You’ve Been Warned (NA Commercial Team)
Pros
There once was a lot of pros such a family culture, entrepreneurial spirit and strong team collaboration. Unfortunately, that is all gone. The former CEO and his NA minion have destroyed the culture. The employee turnover has been horrendous. For example, the HR group no longer exists. The lone guy left is a talent recruiter not an HR professional.
Cons
The NA commercial team has had nearly 200% turnover in the last three years. The NA minion always has to have someone in the doghouse at all times. The minion will either destroy the person’s job or destroy the person. He is very old school and tries to use fear and intimidation to manage the team. There is also a lack of integrity as well. Forcing a partner to carry 2.5 times the typical amount of inventory in order to meet last year’s sales number is very very bad for business. There is no way to show growth in 2018 and this is not going to make the private equity owners happy. Take my warning and stay clear of this company and the NA Commercial Team.
