Pros
-Taking a chance on me when I finished school. -Work life balance pretty good. -corporate world experience -commission plus base cool...but please read the con for the string attached
Cons
-Training took 2 weeks (not a hard job) but manager claims it's a 5 year process.... So no 25¢ raise even 8 months in. ( he really said this) -Also commission should go up that's how it works well in this branch, manger gives you the newest accounts even telling me it's an up hill battle.... So ok wait not only no raise but -No growth in commission or pay regardless of growth is job responsibilities. - I was 10 months in the job and I was assigned to train the new girl. 5 others who had been there for 5+ years didn't, the team didn't and the manager didn't. And still no bump in pay. new girl is smart and said this is fishy and already wants to leave because the manager is sketchy. -as a young employee with older staff members I didn't have a lot to talk about. I don't have kids or I don't get certain references to the 80s jokes that's fine but because I don't talk. The other employees started talking behind my back and I actually saw an email they said this to the new hire. "Isn't he argent and an spoiled brat?"( I talked about how my parents let me use their car for work) - and boss encouraged the talks I mean come on HR!!!! -You then find out that older staff gets all the easy payoff jobs you get 1-2 here and there to "balance it out"....Not even. Ok well you work hard prove that the 1-2 bones you can kick but and fill them. Well now you solely do new accounts.....good luck. -Management puts little to no effort into retaining, motivating, new younger staff. Primarily supported older team (of 5) - When you do leave, manager doesn't in trouble because he gave you bad accounts to make your numbers look like it's your fault ! -Boss asked me take on a bad contract to save his older staff's numbers and I did it because I was trying to prove myself but it did not pan out well. - when giving my Two Weeks notice, my boss was furious and called me names, questioned my loyalty and work ethic and called me a lot of names.... I Didn't have to give a two weeks but I did because it was the right thing to do but man that was rough.
