-just did a round of layoffs nationwide. Operations, sales, customer support. Some I know to be good employees -Weird restructures in sales that didn’t make sense. My role didn’t change but my title did. I Lost the ability to sell singlewide units. -comp is utterly abysmal the last year or so. -quota switched to activations instead of orders. Activations are made or broken by your branch’s ability to deliver. Once you put the order in, you can only help so much. If your branch screws up you don’t make money. Activation can also happen months after the order. Expect to wait to actually get paid in orders. -ridiculous amount of “trainings” where you learn very little. Clueless trainers that couldn’t sell water to a dehydrated man. Just playing fake expert at their made up “trainer” jobs -worst micromanagement I’ve ever dealt with in a sales role. But that could just be my team -constant system updates that get rolled out with bugs. Transition in January was rife with issues. -c suite that you never hear from. Send forth the same executive all the time to be their mouthpiece and hide away in their ivory tower -multiple managers seemingly doing the same job, at least at my team, eland not contributing much -little support from those managers, just say “make more calls”. They never join our sales calls, never join us on the road, never get involved. Just hold meetings where they ask for more orders, more kpis. How about hopping on a negotiations call or joining me in an office visit? -operations understaffed, some people doing multiple jobs. Especially more so with “win locally”. As a seller this hurts my success because they are stretched very thin with so many hats to wear

Was recruited with a particular compensation package and sales manager. Compensation package changed a week after start date. No one mentioned it during recruitment. (And it was not a good change) And then sales manager left two weeks later. Also, they will tell you that the compensation is uncapped, which is false since they do not have enough product to sell or rent. You are a slave to whatever your yard has. Since no one QAs their SFDC there is so much fake info in there to make certain individuals look good. In order to make any money whatsoever you have to work extra UNPAID hours to talk to more people. No thank you.
