TriNet reviews

Its a mans world, and we are all living in it in this new era of TriNet. Promotions based on who you know, not skill and time with the company. Unwilling to address and invest the true issues in the systems. Constant overlap of initiatives, but the good ole boys club will always get the support they need.

Ridiculously high turnover (I was hired with about 30 other sellers. After 1 year, only 5 of us remained). Being skilled at cold calling is essential, since you are a glorified SDR for your first year or two since you won't get inbound leads until you have tenure. If you're not great at cold calling, you will be required to attend networking events after 5pm, while still putting up call number KPIs. Opportunities and meetings are so scarce that managers have immense pressure from regional directors to attend every sales meeting in an attempt to ensure success, which they end up taking over and controlling, so you never actually learn. Also managers want to price deals at the very bottom floor to win by price, which only hurts your commission. ROE is so limiting and you are forced to split in other reps on almost every deal. So much pressure and very little development. All managers do is gossip. You are praised for closing 1 deal in your first 12-18 months, that's how difficult the sale is.
