I am a proud employee of GSI and have been for years. Kris Schwenkmeyer is a very professional and generous employer. We receive union representation and work in a nice environment. I feel bad you are so unhappy.

Apparently, GSI stands for Gordon and Schwenkmeyer, Inc (Mike and Steve Gordon, Chris/Kris Schwenkmeyer). Similar to others here, GSI has called us several times so far, with never a voicemail message ever left up to the present, and always from their 858-496-210x series of phone numbers or else 858-427-9955. We've been on the FTC's National Do Not Call Registry for several years running. In case the phonecalls GSI increasingly makes are outside of the FTC NDNCR's complaint-enforcement jurisdiction, we may have to seriously consider contacting the local Division of the FBI (fbi.gov/sandiego ), to get further effective action against these borderline-harassment "fundraising" calls. One of GSI's given addresses is 9620 Chesapeake Dr., San Diego, CA 92123, which happens to be a close <1/2 hour driving-distance Southeast from this San Diego FBI office. So far as we could tell, nearly identical calls from GSI have been reported online at whocalled.us/lookup/8584962100 , callercenter.com/858-496-2107.html , 800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-858-496-2107 , whocalled.us/lookup/8584962107 , whycall.me/858-496-2107.html , 800notes.com/Phone.aspx/1-858-427-9955 and callerr.com/8584279955 . So which new GSI number will we have to report to the FBI or to the proper legal authorities next??

I worked at GSI and our company does not receive any of the money donated.. we get paid by the hour.. no commision.. just an extra dollar or two and i literally mean 1 dollar or 2. Its perfectly fine to not want these calls but to go one talking mess about something you truely know nothing about is ridiculous. But hey to each his own. I pray your ignorance doesnt spread.

I am an ex employee of GSI, and Nikki is speaking the truth. The fact is, they have a system that auto dials all donors, multiple times a day. They block the companys number on most of the first calls out in each file that is run. And they run those files  several times daily. and they could care less if you are blind & bedbound, they keep on rotating the same numbers around the center, even though it was dispositioned already. I was trained that as long as we didn't reveal the the names of the organizations, it went back in cue, especially if you were not the person we were trying to reach. So this is how you have to get them to stop... stay nice long  to get the company to reveal the name, never say you are on the  DNC  (they'll say it doesnt apply, and Keep on going with there pitch), as soon as they reveal, simply state in a very upset tone" take me off your lists" (calling, mail, email,
once a year) you never let them go into there pitch because, they will disposition your call in the system as a "NO PLEDGE" ,because you entertained  the message we were allowed to," phone rape" you because you were sweet enough to let us get it out, not knowing doing so, would mean to us YES, even though you politely said no. after all you wouldnt be on the phone still if you
didn't want to give. But bacj to how to stop them...asj for tge charities website and contact numbers, and with a big stink threaten to report there a***s. The DNC, Emilys List, and the DSCC, taje those complaints seriously. pitch, they make sure

Telemarketer
So, that's who S. Gordon is. I've learned two lessons from this unpleasant experience. Never give money to a charity if you don't plan on giving for the rest of your life and let the answering machine do its job. The answering machine likes listening to telemarketers. It's good at it, is always patient, does not have food on the oven, has no blood pressure issues, no hormones, no opinions and never sleeps. My answering machine will always respond to Gordon & Schwenkmeyer Inc. in exactly the same way. It doesn't care what they say. It doesn't know about money or abortions or baby seals or climate change. Sit back and let it do its job.

Nikki, you have a severe borderline personality disorder that displays itself in your online ranting. I don't like telemarketing, but it is an honest profession for many. You obviously have some self-image issues if you worked there.  Your a disgruntled employee, who under other circumstances, might grab a shot gun and return to the office you were fired from an kill everyone in sight. Luckily for many your hate-filled diatribes are relegated to cyberspace. Get a life, like someone else recommended.

Wow. Anger issues? I think so. Fundraising is a legal and time honored profession in this country. Most of the non-profit agencies and organizations that benefit our  society operate exclusively via fundraising and much of that is done over the phone.  Those who make their living in this way deserve respect for putting up with the crankiness and nasty attitudes of people like you. No one should have to deal with that, no matter how stingy they wish to remain. When your phone rings, be nice to whomever is on the other end.

Yo, kill Nikki - Wazzup, dude? You say get an honest job? From your reply, you seem to be as low a person as you claim I am. Sorry, dude - such violent and senseless silliness you espouse. I am an honest person, doing an honest days work. How about you? What job do you have that is so "honest"? BTW, the whistle doesn't work. If you haven't the cajones to say "stop calling me," then what do you think a whistle will do? N-O-T-H-I-N-G. Sorry to burst your bubble, but better people than you ever will be have had better ideas about companies like gordon & schwenkmeyer to stop calling. A whistle is so passe, dude. I did getg a few chuckles out of your threats and innuendo, however, keep up the pseudo-anal retoric going, though. I dare you to call GSI and complain about me, jerk. Their address and phone number is: Gordon & Schwenkmeyer: 9620 Chesapeake Drive, San Diego, 92123-1369. 858-496-2100. I dare you, dude. All you know how to do is whine and complain where no one can contest your claims.

I got your generosity right here. It's called a whistle. Call me and I'll demonstrate. God made the whistle so we can communicate the simple concept STOP CALLING FOREVER. Don't get it the first time? Call back, I'll repeat.

Call center keeps all or almost all of the money donated. This is a SCAM from start to finish. You are a crook if you "work" there. Find honest work if you can.

Or deal with the consequences. IT'S ONLY GOING TO GET WORSE. Honest people have had it up to here with low life SCUM like you and so-called companies like this.

I work for them. It's a company called Gordon & Schwenkmeyer, inc. And they make their money off the good generosity of people like you. This is so they don't have to get real jobs and become rich, as they have. Just tell the poor smuck who calls you that Kris Schwenkmeyer sucks and you are filing a formal complaint with the client whose behalf the person is calling.

I'm sure they love you, too. Most people have a much more realistic take on places like Gordon & Schwenkmeyer. After finding out that most of the money they contribute goes to the company, and not the client, most people would rather go online and contribute that way. Internet contributing is a much more honest and efficient way to contribute. I'd say that you are not a donor, but rather one of the brainwashed employees of Gordon & Schwenkmeyer. I will never give to any organization over the phone, having worked for Gordon & schwenkmeyer inc. for many years. I don't care who is running or who wins, just that I get myshare of the money. You need to wake up and smell the voting machine.

Bretts a nice guy who is being pressured by Schwenkmeter. On the other hand, the manager for the San Diego office has a dubious history, whose name is Cisco Hunter. Schwenkmeyer fired Steve Gordon under very discusting circumstances so she could hire a mentally challenged neo-hitler like manager. Then they fired almost all employees who had been there for any length of time (So schwenk could continue her lavish lifestyle because donations are down). It's a less-than-honorable company with an atmosphere one notch above sweatshop telemarketing. Hopefully it will go under soon. Dante said the lowest circle of Hell is reserved for slime like Schwenkmeyer and Hunter. I agree.

They don't care about how you feel. All they care about is the dollars you give. Most of the people who work there are former addicts and criminals who are barely educated. Many of them have never voted in an election before, and some have never had a legitimate job before. Tell them you'll contribute $100 if they take your name off those lists agree to it, then when the envelope comes, send it back with a note saying you never made any agreement of this kind. You might also say "I am upset that this kind of thing still happens and I am contacting this grop to make a formal complaint." That will get them to stop.

The address to Gordon & Schwenkmeyer is:

Gordon & Schwenkmeyer, Inc.
300 N Sepulveda Boulevard
El Segundo, CA 90245-4472

I hope this helps.

Do what I have told people to do when the company calls - tell them you will contribute $100 if they wil remove your name from their calling list, but will not do so if you get another call. When they call back to confirm, say yes I agreed to that amount, then confirm that they made a note to take you off their list. When the envelope comes to your house, either throw the enveope away or send it back, saying you never made a pledge, certtainy not a $100 one. That will stop them from calling you. I know it's dirty, but it's even dirtier that the company continues to call while nobody really wants them to.

I just looked up the DNC and Gordon & Schwenkmeyer,Inc. That company recieved over 2 million dollars so your donation certainly wouldn't be missed by them. Look up Gordon & Scwenkmeyer, Inc. andd you'll see some very interesting details about that company. Owned and run by slimeballs.

Thanks. I heard that the owner just showed up one day and surreptitiously without much cause, fired the old manager, then later hired a pseudo-nazi to replce the old manager. A series of firings happened, so much so that now the company has an almost entire office run by a group of semi-literrate ex-drug rehab lackeys who can barely function in society? I got this from a former employee who was in a position of authority.

Why would you change your political views over phone calls? Seems pretty ignorant.

Political Call
It's just political fund raising, and it's quite effective. Many donors that support nonprofits and political parties prefer to give that way because they understand the importance of this kind of fund raising, they've worked in phone banks for political candidates to help get them elected (look at Obama's campaign), it's an easy for them to give to the cause they support, etc. If it bothers you so much just don't answer the phone or politely tell them you're not interested and to have a good day. How often when your worthless calls come in is it ever anymore important than getting a candidate you support elected? I live in California and am thankful Jerry Brown has people doing this to help him win because a handful of political calls are a lot better than Meg Whitman. Quit getting your panties in a bunch, it's not that big a deal.

Political Call
I worked for the Sacramento office 916 569 1740, and the company is really crossing the line on badgering donors, who may give to a specific cause or candidate , but then find themselves being called literally once or twice a week , and on some occasions twice a day by the two offices. The list are screwed up and if one or more in the same household give , then they get double calls.  I agree with their causes and some clients, but the calling of the proven donor list to death is out of control. Current employees tell me that they are really pushed to get credit/debit cards over the phone. Some of their clients are, DNC, United Farm Workers Union, CA Demo Pary, Sens. Boxer, Murray, Colorado Demo Party, New York Cares. Do a google search.  Also see how much of the monies raised go to the specific charity and to GSI. Some of the figures will upset some. Owner Kristen Schwenkmeyer and her husband Jim Weiss are hacks in state legislature for Darrell Steinberg . If you get calls from them and give even $10 expect a blizzard of calls. Many have to change their numbers to get out from under the harassment . Don't give and politely ask to be removed from their list. The Sacramento office is headed by Brett Carter.
