70+ phone calls twice a week. Never work from home. They have a group fund that is split throughout the company and you never know what it is. It could be $5 or $10,000. The structure is so tight that everyone operates like robots. They claim the employee survey is how they make changes. Disagree. Competitors will double your salary and let you work from home. Then management will tell you the competitors are not trustworthy or they will try to scare you into staying. When in all actuality the competitors actually take care of there employees

Sales-related activities are all tracked and measured, and the expectations for activity are very high. These do not diminish as experience is gained, leading to burnout after a few years. Most salespeople stay 2-3 years because once they learn how to sell, other companies offer them a better lifestyle, even if it's similar pay, and people leave. For years, it seemed like employees were regarded as cogs in a wheel, and even if that has improved over the years in most ways, the fact that management won't adjust their incentive systems to recognize that not all employees sell in the same way and that sales calls are still a major part of compensation is damaging.
