This report is true to many others I have read and makes me wonder how many newbies would apply if they knew what was going to happen to them at this company. Internet dissemination of rumors does not seem to put much of a damper on their behavior. Assuming most applicants know what they are in for, it suggests a kind of desperation or madness on the part of the applicants. I would be morbidly curious to read a psych study of them given how eager they are for such a punishing, low paying experience.
