You will be hired with a group of 12 other people and trained on how to pester people with cold calls and get a nearly unobtainable sale. Working here is genuinely the definition of walking on eggshells since you are essentially making the company your base salary before they let you go, that typically takes about 2-3 months. After that, they’ll let you go on a reason of “performance” which is false since multiple records I’ve seen from multiple teams state the average is 2-3 sales a week after compiling. If you fall into that, which you most likely will, you’re toast after a couple months. So keep that in mind.
Management will try to paint a picture that you not getting sales is your fault, the reality is, you are put into tiers of leads by the higher-ups and if you are on that bad lead list you will in turn do bad. Also, inbound callers on your team are put under the same stats as outbound callers and also steal all the spiffs from the hardworking outbound callers. Every team-lead will give you the same regurgitated “solutions” that are common sense and really don’t help at all with your situation since, once again, your leads are just bad. On top of this, closers use pushy, bully-like tactics filled with lies and manipulation to force the customer into a sale.
General cons of this job outside of the bad ethics include:
3 month probation locking you from using any PPTO, and no holiday pay until that is over.
Walking on eggshells 24/7 wondering when you’re next in line without a warning.
Super strict attendance policy.
Pretty outdated moldy building. It’s getting a roof so I guess that’s a plus.
Computers always have issues.
