During the spring of last year I heard a scary tale from a friend about a local business that had hired her. She was enticed by a high rate of pay with flexible hours for school.
I did some investigating and found a lot of disgruntled employees of a networking business called Vector Marketing.
Vector Marketing is in charge of the sales of a American made high end knife and although there has been a lot of trash talking of Vector Marketing by disgruntled employees Vector has done nothing illegal nor is it a scam. But a lot of applicants have called ethical fouls in terms of there recruiting and hiring techniques.
Many claim to be mislead about the specifics about the job until the last day of training.
I am publishing these interviews in effort to educate other young applicants will be informed about the job they are applying for. All interviews were done in Oregon, so it does not cover a national trend. I am protected by the American Freedom of Speech Act. Not all interviews are negative. If you are in Oregon and would like to be interviewed please contact me.

  • Btw, the factory is the only thing that keeps the town where the knives are made alive. So think about that too. Without the sales reps, they wouldn't have jobs. Without a factory, the sales reps wouldn't have jobs.

  • @Hawke213X They need to dissolve Vector and sell off of their good quality knives in stores with comparisons to other brands. Welcome to the free market and freedom of speech. And if their factory can only stay open do to unethical sales tactics well sorry.

  • Actually, this video is very inaccurate. I have a training today and did one yesterday.

    1. They do not use the term "H.M.3."

    2. YOU took your list of names home, not the trainer.

    3. It IS a good product. Period.

    4. This video is OLD. Things have changed in the way they do things.

  • @Hawke213X You're welcome

  • @7footballfanatic7 What research did you do? I'm not attacking you, but think did you do more than watch videos on youtube?

  • i used to work for vector and so did my best friend. I recruited him and he was under my name. My best friend reached the point of assistant manager and earned 50% of everything he sold. He sold approximately 70,000 dollars worth of kitchen cutlery. Since he was under my name, i earned 3% of everything he sold also. I sold approximately 17,000 worth of cutco. Cutco Is a very good way to make money but its not a life long career. it is NOT A SCAM, it just gives you back what you put into it.

  • @ikefootball75 lolol good one

  • My girlfriend worked for Vector, luckily she was a secretary so she did not do sales. Either way they were a fly by night operation. My bro almost got caught up in this, I called Bullshit and he cancelled

  • Vector lies!! THEY COVER UP THEIR BAD THINGS (like this video) WITH POSITIVE THIGNS THEY PAY THEIR EMPLOYEES TO WRITE. LOOK IT UP! THEY HAD LAWSUIT ABOUT HOW THEY WERE PAYING THEIR EMPLOYEES TO SAY GOOD THINGS!!

    BAD DONT WORK OR LISTEN TO THEIR COMMENTS!! THEY ARE ALL VECTOR EMPLOYEES!!
