Pros

There aren't exactly any pros.

Cons

Management has recently implemented Key Performance Indicators for the service department. It feels like an effort to stop the pay increases. Other departments think low of PSD when we’re the one department that’s speaking with these clients every day. We’re berated mostly due to previous specialists that let their accounts go unattended and new Specialists getting passed a boatload of troubled clients with unresolved issues. While trying to resolve outstanding issues for accounts dating since let’s say 2021, we’re constantly being told that we have to do more. Upper management want us to be proactive instead of reactive. One can’t be proactive with excessive issues that are still pending from 2022 and prior years. Each week there’s always something new that we’re adding to our roles. Just let us get the accounts up to date first. There will constantly be high turnover due to this. Being put down by clients due to prior issues with previous specialists do not make anyone want to stay at a company that allows this. Management is focused on reprimanding employees for outstanding issues. However, don’t punish the new employees for what your older employees weren’t doing. Team leads (some of them) do support but they can only do so much when they’re always in unnecessary meetings and are being told by management that we’re not doing enough.

Pros

You can make a lot of money if you are in the right territory and have a good client base that hasn’t been oversold by previous AMs. The training is very good and you will make good friends! The people they hire are smart and fun to be around

Cons

If there has been high turnover in your territory it will be hard to sell as the clients have products that have not been properly implemented and are likely gun shy to purchase. It will also depend how “over promised/under delivered” their experience with new business is. The work/life balance can, and probably will, become very toxic. You are on the road constantly if you have a travel heavy territory which makes it difficult to get admin work done during business hours. You will be working before and/or after work - probably on the weekends as well. Ask for transparency in your territory assignment. You want to know how far your furthest client is as you will have to go see them in person at some point

This is a performance-driven role with high expectations, and team members are given clear direction and the tools to succeed. Those who consistently deliver see meaningful rewards for the work they put in. Please share further feedback with your leader.
