: : : Tell anyone you can to stay as far away from this company as possible! My husband recently accepted a "job" with these assholes. They promised him everything but ownership of the so called company. He was told that it was a layed back environment and he could pretty much do as he pleased. They promised that after his "expensive" training he would be given his own office that he was in charge of, bullshit. They brainwashed him into thinking that he would make so much money, and advancement would only take six weeks. The "trainers" told him that the perfume they were selling was factory over runs, that they could sell there product in a "unique" bottle from france...They gave them rediculous lingo to go by calling goals "Rhinos", and referred to selling on the street as "dropping" the product.
: : Never once did they ask for personal information, such as verification of actual identification...Never knew where he really lived, if he had another job, where he could be contacted, etc. His first day, he did bring home 150 dollars, cash. This made me curious as to why it was cash, and not in the form of a check, he said they told him they didn't have them on a payroll because they "paid for their EXPENSIVE training" What the Hell ever! After that, no more money. Needless to say he quit. after looking on the internet, I found that David Babb and his "associates" are being investigated in multiple state for IRS fraud and tax evasion. I wish someone would do something to these assholes and put them out of business permanantly, but...they will continue to brainwash the new members of their "cult", and relocate from city to city as well as screw people over on a daily basis. If any of you are questioning a position at the Manchester location of "Gateway Management" selling Scentura Creations, DON'T!

: : : THIS COMPANY IS A SCAM! BE CAREFUL. STOP WHILE YOU STILL CAN THEY WILL SUCK EVERYTHING OUT OF U. TRUST ME I KNOW FROM EXPERIENCE. I WORKED FOR 5 WEEKS IN THEIR SOCALLED "TRAINING PROGRAM". IT HAS GOTTEN ME SO BEHIND ON MY BILLS AND EVERYTHING ELSE. IM GLAD TO HAVE READ THIS WHEN I DID I ONLY WISH I SAW IT SOONER. PEDDLING PERFUME FOR A LIVING DOES NOT PAY OFF NO MATTER WHAT THEY TELL YOU!! THIS IS ILLEGAL AND WHEN YOU GET ARRESTED OR FINED BY THE POLICE THE COMPANY WILL NOT STAND BEHIND YOU! YOU DO NOT HAVE A SOLICITING LICENSE AND THE COMPANY CANNOT CARRY ONE FOR EVERY PERSON IN THE OFFICE. THEY WILL TELL YOU THEY DO! YOU NEED A LICENSE IN EVERY CITY YOU SOLICIT IN. THEY WILL TELL YOU THAT U ARE NOT SOLICITING BUT WHY DO U RUN FROM PARKING LOT TO PARKING LOT HOPING TO NOT GET CAUGHT? I HOPE THAT WHOEVER READS THIS TAKES IT SERIOUSLY THIS COMPANY IS A JOKE!
: : : I ALSO WAS IN THE TRAINING PROGRAM FOR 2 WEEKS. THEY MADE IT SOUND VERY PROFESSIONAL AND LED ME TO BELIEVE I WOULD OWN MY OWN OFFICE. WHO IS LARRY HAHN ANYWAY? JUST A NAME THEY HAVE COME UP WITH? I KNEW SOMETHING WAS WRONG WHEN THEY WERE TELLING US TO LIE TO SELL THE PRODUCT. EX:: WE JUST GOT BACK FROM A FRAGRANCE SHOW.
: : : WE HAVE NEVER BEEN TO A SHOW NOR HAS ANYONE IN THE COMPANY. THEY ARE NOTHING MORE THAN MOTIVATIONAL SPEAKERS. GETTING EVERYONE EXCITED AND HOPING TO BECOME SUCCESSFUL WILL NOT HAPPEN. PLEASE OPEN YOUR EYES AND COME TO REALITY THIS IS A SCAM. THIS IS ALSO DANGEROUS THINK ABOUT STAYING OUT ALL HOURS OF THE NIGHT PEDDLING SOME CHEAP COLONGE FOR A FEW DOLLARS. THIS CAN BE DANGEROUS!

Here is some more info for about these a holes.
We are in N.J. THe ad was in the Bergen Record under general help in the classifieds. It states this:
" A little wild" "A Little Crazy"
Expanding company needs help full time. Call Bill.
Upon going to the interview however I found that his name is not Bill. He told me it wasn't and some B.S. excuse but woouldn't tell me his real name. The whole story line everyone here is talking about is 100% true. The office is located at: 402 Harrison Ave. in Harrison N.J. The number is 201-991-4006 and 201-955-3225. There is also another office in Kearny N.J. on 1138 midland ave in Kearny. I went to the first and second interview and did one day of training before i realized something was wrong and looked here. Thank You for helping people like me avoid making a big mistake. I almost past up another job i had been waiting for, for this job until I read this.
Shut these MOFO'S down!
