I worked for Eon Systems for less than a week.\r
\r
The moment I walked into the place and did my interview with a woman named Veronique, I immediately recognized that the books on their shelves were written by L. Ron Hubbard, the founding father of the cult of Scientology.\r
\r
I am bias towards Scientology, yes, but I wanted to start earning a paycheck again so I had no problem setting aside my differences with their religion as long as there would be no issues involving it being brought up in the workplace.\r
\r
I was told that, on top of their horrible pay rate (anywhere from $8.77 up to $13.50 an hour, depending on production. Unless you're one of the managers who gets a nice steady salary), I was told that I'd have to go through three weeks of paid training at $8.75 an hour, followed by a week long ""internship"" complete with job shadowing. No biggie, it's just training. I can handle that.\r
\r
What they didn't inform me is that their three weeks of ""training"" turned out to be a bunch of Scientology worksheets. They were making me take their classes. The entire time I was there, I didn't learn a single thing about the job that they had hired me on to do. It was all Scientology this and Scientology that.\r
\r
I will never recommend anyone to work for a company that pushes their religious views on anyone.
