Great to get your feet wet in sales, horrible in every other way.

Regional account manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

You get a base salary and two weeks of "training" in Boston. Great as someone who's never had a sales job, teaches you complete objection.

Cons

So, the "real" product is plain telephone lines (POTS), specifically from AT&T which you convert to "GRANITE" and you're able to make a commission on that. Most business that need these lines are already signed up. The future is wireless (well not the present) and Granite sells people saying that they are able to get the same discounts. In reality, you're not able to help people. So you're calling C level executives, lying to them to get a meeting to then get invoices & reports to realize that you can't save them any money. If you happen to find a business who has AT&T POTS, then you're able to con them into putting all their telecom with you. The operations team doesn't know what they are doing and there is no communication.

Smart CEO, some great teammates , but horrible ethics , favoritism, and micro management

Anonymous employee

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Before I write any review on a former employer I try to wait a few months or longer so I can have a more clear perspective . My teammates were great (for the most part), location was okay , office was nice and the company does some great things in the name of charity . Training in Boston was also really good .

Cons

The salary is below average (50K), commision structure is great but its useless if your assigned leads are trash (which most of them are ). The leads you do have that are decent may or may not be taken from you if a higher level sales rep wants it . The upper management in the Atlanta office is horrible . A lot of favoritism , if you're a "buddy" of the VP and on a team where the Director is in good favor with the VP, you will get deals handed to you . If you're not, you're screwed . Also if your going to work in this office make sure you have a thick skin when it comes to politics , (the "suggest who you should vote for"), race and religion . The Atlanta office is the boiler room if telecom sales .

Good people to work with but not much professional growth

Senior project coordinator

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The environment is good to work with and is close to the train station.

Cons

Not much professional growth unless you are a preferred employee with management. No diversity with management. Turn over is extremely high and nothing seems to change in order to change this.
