Programs don't promote on performance; they keep low performing friends with no regard to the needs of the business.
Pros
- Home based role - With the right Director in place team of colleagues were close knit and felt like a family. (Things quickly changed when new Director was put in place.)
Cons
- Salary below industry standards. They oftentimes give you a skewed job title to stay under the radar (to not shine light on their lower pay). Regional Sales Managers should NOT be called Retail Sales Managers, that would be someone managing one store. - Directors are so concerned about looking good that they manipulate the field to ensure that they only have yes men/women in place. They didn't realign the business with their strongest talent, to ensure a major win for PRS and the client; they did the opposite. So it will make a lot of sense when the contract comes to an end; they put no thought into keeping substance. There's very few strong people left, and 2 were forced to work in a smaller role under the regional knuckleheads' direction when in reality they could run circles around their new manager. - Very disorganized company -- it takes a really strong manager to keep the field running smoothly with minimal disruptions in lack of equipment and uniform issues; fire drills that constantly don't make sense; approving timesheets on time, etc.
