Pros
- Nice Campus & Food Options - Work from home options and events if you’re in corporate At first you will love it! But give it just enough time to where you feel comfortable and you’ll begin to feel the vibes. Ask anyone who’s been there for a while and if they trust you enough I can go ahead and say that they’ll tell you they’re trying to get out of the horrid cultish mood. Respect yourself by STAYING FAR, FAR AWAY!!
Cons
Red Ventures is one of the ghost companies that seems like a dream but turns into a nightmare once you are inside and the deeper you get the more intense the drama is. It is one of the most inconsiderate & judgmental companies I have ever worked for, full of people who will lie and demoralize themselves just to make it to the top and/or to be liked and accepted . If you were a top sales agent and you had been there loyally for 10 years, let’s say you were one second late over your “computer monitored allotted time limit” but had gotten in an almost deathly car accident -too bad for you you’re just a number. If you’re in corporate or “ sales support “ it’s all about politics- they don’t care how good you are, if you don’t fit into their clique then “ you can’t sit with us” - they’re going to find a reason to get you out. I’m not one of those people who normally post things like this but when they let me go it was completely out of the blue and I was wrongfully accused of the most minuscule and trivial things such as improperly spacing an email, when others would send out similar memoirs with incorrect grammar and misspelled words. A manger took credit for a project I initiated and created solely by myself because I used it as content for a 1:1 meeting since there was nothing else to talk about, given said manager had been on leave for 3 months prior. At the time she seemed happy for me to have been assigned the project and eager to give helpful input because she had worked on a similar assignment. Suddenly this turned into me having to have my “ hand held.” I had felt targeted the entire time as if it were though they could always find something they did not like about me and were always trying to beat me down to fit their form yet no matter how much I mended my ways to their request it was the opposite the next day and I could never do right in their eyes. When they gave me my exit meeting I asked for examples and my manager told me that she had been gone and didn’t know. They said they could look some up. In my opinion those things should be readily accessible in a meeting like that. I didn’t push the issue because why would I want to continue working for an image driven, political based company that doesn’t recognize or respect my talents. The entire vibe of all departments is a mix of fast paced competitive immaturity that thrives on jealousy. Sales - cutthroat, stressful, unorganized, and extremely inconsistent. Corporate - demeaning, discouraging, and excessive amounts of contradictory information that’s backed by a group of two faced, condescending, dishonest and backstabbing upper management. The compliance team also lies to the sales team in order to scare them into being compliant when the actual rules aren’t as strict. This ultimately leads to confusion and anxiety.
