Pros

There are none besides my co-workers who were amazing.

Cons

The management was horrible. It's a family business with very small-time thinking. They continuously decreased our commissions as we sold more and they would increase our targets.

OUCH! Well, that hurts! First, the positive - you are 100% right in that your co-workers are amazing. We are lucky to have such a terrific, hard-working and fun sales team! As you well know, working in sales is a bit of a roller-coaster ride; the ups and downs are part of the game - when sales are great, everything's great. When sales are tough, things are a little harder. Can we do better at managing these peaks and troughs? Sure! As for increasing targets, that's normal practice and is a sign that the team (and therefore, the business) is doing well - perhaps it's in the communication of why they are changing that could be improved. We're on it! I joined the organization mid-June in a newly created role of People and Growth Manager (which in itself demonstrates that Medisca is investing in its people and believes in the need to evolve and grow). My team and I have been working with various teams across the business, including Sales, to see what improvements we can make to processes, systems, structures and tools and what support we can provide to help everyone operate at their best. Change doesn't happen overnight, but I'm hoping the current team is starting to feel some improvements; our recent employee survey results seems to indicate so! -Aimée

Pros

some colleagues were nice, that's it.

Cons

- poor management training - no respect from owners and management to employees. - toxic working environment - you are treated as if you are dishonest and taking advantage of the company from day 1, that's their mentality, so they never can keep employees, because they make them feel unappreciated and disrespected.

Pros

Great colleagues, decent insurance coverage, RRSP matching plan, growing company, provides extensive training, good for getting a foot in the industry.

Cons

Nepotism is rampant, management is immature with uneven leadership skills, the work stations are like cattle pens, HR is not very trustworthy.
