Pros
Great benefits, 3 raises a year, hourly pay plus commission makes for a very nice paycheck. Upper management needs refreshed and needs people with practical ideas.
Cons
The company seems to care more about business than the employee. If we did not have a union to represent us I do not see the company paying as well as they do or giving the same benefits. If they had their way it seems we would work 10+ hours a day and have one day off.
Advice to Senior Management
Ask your reps before making decisions on policy and sales incentives. It would be a good idea to create a team of reps that are there solely to give advice from the sales floor to help keep upper management up to date with daily happenings. Numbers hardly show the truth about a location. Good numbers or bad numbers, you can't understand a location without being there that is why a rep based team meeting with management would give the best feedback.
Pros
-You get to work with the latest technology
-Great local team to work with, share ideas all the time
-Set your own schedule, my management very willing to work with you on days off needed, etc
-Great Benefits! Best PTO I've had after less than 5 years (21 days off + holidays)
-Free phones, laptop and mileage
Cons
-No car allowance (we drive constantly)
-Constant checkups on hititng your numbers
-Comp has changed each year for the last 3 years
-No recognition or reward for growth over prior years sales
-Get dinged on churn, even on accounts you never setup. Churn is looked at up to a year from activation
-Inter-departmental communication issues. too many techs/customer service reps in all different departments just for company account managers to deal with
-Salary is a joke! yearly comp is ok.
Advice to Senior Management
-Pay your people well in salary..too many other account management jobs out there that pay much better with less work
-Provide a company vehicle or car allowance. Mileage doesn't cut it.
-Enough with the suit and tie for small business reps. Most companies we meet with our business casual or jeans. We aren't working with fortune 500 companies here.
