I have never experienced the morale of a company as low as it is at Apptricity. Even on my first day of employment, I was approached by several employees and informed of the general level of unhappiness. Were they ever correct. Once you are hired on as a sales rep, you are expected to deliver immediately. There is no training offered other than a few pages of marketing collateral printed off of the website. Marketing is supposed to provide some lead generation, however, there is no budget allocated to make this effective, thus, you are relegated to cold calling companies w/ a product that no one knows of and which you've had virtually no training. Although the average sales cycle for its products is 9 months or so, you are on a much shorter leash than that.
There is absolutely no reason to ever miss work. If you have a child/children, do not expect any situations (sickness, etc) to be a valid excuse to miss work. You can also expect to be spoken down to in a condescending fashion often times for reasons that are exagerrated or simply untrue. The management of your employment is from a position of control, not of an attempt to provide professional growth. This company has churned through more sales reps in its 11 years than it has customers. This is all fact- utilize this review as you will.
