Meh, I could go on and on for hours about what I know about Quixtar.

"Ask me about working for a cult-like pyramid scheme" is a thread that I would be very interested in reading

It wouldn't be very interesting, though. Alticor itself has a pretty typical work environment. Eeveryone working there knows the history of the company and most are well aware of what goes on "out in the field". Other than going through a detailed explanation of their business model during orientation, there is no "indoctrination" into the Amway culture or anything.

The only thing that was annoying was the regular tours being held for IBO's. Once every couple of weeks everything had to be "just so" because some group of IBO's from Tennessee or California was going to be coming through next Tuesday. Any sort of contact with IBO's was surreal. They were all way too happy to be wandering around a sea of cubicles in some bland 30-year old office building.

I don't know how many times I was asked by an IBO why I worked at Amway for an hourly wage when I knew firsthand about this fantastic business opportunity. I'd have to explain nicely that it wasn't for me, etc. They were constantly recruiting.
