Fivestars reviews

Management is corrupted. I think the only team whose members weren't totally depressed coming to work was the engineering team,. Other teams like customer support, account managers, and sales have horrible management and high turn over as of late. I was in one of these teams and had good friends with the other teams. Fivestars has a lot of charm at first, but then you wonder why some managers and supervisors were put there in the first place. Once you get past all the charm and talk of great values, you see that no one is really inspired like they preach and in order to get ahead or be given opportunities you have to smooch the higher ups or get out.

Heavily micro-managed, majority of sales team does not hit quota (less than 30% every month), immature environment (lots of emoji's and 'hype' on Slack channel), required to post on Slack channel obscure things like meetings set or calls made, you will not earn commission unless you hit a certain number (which is normal, except for the fact that only about 50% of salespeople make any amount of commission each month), very much a 'what have you done for me lately' kind of environment, ultimately a high-pressure sales environment with little interest in employee well-being or longevity (8 out of the 10 people in my hiring class were no longer with the company after a year)
