Pros

Great product. Flexible hours. Good demand for the product

Cons

Micromanagement from hell. Management loves the new “flavor of the month” and gives them portions of your territory as they constantly mix the territories up. They are now shifting towards more of a telemarketing sales approach versus professional inside sales. Management swears up and down they are there to help, but when you ask they don’t lift a finger or even return. Your emails. In 2 years I have seen 4 direct managers, 2 branch managers, and 3 regional managers. Part of me feels like if I can make it through the current regim maybe the job I loved will be back.

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.
