Rain For Rent reviews about "pay"

Sales management on the corporate level is a joke. You can be a complete screw up and still have a job as long as you kiss up to management. Too many meetings and wasted time on unnecessary reports. A lot of internal fighting/finger pointing between sales and operations. The CRM upgrade was the nail in the coffin.

Little to know experienced people in the field trying to do stuff for the first time. Sometimes we would go away for a couple of weeks at a time.

Stuck in their old ways, afraid to change. Hold people accountable for profitability but do not let them make any decisions.

A little behind the times

No training, awful upper management only looking at their potential for bonuses. Branch has little or no actual decision making ability. You can't fire anyone even if they are incompetent or stealing from you. You have to send all your good equipment out to other branches and pay to get crap in from other places. Very very badly ran. Anyone that has any respect for themselves or any integrity won't last long here. All the good employees quit within 2 years. The ones that stay...... Well they are the problems.

The company is old and family owned, which is great in that they try to take care of employees and promote from within, the problem is there is a lot of favoritism and therefore a lot of unqualified managers in the company. Blame tends to get deflected down regardless of who's at fault. If you are an entry level employee you better have thick skin and be prepared to document your job performance to protect yourself. The expectation is that if you are salaried you WILL work well in excess of 40 hours per week and as a Sales Rep., even though there is a schedule that's supposed to rotate, expect to be on call 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. The company's internal processes are a mess. You have to receive approval from management for nearly everything you do and will be second-guessed on your schedule and how you prioritize your time on a regular basis regardless of how well you perform. Also, be prepared to spend the majority of your time filling out paperwork and waiting on their ridiculously slow networks.

no promised bonuses. out of town constantly. will hold stuff over your head. no communication. refuse to hire new people when current employees are finally fed up and leave the company, just adds more work to the people left. crazy long days

Company needs to continue to invest in rental fleet because sometimes demand is higher than supply. It is a real bummer when you cannot help a do a job specially when they want us to do it due to not having the proper equipment on hand. Grow the rental fleet more, specially pumps.

Every employee is on call 24/7. The workload for industrial sales representatives is quite extensive. Expect to work at home most days when coming home if you want to be successful.
