearly engaged in fraud, and they are attempting to use every ridiculous thing possible to steal my money.

So far, it has costed me hundreds of dollars in postage, printing costs, lost wages, computer ware, time that can never be replaced, etc, etc. The only items that they have submitted in their defence, were a few documents, all in which have nothing to do with the reason for my dispute.

Some of the documents were signed contracts, mailing invoices, receipts, etc, etc, and a few other goodies, that would all be nice, if any of them had anything to do with my reason for my dispute.

Take notice, that I have not once denied enrolling in their program in any of my reports, so for them to even consider submitting these items, only proves everthing I've said about this fraudulent company being nothing but a trap.

I no longer agree with any company tape recording conversations and find any and all companies that use this method quite shady.

Once again, I apologize for ranting and rambling on about my experience, but I will continue to use every opportunity I possibly can, to warn and protect the public, to avoid the John Beck Free and Clear Program and his fraudulent mentoring program. Until next time and believe me there will be a next time, take care cause I care, Aloha from Hawaii and God Bless.

P.S. Please view my report on the John Beck scam and direct as much traffic as you possibly can to it, including the scammers themselves. Any and all media company, attorney, FTC official, etc, etc, who may be interested in exposing this scam and finally shedding some light on it, feel free to contact me throught this website.

#3 UPDATE EX-employee responds

Patricia's full of hot air!

AUTHOR: Stuart - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Thursday, April 22, 2004

Since I have first-hand knowledge of how Norvergence functions, I'm going to comment on Patricia's rebuttal.

(1) I have it in black and white from last year's
company literature and advertisement that the pay is definitely a salary and not just an "attendance
bonus." In case Patricia isn't familiar with the
definition of the term salary, my dictionary says
"a fixed compensation periodically paid to a person for regular work or services." The operating term here is "fixed" Patricia. You don't arbitrarily slash the pay by over 50% just because a person is late by a minute, for example. If you work 39 and 1/2 hours, then you get paid for that time under federal and state law, regardless of what Norvergence claims, and this matter should be brought to the state labor board and DOL's attention.

(2) In fact it doesn't matter whether you are late
or not because Norvergence will arbitrarily reduce
your pay anyway. I posted this in last year so I
don't need to repeat it. The time requirement is
simply a diversion since Norvergence doesn't
want to live up to its promises and is looking
for any means possible, whether legitimate or not,
to avoid paying a decent living wage let alone
any bonuses.

(3) Patricia claims to be from "Human Resources"
and it makes me wonder how much of her pay would
be docked if she were to arrive late for work?
Human resources is supposed to have a much better
attitude towards its workers than what Patricia is
showing here (doesn't it sound ridiculous
Patricia that documentation needs to be provided
for very minor lateness infractions?). Can Patricia explain how much money Norvergence is
losing to justify deducting over $600 from a
paycheck for a minute's lateness?

(4) It's Norvergence's style to keep employees
and customers in the dark. Every legitimate
business wants its employees, including Inside
Sales Representatives to know all they can about
the operations so that they can service the public
properly. Norvergence should be proud that its
employees are showing such an interest in business
systems and the other items because that's the
first natural step towards improving your value as
an employee and moving up the ladder.

(5) In regards to calls being recorded, here are
some questions:

(a) The quality appointments made by the ISR which
are recorded by him or her, are copies of those
recordings made available to the ISR?

(b) What does Norvergence do with those recordings
whether made by the ISR or somebody else?

(c) Dan's report indicate's that ISR's who weren't
making quota were pulled into a class presumably
for further training. I don't see anywheres from
anybody's report (including Patricia's rebuttal)
Norvergence pulling anybody for training from
saying the wrong thing on the phone (another way
to put this is that Norvergence is waiting for
something to go bad before they do anything about
it which may be too late - so much for monitoring). Does Norvergence intend to change
their operations in regards to this matter?

(d) Why doesn't Norvergence allow its ISRs to
confirm their appointments? This would prove to
the ISRs whether the appointment would be kept and
the ISRs should be permitted to contact the
prospect one more time after the appointment date
to see what the result was without the ISR having to fear for his or her job.

(6) It appears the reason no customer is unaware
that an outside financing company is receiving
payments is that many prospects are unawares of
this arrangement when they first sign up and only
learn afterwards that they signed an irrevocable,
five-year lease that payments are to be made to
the finance company when they try to stop payment
(does Norvergence proactively make all of its
prospects aware of this catch?).

(7) In regards to Patricia's point #3, this
distrust is a two-way street as there are a number
of items I haven't brought up in regards to
Norvergence. I know that Patricia is doing her
best to put a positive spin on Norvergence's
behalf (at least in this posting, she's focused on
Human Resource issues). Someday Patricia you will
see Norvergence for what it really is and I hope
it's not too late for you.

I will keep monitoring.

Facts about Norvergence

AUTHOR: Patricia - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Wednesday, April 21, 2004

Dan and Jason:

Point #1: As stated in your message, all ISRs are required to do is set appointments and be on time this is not a complicated directive. ISR training is for individuals who have been hired to set quality appointments for Screening Managers, who then go to the site and screen customer applicants to see if they qualify (i.e. have good enough credit, spend enough on technology and are in an engineering location to receive our product.

You were not hired to be an Installer, Screening Manager, Customer Service Rep or any other position at this company. You, again, were only hired to set appointments for technically trained managers to meet clients, thus, your questions regarding business systems, operations, protocols, technology, etc. would have been considered irrelevant to ISR training. If you had eventually been promoted to a higher position, that technical training would have been given to you. ISR training is not a time for our training staff to entertain If, then scenarios from new employees who do not have a grasp on company structure and concept.

Point #2: I have to be on time for work, and so do ISRs. I actually am incredulous that you would make excuses for being late. If you don't want to lose your attendance bonus, don't be late! Just like other companies, we require doctor's notes when employees are absent, Norvergence requires written documentation. Blown-out tires will not suffice.

Point #3: As at other companies, Norvergence records calls from ISRs to ensure the validity of appointments. Unscrupulous ISRs have on occasion set unwanted appointments with companies to meet their weekly quota. This hurts our sales reps, who go on these calls, wastes time, lowers productivity and annoys potential customers. Most companies record calls for quality control and training.

Point #4: ISRs are paid on qualified appointments. If a Screening Manager arrives at customer site who does not qualify for the solution, the ISR does not get paid for setting it. That is why it is so very important for ISRs to be well trained on what they need to ask customers during the initial phone call. The number of appointments an ISR gets paid on may very well drop if the ISR does not do his or her job well.

Point #5: Norvergence generates individual proposals for customers based on their spending, credit, usage, requirements, location and engineering, as do most other companies. In the proposals, we provide customers reduced costs for their services because we are one of the largest and fastest growing telecom agents, distributors and resellers of T1 and cellular access in the US. We then install the MATRIX box which enables the rerouting. Norvergence also matches customers with financing companies who receiving monthly payments from customers over and up to a five year term. All of this information is included in the paperwork Screening Managers present to customers, which customers retain for review and acceptance prior to moving forward with the deal. No customer is unaware that an outside financing company (a bank, for instance) is actually receiving the payments for their PBX or router hardware.

Point #6: Like many companies, Norvergence restructured its sales model. Screening Managers were twelve times more successful than ISRs at setting qualified appointments. We released 300 ISRs, approximately 50 of whom were re-hired into other departments. We held a job fair with over 20 local employers present to make contacts for future employment, as well as had the Department of Labor on hand to assist individuals who wished to file for unemployment.

Point #7: In today's world, there is no such thing as too much security. Norvergence employs a security department to protect employees as they go about their jobs. We appreciate their hard work and welcome their presence.

Norvergence aka "Boiler-Room"

AUTHOR: Dan - (U.S.A.)

POSTED: Friday, February 27, 2004

Ever see the movie Boiler Room? Want to work there? Go to Newark, NJ and apply for a job with Norvergence. I have never been treated so poorly by a "professional" company in my entire life.

It all started in the training regiment. If you do make it this far and have any educated questions about the company, don't expect them to be answered. Norvergence claims to be drastically reducing telecommunication costs for business owners with a product they call the "matrix" which is going to somehow eliminate line charges on not only the land lines, but the company cell phones as well. BIG SCAM! Oh, they claim to provide high speed internet access as well! Every question that I asked was not answered. All they would tell me is to make sure you set quality appointments for the outside sales representative. The good news is you get paid $1500 every two weeks, but during that time if you are late to work for just one minute, your pay declines to less than $500 for that same span!

Now came the fun part. First off, their high speed internet access is a complete joke. Their computers freeze every 5 minutes for minutes at a time. They give you a lead list that has been recycled about 2000 times and expect you to generate at least 10 quality appointments a week or you are fired. You actually have to record the decision maker on the phone telling you their name, title, company name, address, advise them to have their bills at the appointment, and you have to state the date of the appointment on tape and then you get credit. The good news is that come commission time and your expecting a fat paycheck for all of those quality appointments that you set, they somehow dwindle from about 20 in a 2 week span to like 4 and your paycheck looks nothing like you expected. And if you dare contact the businesses that you set the appointment with, you will be fired. Since they monitor your phones so closely, you better BEWARE!
So the good news came last week 2/24/04! Here we are calling up poor suckers and scamming them into appointments that they really don't realize could turn into a 5 YEAR LEASE WITH A BANK (NORV IS PRETTY SMART, THEY GET PAID RIGHT AWAY AND RUN WITH YOUR MONEY!). You couldn't help to notice security guards all over the office floor. Managers began tapping on anybodys back who wasn't exceeding weekly quota (but was indeed meeting it) and asking them to go in a classroom! And just like that they proved once again how much class they have when they fired 500 of 700 employees in one day! My point is, if you're looking for work, security, or a way to save on your telecommunication bills, DO NOT TURN TO NORVERGENCE FOR HELP!
