Pros

Great warranties are a big competitive advantage and some great people to work with but ...

Cons

If you are planning to work for the marketing department, don't expect praise and/or encouragement. In fact, from my experience, you can expect some of the following while working at SP marketing: losing credit for your ideas, backstabbing, blaming others, blaming other departments and blatant favoritism. In my opinion, the Marketing management is grossly incompetent with a lack of vision, zero creativity, is conniving and calculating. Marketing management's overall egotistical attitude is disgusting and quite frankly, unwarranted. If the owners would just open their eyes they would see some very obvious issues including a true lack of ability covered up by too much power for a non-owner. The best skill possessed is pulling the wool over the owner's eyes. As long as that rein of terror is allowed to continue, I would not advise seeking a job within the marketing department at System Pavers.

System Pavers Response

I'm sorry that you had such a negative experience working at System Pavers. The nature of your experience is somewhat surprising, as most of our employees seem to truly love working here and enjoy the environment we strive to create. We have many long-tenured employees, which in this day and age speaks volumes about System Pavers' attractiveness as an employer and work environment. In particular, our Marketing department has had less turnover in the past two years than any other area within the company, which would not be the case if it were a hostile or otherwise dysfunctional environment. I hope that wherever you have moved on to after leaving our company, it's turning out to be a better environment for you.

Pros

I think the product and warranty are top notch, culture in Denver office is great

Cons

Their sales training is strictly memorization with gimmicks and heavy closing pressure. While I appreciate that their methods could make a sales person (they call them design consultants) out of a neophyte, if you memorize, play word games, (use 35 Dynamic Words and get 25 tie downs "don't you agree?") use a pen, never your finger to point to an image, their lack of flexibility and allowance of individual style makes this a company that few seasoned sales professionals will enjoy.

Pros

SPI or System Pavers University is top notch and the technology that they give you is also cutting edge where there is a great amount of money spent on a design consultant prior to going into the field.

Cons

The location in Ventura County has an established team and also a small team that is micromanaged and will not grow effectively for the future. Leads are far less than 15 on average and cherry picked by the sales manager to see which would actually look good on paper prior to issue. It is highly suggested that if you choose to work for this company do not work in Newbury Park and look elsewhere. There will be a 90 ramp up period and you will not be paid anything past 3 weeks of training unless you sell.
