Pros

For the most part, customers are receptive and pleasant to work with. Mix of management types and ideas, though mostly threatening. Some good coworkers.

Cons

At direction of inept consultant who is in way over his head, management has gone in numerous directions with no knowledge or support. Has led to costly errors. Bankers seem to be involved in most decisions.

Pros

Hybrid work opportunity after 6 months.

Cons

By far the worst company I've been employed by. Sales Director has no experience in sales. New owner is one of the less personable people I've met. Turning into a revolving door of employees either quitting or getting fired. When you interview, they are going to bring their "NPS" score up as a "high" employee satisfaction. You will be chewed out & told you're being negative if you answer honestly so nobody answers them honestly. You will receive an endless feed of contradicting statements about timelines and ship dates of the product you're trying to sell. The old owner is the only manager who has "experience" with the company. All other managers were outside hires so there's a huge disconnect between the "worker bees" & management. Invoicing software is beyond clunky and most of the clicks in sales force are for management tracking purposes. SOPs are beyond elaborate and never followed. When I started, base commission was 5%. By the time I left it was 1%. Commission checks went from monthly to quarterly. Tense work environment. Top or bottom of the sales leaderboard, you're going to be micromanaged no matter what. Management not afraid to openly blame sales dept or sales individuals for lost bids.
