Pros

The people were the friendliest, kindest, most sincerely helpful and co-elevating team I've had the rare privilege with whom to work.

Cons

Compensation (especially in this market!) is nothing special; without the bonus/equity incentives (with a three-year vestment at that), I'd have earned less than I was earning 20 years ago. It feels like a talented startup environment coupled with unmanaged but aggressive growth alongside a "good old boys'" club in which the majority of the executives came from the same company at the same time creates a bit of a clique feeling. Office attendance mandate went into effect while I was there; I was one of three employees exempt. That added to the clique feeling. The company has seen TREMENDOUS growth, and are taking actions (or were at the time of my departure) to stay on track to continue growing at that rate. However, they refuse to compromise on pace or talent. Many successful startups attempt to burn the candle at both ends in this fashion and it ends up being just a mess of pointed fingers as profits plummet and investors run screaming from the fire. The BEST thing this company could do (LAST YEAR) is bring in a high-profile, proven-talent management consultant, and do every last thing they say.

Pros

Free snacks, nice co workers, casual office dress code, decent office location occasional free food. You get paid off when they fire you because they don't have a good reason to let you go.

Cons

Toxic C-Suite Executives, no respect for work/life balance, mistakes are considered unforgivable, no accountability on bad managers and executives. Incredible lack of diversity in leadership and staff.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts and feedback. We often look to make transitions easier for associates who are not successful at our organization to provide them a "softer landing" in their new career/role.

Pros

If you’re looking for cheap, out of college experience, this is the job for you.

Cons

Compensation for inside/outside sales is terrible. Every month, a new pay plan comes out and it’s never beneficial or as promised. Competitors offer a better product with higher approvals rates. Customers no longer trust the company after we temporarily shut down due to COVID and all of our competition stayed open to take in the customers we lost. Benefits have been cut. Sales people can no longer trust management in the decisions that they make since they’re not in our best interest.

Thank you. We appreciate all feedback since it helps us create the best possible culture and work environment for our associates. In the wake of the COVID 19 pandemic, we, at West Creek, made some tough decisions to ensure the long-term success of our company. We will continue to see increases in commission payouts for our Sales team as West Creek grows and recovers. It is unfortunate that you were not satisfied with the speed of that growth. At the same time, we are completely confident in the clarity of our message over the last several months. Thank you, Gene Burke, Chief Revenue Officer
