Pros
-Coworkers were willing to help me and teach me about everything I knew. -Free food on weekends.
Cons
-Micro managed like no other! Several sales managers on the floor constantly questioning our approach to the customers. -I stated in my interview that I was looking for an “intro to sales” position and in response, was told that they technically only offer “intro to sales” positions because it wasn’t commission based. Management was not patient with that, this is my first sales job. Instead of trying to teach/help me grow in areas I was lacking in, they would question me and almost belittle me. -They called me uncommitted, and made me feel like I wasn’t doing anything although I was trying my best. -Although I wasn’t being paid on commission, I was told I had to make sure I was “paying for myself to be there” and employment was based on NUMBERS. A HUGE contradiction to the non-commission based approach that is supposed to create a stress free work experience. -I was fired for making a pretty simple mistake and management having me write a statement, left the room to read it, came in and used my own written statement to fire me. Even though I had told them everything previously before writing in the statement. (Long story short) -I was fired nearly 1.5 months into employment. I wasn’t given the chance of 90 days.
