Pros

The job was not the best based on the role especially if you haven't worked in a call center before but great management!

Cons

The cons is probably the lack of growth opportunities it seems you have to know the right people to climb up if that is what you want

Thank you for sharing! We too have recognized that with our product and distribution expansion, consultative selling skills and more robust training is a must! We have recently rolled out weekly trainings for Internal Wholesalers, Sales Support Specialists and Regional Vice Presidents that align with our expansion efforts. We appreciate this feedback and always looking for areas to improve.
