Pros

Very much liked the team I worked with Can make a great salary

Cons

All VP's have been working at RHI for years and stick together no matter what. Sales tracker appears to have many loop holes that your super clever VP will slide right through so you don't get the commission that you worked hard for. On top of the bad management, the micro-management is exhausting. RH hires you telling you that they like people with Entrepreneurial spirits and yet they choose to squash their spirits with the mircomanagement. Another factor, enough with the conference calls & endless meetings to "report" the numbers. Are you kidding ? RH preaches about being on the phone but that's virtually impossible with the endless "non-motivating" meetings. I finally left because the mental harrassment our latest VP dished out on the staff was enough.

Pros

Success with other departments - just not in mine

Cons

Complete bait and switch. I accepted this position under one manager, only to find out after resigning from my previous job that I would be reporting to someone else entirely. There was no meaningful onboarding, no training materials, and no support system in place. My manager openly stated that there was no monetary value in helping me succeed and made little effort to train or develop me. Requests to shadow and learn the business were dismissed in favor of keeping me on the phones. Instead of being set up for success, I felt actively prevented from growing. HR was equally disappointing. I raised legitimate concerns and never received a response. The organization talks about development and support, but my experience suggested otherwise. Joining this company was one of the biggest professional mistakes I have made.
