Pros

Good benefits I guess, lacking in PTO though

Cons

Poor and homogenized training, made worse by condescending corporate trainers Disconnected culture Inexperienced management that clearly has not had any training on modern sales tactics or tools Horrific salesforce set up, utter lack of tools outside of antiquated SF (prospecting out of SF is hell on earth) The worst of all is after an overly rigorous interview process, they hire inordinately large classes and train them all virtually (across the country), this leads to gross neglect of the individual and poor cohesion within regional teams They ended up firing about 75% of my training class by month 4. By month 6 most of us quit. Run away unless you just want to collect a check for a few months

Pros

If I could give a 0 star I would. Laurie Chamberlin is amazing and Training managers are awesome! But don’t let training fool you. And I pray you get a good market and team. If not you will be miserable.

Cons

Just don’t work here. You are in training everything is amazing everyone is so nice. What they fail to tell you is once you start training you better have a job order and that job order better be signed sealed and done along with a candidate starting too by the time your 90 days of training is done. You are thrown into a fire pit of a failing company. Depending on team you could have a great experience but…. Your KPI is 25 dials a week - expect to do 100 plus. That’s just on the candidate side. Add another 100 for the client side. Their KPIs you get told to obtain in training and the interview don’t listen to that number you better be triple that. I just “graduated” training 2 Mondays ago. My manager didn’t want to keep me because I didn’t have a JO or candidate starting. I fought to keep my job! WHILE I WAS STILL IN TRAINING!! Absolutely ridiculous. Why hire me? I would have NEVER set myself up for failure if I knew or thought I could not obtain my KPIs. Keep in mind while training I am getting multiple shout outs to how well I’m doing, told I’ll be a million dollar biller, I’ve hit every single KPI weekly and I get told they don’t want to keep me. My training manager absolutely loves me and told me they don’t know why this is happening to me. To keep my job I was told I have 3 options… 1. Be let go with everyone else in the same boat as me. 2. I could be a Sales Executive - because they need job orders so bad and no one is performing. 3. I can be “extended” for 30 days of employment to see if I can have a JO or candidate starting. I am beyond stressed. I have now 2 weeks left to make magic happen. You could only imagine my stress especially being beyond excited to start this new job. It sucks I have this deadline over my head when I am still new. My entire team is unhappy and we are losing great people on our team because of management not giving a crap about their employees. Everyone is just a number here. If you like micromanagement this job is for you! I have never worked for a more self centered manager. I got told some heartbreaking news over the weekend. I was going to take off to have a day to process my emotions and what I was told because my mind is very distracted. But I am not able to because I need to be at work to make this job order happen or candidate starting happen so I don’t lose my job. When I was asked how my weekend was I told my producing director what was going on and told them I wanted to take the day but couldn’t. Told them what I was told and why I’m not in a good head space today. I didn’t get a response to what was going on. The convo got directed to “ok so what job orders are you working on we need to make some money here who is in your pipeline” keep in mind the news I was told is about my fathers life expectancy after medical issues. Im so done with my managers. They have made this experience horrible. I’m sad and embarrassed to have this experience on my resume and my LinkedIn. I wish they would have never given me the job.

Pros

Appreciated the opportunity to work from home a few days a week with an hybrid work environment.

Cons

Oversold the opportunity and was told things would be prosperous, then expected to make something out of nothing with limited resources and no strategic support. Lack of logos / current clients creates an environment that sets employees up for failure. Set unrealistic KPIs. Abrupt change in commission and compensation structures. Heavy micromanaging on activity. Overall the company is not going in a positive direction and they are hiring rapidly and firing just as quickly. Employees build up their data base with quality data and never see their return on investment.
