Pros

Cool loft office space in Soho

Cons

They will change your comp plan multiple times during the year with no reasoning, they will not pay your commissions on time, ever, if at all. Management lies on a daily basis and spies on employees with secret video cameras. HR is incompetent, and should not be in their roles.

Thank you for sharing your experience. I am sorry to read that you left Hanover with a bad taste in your mouth. Our compensation plans do change depending on how viable a territory is as our goal is to ensure sales staff can sell deals and generate revenue for themselves and Hanover. Our payout dates do not change and we do not make exceptions with sticking to those payout dates. We have had some challenges with setting up the new office in New York, but have worked through these growing pains. As for spying and the secret video cameras - I know we have security cameras in that building to protect staff and property, but they are all visible to staff.
