As a current employee at LCN, I just want to clear up a few things as I have discovered that the only things I have found when I search the company on Google are negative. Hopefully there's someone out there that is still being harassed by us that will see this and find it helpful. PLEASE, if you want us to stop calling you, all you have to do is take 5 seconds to ask us to take you off the call list. If you just try to mess with me, sit there breathing into the phone or immediately scream obscenities and then hang up I have to mark you as "Not available" and your number WILL go back into the system and you WILL be called again (multiple times). Yes, I understand calls like these are annoying. I get them myself, too. But please don't forget that I am also a human, not a robot, and you should treat me as such. You were ultimately the one who submitted your own information some way or another and you should be aware of the fact that MANY companies today will retain and sell that information again and again. For those of you on here that are saying "telemarketers are the scum of the earth and they're all out to get me blah blah blah" first of all let me ask you something, did you think I chose this job because I was genuinely interested in it? The way the economy is now I am lucky to have a job at all, especially one that pays more than minimum wage. Do you think I really give a damn about saving you money on your auto insurance? Nope, I sure don't. Don't treat me like [***] just because I have a different job than you do. As for the company itself, sure, yes it's shady, it's a telemarketing company. What do you expect? For those that are saying you'll sue me because I violated the law for calling you and you were on the "Federal DNC List" all I have to say is LOL. What we do is considered a "survey" and we don't actually sell anything. You could try taking legal action but it'd just be a huge waste of your time. Some of the employees may be rude or incompetent but like most call centers, they will hire just about anyone. I myself was given a short 5 minute phone call and told I was hired right then and there. Places like these obviously have a high turnover rate. Personally I have no problems with any of the managers, they were actually quite helpful in talking me through my first day and helping me resolve problems. I get to sit in my pajamas on the couch drinking coffee while I call random people, so for now it's a good enough job for me. :)
At the end of the day who the [***] cares it's a phone call that you could either hang up or keep talking the art of telemarketing is finesse and in order to get "finessed" you have to be less intellectual then the "finesse"
After reading all of these comments it's just plain to see you need a topic if discussion because you could go to the main website and it showed me exactly what the [***] they are.
