Zones reviews

They stopped allowing the vendors to come in because it is too "distracting" despite the fact those 5 minute vendor breaks were the only way to break up all day cold calling and stay sane. You burn through your book of leads so quickly and end up calling the same people almost weekly even though they do not need anything or nothing has changed. You do not start to do well until enough people quit and their one or two buying accounts that they had are transitioned over to you and your few accounts. Stay there long enough if you're crazy and enough accounts will be transitioned over to you and you will MAYBE be ok.

So so many to list... Honestly if I knew 4 years ago what I know now I would have never even bothered applying at this sweat shop. Favoritism runs rampant at Zones... A handful of reps are gifted the best accounts so they never really have to sell all they have to do is farm and make huge money while everyone else is expected to live up to their level. Zones has some serious identity problems and complete lack of motivating for its sales teams.. The pay is terrible for industry standard, no working from home (this kind of job is done from home at most of their competitors) spifs are pretty much long gone at this point and zones finds ways to keep them for themselves... You literally need to be making this company 300+k a year if you want to clear 60k.... How often is that going to happen while trying to sell monitors at 4 points? As of now Zones wants to change into a data center solutions company.... HA LOL. They are not even close to being set up for something like that, customers expect boots on the ground and their reps to be educated to their needs and zones doesnt care they expect you to get a 500k storage or networking order after talking to these guys on the phone for 2 months without ever meeting them. Management needs to figure out something and something fast as many tenured people want out to find better pay from places that have the tools for success... The one and only reason Zones doesnt completely implode is their non compete, you can never leave this place for greener pastures because zones will sue you. This place has become pretty much a waste of time and effort if you want any kind of career it is full of burn outs and people just waiting to get out.
