Pros

WFH all days a week, company provide technology.

Cons

Every week, I have 7, 1-on-1 with my manager calling about my performance, my call strategy, etc. At the beginning it sound it was very couchable and customize training for account Managers, within weeks manager start texting and calling me every 5-10 min asking me “if I already call XYZ company? Why I haven’t? What they said? Then it turns into a daily interrogatory. “From 8:14 am to 8:22 am, what did you do? Why you didn’t make calls? We are paying you for calling people not for you to go to the bathroom, or stretch.” And every other 5 minutes my manager telling me “I’ve watching your calls for the last 5 hours, you took 3 breaks each of 10 minutes, you could have use those 30 min to call at least 12 different companies.” What I thought it was a stable culture and support job, it turns into a huge burnt out and police interrogatory like if I was a Criminal. Every day I have 1-2 calls with manager and is not to discuss my performance, or sale strategy, is mostly about why am I taking breaks, why didn’t pitch in a different way and how he is disappointed at me. I would have quit so far ago, but I need this job so sustain my kids before they go to college. These job will retaliate and micromanage the most of you, until one day you will start hating your job, your life due to people that have no competence and skills to be leaders and actually support his teammates. They will treat you as an “employee” NOT as a “teammate” or “Co-worker” Avoid at all cost working on here!!
