Pros

Great sales meetings- they're fun and they spare no expense.

Cons

Sales reps can & will write in everybody else's territory including yours. It doesn't matter if it's a project that you are working bc all it takes is a new contact to call into the 800# and another rep answers the call- they can quote & write the order and you'll both split the credit- but the local sales rep is still responsible for meeting their goals for their local territory. This has caused a high turnover rate amongst the sales reps along w creating internal friction, confusion & uncertainty with the customers. I have never seen or experienced such a cluster such as this- absolutely no ownership whatsoever. The TSM's along w the other reps have to log into Zoom so that they can be monitored by mgmt for 2 hours while making at least 35-50 prospecting calls a day. If you love busy work & micromanagement- this is the job for you. Mgmt will allow other reps to poach other reps- even from the same branch, territories, state, etc... read the reviews- the negative reviews are factually true. Another thing, the salary/ compensation range that's listed at $80K-120K for TSMs is absolutely not true. A new TSM base is anywhere from $40K-$55K depending on experience... first year pay should be between $55-70K at most- and that's crushing it.

Pros

Once upon a time, I enjoyed it.

Cons

New CEO took over. He’s pretty out of touch. My former colleagues call me and ask me return on a weekly basis still because it’s going poorly for them. They constantly make business decisions that counter organic growth. Probably because the motivator is not organic growth. Sales are treated like call center employees and there’s a ton of hate from the WS/ MM merger that wasn’t dealt with. It is definitely an ivory tower. You’re inside of it or you are not. If you’re liked, you can do whatever you want. As long as it looks like you’re committed to the group. This means that you can’t share a dissenting opinion though. Two of the worst three managers I have ever seen were there. They target individuals who don’t go be them the metrics they want in safety or performance. HR’s goal is to protect the company. Share nothing with them, ever.
