Service Corporation International – “Great job lousy management”

Pros

The job itself is fulfilling...helping others through the grief and preplanning. It was a an environment that stressed sales but not at the expense of families. The funeral directors are top notch and the facilities are appreciated.

Cons

Cronyism is rampant. The ticket to advancement had more to do with hobnobbing with executives then doing a fantastic job. If they did not like an employee they pressured them to quit. Their sales compensation package for sales managers was complicated. They have an attitude of "any warm body" will do.

Advice to Senior Management

Although I did well within the company, they lost a lot of good guys (and gals) due to poor low level compensation.
