Pros

Training in Arizona was top notch.

Cons

Was recruited with a particular compensation package and sales manager. Compensation package changed a week after start date. No one mentioned it during recruitment. (And it was not a good change) And then sales manager left two weeks later. Also, they will tell you that the compensation is uncapped, which is false since they do not have enough product to sell or rent. You are a slave to whatever your yard has. Since no one QAs their SFDC there is so much fake info in there to make certain individuals look good. In order to make any money whatsoever you have to work extra UNPAID hours to talk to more people. No thank you.

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.
