Pros

The commission structure is great if you plan on staying for 5+ years

Cons

I am writing a review for Group Management Services, and I must express my deep dissatisfaction with the current state of affairs within the company. It is evident that many employees, including myself, are facing significant challenges that are impacting our job satisfaction. One of the most pressing issues is the notably low salary structure, which seems to have remained stagnant for far too long. It's disheartening to see that individuals who have dedicated their time and effort to the company for over a year are still earning just $45,000, while new hires fresh out of college are offered a substantially higher base salary of $60,000. The lack of equitable compensation is a cause for concern and raises questions about the fairness and transparency of the company's remuneration policies. Furthermore, recent changes in our compensation structure, such as the reduction in commissions and the discontinuation of company cars, have added a significant financial burden on employees. With the company's contribution of only $345 a month towards car payments and insurance costs reaching approximately $200, this translates to an annual expense increase of nearly $9,000 for employees. These changes significantly impact our financial well-being and work satisfaction. Moreover, promises of flexible work arrangements, such as 'cloud days,' have not been upheld, as we are now required to come into the office every single day. This abrupt shift in the work environment disrupts our work-life balance and goes against the expectations set by the company. It's evident that Group Management Services has undergone rapid growth, but it appears that these changes have come at the expense of employee morale and satisfaction. When seeking salary adjustments, the response is consistently, 'Sell More,' without considering the dedication and experience of long-term employees. In conclusion, the company's recent decisions have left many employees, including myself, feeling undervalued and disillusioned. The discrepancies in compensation, abrupt policy changes, and a lack of recognition for experience make it challenging to maintain a positive attitude about our work. It is my hope that these concerns are addressed promptly to improve the overall work environment and employee satisfaction at Group Management Services.

Group Management Services Response

Unfortunately, the uptick in negative reviews on 10/11 and 10/12 stemmed from disgruntled employees upset about a company-wide change. GMS is confident in our decision to move away from the company car program. We have worked closely with Motus to establish a fair reimbursement program to ensure employees would be adequately compensated for their automobile usage and mileage for business-related travel. Our new arrangement offers employees a monthly stipend as well as business mileage reimbursement. If employees have any questions or concerns about the new program, they are encouraged to reach out to Internal HR to help better understand this new benefit. We understand that change is hard. We are here to help you through this change.

Pros

My department team was helpful and management was honest about expectations. Management was helpful and kind.

Cons

The company gave me a raise and then laid me off the following week. My management wasn't made aware till an hour before I was. And they were cold and brief. They laid me off due to the company needing to do kick backs. No pto pay out. No severance pay, no notice. Immediate termination. Two other people on my team were let go and for other people in my 12-person office. The company was clearly going under but still took the sales team on international trip, even insurance stated they would not be covered. The lack of professionalism from everyone was mind blowing. People came into work hung over. You have to baby the sales reps. They have constant training. And the sales reps constantly didn't care. The CSR were better at paperwork and negotiating then the sales rep and were also being under paid.
