Please beware of this company and its ### like tactics. Everything about this company is shady. From its headquarters in Bermuda (search for it on google maps and it shows up as Hickory Stick which is a restaurant) probably to evade taxes, to its employees and management. Everything is crooked. They record phone calls without telling the other side - completely illegal. They tell you to massage the truth in a formal setting but tell you to outright lie in an informal setting. Its all about creating a false image and selling that. I keep reading "its sales, its sales, " "sales is not for everyone, " complete "rubbish". This puts sales to shame. If you do some research you'll realize other companies are selling the same conferences, Marcus Evans is just selling them for a higher price - effectively their main competitive advantage is their ability to create false value and sell that. If you call that sales then you should probably work at Marcus Evans and are a good fit. And thats the kind of people who work happily at Marcus Evans. Pretentious and empty. I was quite shocked when I saw some good reviews and then I realized that all the good reviews are by people who currently work at Marcus Evans which is obviously not from an objective point of view, but even then I was surprised because when I worked there I didnt know a single person who liked their job, they were working there because they had no other option. It's like a modern day sweat shop that operates on probability. You make 12o calls per day multiply that by x number of employees which equals such and such profit. What's strange is that this is a complaint board, yet there are positive remarks. I wont be surprised if Marcus Evans paid people to write these good reviews. Then I made an observation that most of the positive reviews are by email addresses or user names such as c005644 or www3322. This is a typical Marcus Evans strategy through which they disguise themselves. You will notice those unknown number calls. Why must such a prestigious organization hide their numbers. Too shady

People who want to attend their events should ask why people like Joel Shapiro from Timbervest choose to be on their red nocalls list (marcus evans has two: normal for angry companies and red for really angry I will sue you like now companies).

Do not buy from him. I answered an ad on Craigslist posted by MarcusEvans. Marcus had 2 front row hockey tickets. I met him downtown and paid him $2.000.00. Tickets were forged. Police are investigating and will shut him down.

DO NOT WORK HERE. This company is run very badly. I was fired for no reason. I have a medical condition that makes it hard for me to work in an office. I told them I would work from home and they fired me.

I hate this company. The shoes I bought from them fell apart in the rain. The store sales person said the could fix it but it would cost $50.00. They say it's my fault.
