Pros

Some Good co-workers free soda Free fruit Friday Few good company events

Cons

Micromanagement. They record your phone calls; your manager has access to your e-mail, to your computer screen and cameras all over the floor. - If you don't trust your employees why do you hire them ?! You can stay way past 4 pm, but they are not flexible at all with their 7 AM "early culture." Bad managers. The company thinks if someone made to SAM and they are good at sales and will be good manager. Wrong! A lot of bosses -not a lot of leaders. Managing with fear. A lot of problems in the house that management knows about it but seems they don't care to fix it. Even if you suggest it, they will thank you and ignore it. Result: Really high turnover! They won't share the turnover numbers because are probably laughable- other words- pretty sad. The company has house accounts, and they play favoritism. They will give those accounts for the ones they like- pretty visible to everyone that you will succeed if the company gives you something. I could go on and on... sadly, nothing I will write will be making any changes to the organization.

Pros

England is experiencing tremendous growth which provides many opportunities for its employees to succeed. You can tell that managers want their teams to do well and there is plenty of room for promotion within the company. While very busy on a day-to-day basis, company culture is a work hard, play hard mentality. Upper management really does care about employees and that fosters a culture where employees care about each other.

Cons

The PTO policy is pretty lacking, but comparable to other companies in the industry. To be successful in any sales role in the company you need to be able to make cold calls, you cannot count on the leads you receive from marketing to be adequate for you to succeed.

Pros

Good people that work there.

Cons

I rarely post negative reviews but England deserves one. I wasn't let go. I left on my own to take another opportunity. I have 15 years of sales, sales management, and leadership experience and was paid $32,000 a year because I didn't have a degree. I see the value in education, but for some people, an education isn't possible. The job I left England for, vales me, my experience, and has a culture that walks what it talks. I now make a base salary of $75k, and I say that not to draw personal attention but to let people know that England is a place that values your education over experience, which in the professional areas is outdated. - A huge percentage of their payroll spend is targeted to management. - The opportunity for advancement is very poor. They create positions for advancement, but the increase in pay is minimal, to say the least. - Management jobs are limited. - The ratio of managers to teams is about 25:1, but the managers do get paid really well. Too well, because the salaries of everyone else, are way below average in Utah, and nationally. - I have heard opinions from many different people since I left England Logistics and they do not have a healthy reputation in Utah. - I left to take another opportunity. They do not value experience. - They require a degree for their account managers, which is a joke. I worked with 22 year old account managers that had degrees in exercise science, history, engineering, nursing, etc. - Very few managers have experience in leadership - Typical top-down call center management and environment
