No work/life balance, mistreat/micromanage employees to death (i.e. watched sales mgr make rep who was at one time top in the company sing "I'm a Little Teacup" for literally being a minute or two late to meeting when he came into the office sick, manage by fear, sales mgr would stand next to you and listen to phone calls during designated "phone time" and tell you what to say-very scripted, if you didn't set enough appts. you were expected to stay at office until you did before leaving for "field time", sales mgr stalked me during day & would drop in unannounced on apts. & networking meetings, bait & switch on job description-was originally supposed to be networking-based, but quickly turned into cold calling, was expected to drive an hour to the office and be there by 7:30 AM for rookie roleplaying (even though I was a seasoned sales rep prior to taking this position), wasn't let into rookie roleplaying because was 1 minute late, so had to go back to my desk like a bad little boy to think about it, drive an hour to my territory (which was close to where I lived), and drive back to the office to tell my mgr about my day (sometimes had to turn in biz cards we collected), & then drive an hour home, prey on kids straight out of college and take advantage of/mislead them, mandatory to "call from the seat" which is a used car salesman tactic where you have to call your mgr while in front of a customer and make up a bs question, are not open-minded to previous experience/sales techniques and are expected to follow the script, constantly pound the same businesses day after day and expected to cram product down their throat through gorilla sales tactics and a one-call close, extremely high turnover (1/2 didn't make it through training, other 1/2 was gone within the year), service is very expensive & lacks competitive advantages, people who aren't remotely ready for mgmt get promoted when they drink the company cool-aid, very unprofessional and inappropriate company culture (like a frat house) where excessive partying, discrimination, & sexual harassment is commonplace-you could tell they did the bare minimum to try & satisfy affirmative action requirements (i.e. would have 1 rep over 40 & another who was African American at any given time).
