I’m not sure where the company is now, but last I heard, they were causing trouble down in NYC. Just keep pressing and spreading the word about their practices.

Thank you for your story. We too have been taken advantage of and have been trying to collect for 4 years now. If anyone has some updates appreciate the comments.

I have heard the same for New York as well. If you have any information, I would appreciate if you passed it along to myself!

Time to start up this thread again I believe. Lots of people – lots of them – left out in the cold by Carissa. There will be more information coming soon – lots of people in Canada looking for her.

I worked with Silver Lining awhile ago and it’s sad to see that nothing has changed. Same story of clients and staff not being paid and so on. Half-truths (or no truths more accurately) was the norm then too including to clients. No showing at meeting after meeting and lame excuses. Staff turnover was non-stop and people often agreed to work for nothing at first to “gain experience” so prob didn’t get paid at all before “quitting.” And it seemed “offices” were popping up and down all the time. It comes from the top…and includes a book about how to make your first million. Hmmm…right. I also threatened a lawyer and did finally get paid. Hope you do too. Good for you for not keeping quiet.

Jon, this is the first I’ve heard of this, clearly late to the party. I’m so sorry for your experience with non-payment. For the record, I was very happy with your work and happy to pay for it. Hope it works out for you and we’d definitely hire you again for work for ZOË.
