I felt lied to from the start... It seems that this is just like any other bottom-feeding sales job. They SELL you into working for them. It's a revolving door of employees.
You have to sit at a desk and make phone call after phone call after phone call. I came to call us phone monkeys. This is NOT what I went to school and got two degrees for.
There is a sick amount of favoritism shown by the very unprofessional team "leaders". If you're bringing in a lot of revenue, they love you. If you have a bad week, you do not exist.
They say they won't micro-manage you... Uhhh yeah they do. You have to make at least 100 calls a day with at least two hours of talking time (seems easy enough until reality sets in). They set goals in place and make you hit them without offering any advice for areas you could be struggling. If you don't meet this criteria then they will be happier to cut you off than to mentor you. They help the ones who are successful where the successful became successful through longevity and inheriting customers from people that quit or got fired.
Honesty, this was just not the place for me... An office full of frat boys in a peeing contest. You gain customers through lies, you move their freight with lying to the customers AND the carriers moving it for you (which you have no control over).
I am so happy to be out of there, such a relief to walk out of that door.
