The 70s style building is similar to the culture
Pros
Easy product to sell while having the flexibility to work from home. A good first year guarantee which allows you to build and develop your client base. New Sales VP seems to be what the office needs to move to the next level.
Cons
The office President operates like the company is still a billboard company and regards the operations and real estate personnel higher than those generating the revenues. We avoided meetings with the President as he didn't understand that you need to add value in a meeting and not give away solutions because he can as President. Any thinking outside the norm was shot down quickly by the President, Real Estate and Operations. The office operates as a "culture of no" rather than let's brainstorm the idea. The belief was we having been doing this for ten years and we know how to do it the right way.
