Pros
It's a job. Better than unemployment.
Cons
As an employee over 10 years, I find the company continues to go in the wrong direction. This company is so behind the times. They don't have a comprehensive computer infrastructure. The companies practices, strategies and technologies they attempt use to manage the process' and are archaic. To do your sales job, you are a data entry clerk into Salesforce, As400, Business Intelligence and other systems which do not talk to each other, or share information. Very manual process. Salaried and commission, they have cut the commission plans 2 times and each time impact was great. Now they are implementing a 6 day work week once a month. Come in on a Saturday for 5 hours, to drive around a specific territory, even if it is not in your sales territory, to write down companies and names that could be attained through a purchase of software. Instead, send out sales people from rental and lease on Saturday morning. Makes no sense. We are micro-managed, understaffed and they expect perfection from you, but don't give you the tools to accomplish it. Sadly, next week is my last day. I won't be the last who is fed up.
