Not the best organization

Recommend

Pros

Building close relationships with your direct reports will be crucial. Tight knit team. You can make pretty good money if you succeed.

Cons

Higher level leadership doesn't care about you. They only care about themselves. No matter the work you put in, nothing is ever good enough. The company talks about boosting morale however they say that at a high level but nothing is done. They want to work flexible but schedule 8am meetings. Sales leadership is micromanaging and consistently gives back handed compliments and calls people out in meetings/emails to embarrass them. Overall this causes extreme burnout even with their most successful employees.

Pros

Remote options, potential to make good money if you have industry experience.

Cons

Training is horrible, metrics are unattainable in this market environment, the resources they claim to have for new employees are not as supportive as they say, the new supervisors for some divisions are only out for themselves and get frustrated when you do not do things the way they would. Positive feedback is next to none. Even with great success, your commission is completely dependent upon the delivery team which is not always as accessible as one would think. The recruiters are overworked and picky about which job orders they want to focus on. the list goes on and on, I would rethink working for this company.
