Pros
-a paycheck ever two weeks. (then again, every employer does this) -driving the car. (that gets old after a while) -potential opportunity for travel. (if you're fortunate enough to chosen) -RSUs (not very enticing when your RSUs were issued at $60/share and the stock is trading at $6/share)
Cons
-lack of performance based incentives. (aka commission or bonuses) Combine that with lower than industry standard pay, you get a perfect recipe for extremely high employee turnover. -salespeople within Lucid Motors are treated as second class citizens. Within Lucid's sales org, it seems that Inside Sales advisors are treated as the upper echelon, while Studio Advisors are the bottom of the barrel. -lack of growth opportunities. Other than moving up to a management position within the studio level, there is no growth opportunities for employees internally. -lack of work/life balance. Understandable within any startup organization, and within a sales role. However, without performance based compensation and incentives, there is no motivation to grind and outperform. Besides low pay, this alone is the number one reason as to why employees are being burnt out to a crisp within Lucid's sales org. -Incompetent management. An overwhelming majority of managers within Lucid's retail operations have no prior automotive, or professional sales background. Selling a high end, luxury EV through a 3-8 month full sales cycle with multiple stakeholders is vastly different compared to selling clothes or beauty products.
