Recruited to leave a good job with the promise of a better career
Pros
Good salary and bonus plan. Quality services and great support staff. Clients were satisfied with the services - however competition and providers were starting to undercut OCCM and causing clients to leave/reduce referrals.
Cons
Had a good job with another company in the industry and was contacted about company expanding sales reps in the area. Even though I was exceeding assigned goals, executive management decided to lay me off, and 30% of the field sales force nationally. The person in my territory that was retained, was not meeting their assigned goals over the same time period. Based on what I could surmise, the person who decided which one of us to retain, was based on a past working relationship and not on performance. On top of this, OCCM enforced their 12 month non compete agreement - even on employees that were there less than 12 months.
