Pros

You can make good money with the commission. The branch manager is nice. They don't micro manage you if you do your job.

Cons

Corporate changes the commission plan every year. They don't care if it hurts the people that make them all of the money. Corporate does not listen to the sales team when we tell them about the problems about the new systems. Erik Olsson the owner made $24 mil last year but the base salary for all inside sales is $14.25 an hr all across the country.

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.
