Good initial sales training buy very harsh micro-management style

Business Outlook

Pros

Great 4 weeks of paid training. Very applicable to the job to be performed. Great preparation.

Cons

Very harsh management and micro-management. Male dominated atmosphere. Lack of interpersonal and people skills. They will lower your sales pay for just about anything you say. No room for sales skills over the phone. Every call is scripted and you absolutely cannot leave or add one word......your pay for the sale will be lowered.

A shame talented people are chewed up and spit out

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Informal dress code is a plus. Very cool corporate campus. Large number of experienced poeple on the sales floor who want to work work, be treated fairly and enjoy their place of employment.

Cons

Turn over is high---less than 90 days at RV is common. There are many top notch people coming in the front door just as there are an equal number of talented, mistreated, disillusioned people bailing out the back door. Revolving door culture results in distrustful staff, anxious salespeople, burned out folks. 2 weeks into the job and most people are planning their exit. I guess it is the nature of a call center job to experience these issues, but if RV is projecting an image of a progressive, employee focused company then why hasn't management put an end to their model of a white collar sweat shop? Too much money being earned by owners I suppose. If it ain't broke owners have no reason to fix it.
