Experience:
I am not sure if this is exactly a devil corp, but I do believe that people should be aware.
TL: Don’t work for them. It’s a scam, and you’ll be scamming American citizens into purchasing a predatory fake health insurance that they can’t use anywhere. They make you sign paperwork that you have to pay some type of fee to work there. Also, the new money atmosphere is embarrassing.
Yesterday, I attended a “job interview” at US Health Advisors for the position of Business Development Manager.
Supposedly, they have 50 locations around the country. I attended the one in Tampa. When I arrived, I was greeted by a few receptionists, and there was one other candidate in the lobby as well. I assumed it was going to be some type of group interview, but when I was escorted into a presentation room, I was shocked to see 18 other individuals.
A woman gave us a debrief before the “main guy” came in. Her spiel was to convince us that going into sales is the right thing to do. This was my first red flag, and I need to be better at leaving on my first red flag because I would’ve saved myself the hour and a half that I was there.
A man named Austin walked in dressed head to toe in gaudy new money attire. Everyone was wearing flamboyant new money office clothes. I mean, the first presenter still had the price sticker on her shoes. I believe that is a requirement there to show off to potential employees that their lives are so amazing there. Another huge red flag.
During the presentation, Austin kept reiterating that if we came there for a specific job title, we should actually be interested in sales instead because we can make so much money. At the very end, he said that there are positions there that are salary, so I figured he was talking about the position I was there to interview for.
After the 30-minute brag presentation, we broke off into individual interviews. The recruiter that I had originally connected with on LinkedIn met up with me. He was very nice at first but hardly asked me any questions and then told me I’d be a great fit. He did a great job of not answering my questions directly, so I started to get a little bit more firm with my demand for a specific job description.
Just as I had figured, this was not a management position, but a sales position selling fake insurance. He told me that I would have the potential, if I met ridiculously high expectations, to be promoted to management.
The worst part is that it’s completely salary-based, and the recruiter asked me if I was willing to work a minimum of 65 hours a week Monday through Saturday, from 8 AM until 8 PM, and then hours on Saturday. I told him that I had prior obligations for church volunteering on two nights a week. The recruiter then got a snarky attitude with me and told me that if I wasn’t 100% sold on the Kool-Aid, I wasn’t the right candidate for them. Hilarious because two seconds prior, he told me that I was a great fit.
This is such a predatory company. Not only do they scam their clients, but they also scam most employees into making $13.90 an hour for working 65 hours a week. If all of the employees are making over six figures as they claim, the parking lot sure did not reflect six-figure income. I highly doubt that most of them would be driving older vehicles.
I saw someone else comment a few years ago, saying that they agreed to this position and they accidentally signed documents stating that they had to pay some type of fee to join and they wouldn’t give them a copy of the paperwork to bring to the lawyers."
