Pros

Leaving was the best decision I ever made at Zones

Cons

Zones is taking the "do more with less" theory to new levels. First it was getting rid of resources and now it is with the pay.

Pros

Good people working on the front line, get to work on interesting projects across broad range of technology and topics, get to drive the relationship with my accounts

Cons

The bomb in the basement is real fear that I'm not being paid my full commission because the reporting and accounting is so bad. Some how upper managment poor leadership made 2019 a terrible year in sales when it was booming for everyone else. The annual re-alignment of accounts and commission payment reduction. The constant loss of experienced sales people.

Pros

Chill atmosphere for the most part and certain managers are cool. Food is brought from different manufacturers as well. Zones DOES NOT provide any of it! Cool prizes can be won as well from manufacturers.

Cons

Where do I start? 1. You won’t get paid for 75% of your efforts because AM’s only get paid for selling core products (Notebooks, printers) but you’re expected to still work hard and NOT get paid. 2. The pay structure itself is massively antiquated for 2019. 3. The culture is chill, that’s because most folks there aren’t truly invested. 4. Management makes you go to pointless trainings almost daily, so the company gets paid from manufacturers, but you don’t. 5. Company DOES NOT value your time, nor your commitment, as you will have daily team huddles that waste a lot of your valuable time. 5. High turnover due to factors above. 6. Morale is quite low and is palpable in the building. 7. They micro manage the hell out of people using metrics only a seven year old wouldn’t find offensive. 8. ZERO work from home policy. 9. Your clients won’t respect you because they view Zones as the ultimate middle man who does not make their own product, nor have the capabilities to truly solve their challenges. 10. Different departments within company do not work together, nor do they seem to like each other causing unnecessary stress and hostility. 11. Lots of others are actively interviewing making it a running joke in the office:)
