Not all that glitters is gold
Pros
- provide equipment - the pay wasn't horrible - the health/dental provided wasn't bad - great co-workers
Cons
- lied: danced around the issues that were presented to them - no reviews: being new, you expected guidance like where to improve. Clearly, no news isn't good news. - managers had teams of people. They strived to be the number one team. Rather than helping others improve, if they needed to, keep praising the ones that have been selling for 4-5 months already and leave the ones that have been selling for 10 days to fend for themselves. - promises of the best training available of 6 wks only to be cut down to 2 1/2 weeks. That's rough. - being moved throughout departments, and starting over, gives little to the person being moved to improve as they feel beat down or not good enough. - when asking questions during training: some trainers, when people asked questions would respond with TRAINER: Figure it out. You have the tools on the website to use, so use them. NEW HIRE: Where do we find it on the website TRAINER: You have to look. We can't hold your hand. NEW HIRE: I've only done this job for a week TRAINER: Pull up your big boy pants and be self-sufficient NEW HIRE: Ok... thanks. 3 months later - file for unemployment
