If you are a new employee with RN, there is little to no training. Granted, there is training in Chicago but, it is done by people who have never sold the product, never had to do a live pitch to a prospect, never had to get the confusing paperwork signed and submitted to then get it rejected and have to start all over again. To make matters worse, they haven't ever had to sell more than tacos and bagels so, it does make sense how this product is over their head.
In-field training is done by brand new regional managers who have gone through the "training" and also have no clue.
This is not a sales job! It is a data entry job. If you don't like computers, logging every breath you take and meeting cold call and presentation quotas as well as sales quotas, this job is not for you. You will be called out on the dreaded weekly sales calls if you missed inputting data for the week and did not make your quota for cold calls but did make it for sales....which is more important? real signed contracts or BS cold calls? No one in corporate cares if the calls were real, the presentations were real, they just have to be in the system so, you make your quota or else.
If you are part of the inner circle, your job is safe and you don't need to perform, show results or treat other employees well. You can have numerous complaints about you with HR and you are safe. That is because they are not qualified for their positions and birds of a feather flock (or get hired by each other)
RN is working on "simplifying" the processes. New contracts with crazy language and mathematical equations not even Einstein could figure out are the product of the simplifying. We now offer no tailored made services anymore and are Isolating even more potential clients with the new procedures that start immediately with no warning.
If you want to start a job to end up with unemployment because of poor training or the actual closure of the company, then I would suggest working at RN.
If you are like me, one of the dedicated, loyal employees with tenure and knowledge, you are experiencing the same lack of respect, disregard for your abilities and venomous attitudes from the circle. They will stop at nothing to allow their blatant inexperience and lack of knowledge about RN be seen.
