Summer Sales Sleaze That Never Grew Up - Sales Prodigy Promos Employee Review

Pros

Prodigy Promos has great compensation for their sales team. It isn't always the easiest sale, and you are unable to control all of the variables with products produced out-of-house, but if you can manage accounts you'll make good money.

Cons

You will only see this money while you are one the CEO's good side. Go to lunch with him daily, laugh at his jokes, talk his same inappropriate language, listen to blaring rap music all day, and.... maybe he'll keep you around. After I was let go (because I didn't fit the culture) and all of my account were stripped from me and distributed to the CEO's favorites. In speaking with other people in the industry that know the CEO (Jason Marsh), they say he has always operated this way. He'll hire sales guys, let them build accounts then fire them saying they don't fit into the culture. I found out he later fired the highest producing sales rep a week before he was getting married, then kept the rep's book of business (over 5 mil annually) and distributed it among is friends. The work that goes on inside Prodigy is very dishonest, customers are lied to and cheated. I would not recommend their services to anyone.

Prodigy Promos Response

Unfortunately, most of the statements made in this review simply aren't true. We require employees to meet standards for performance. The expectations for account managers (sales persons) are extremely clear, and all decisions regarding who to hire and who to let go are made based on skill set, experience, and performance. We have a unique business culture that's fun and edgy. We have an accepting, open office environment where we love variety. Let it be known that we are NOT corporate America. T-shirts are the dress code every single day. However, we demand professionalism and accountability from ALL employees. Prodigy Promos also takes tremendous pride in being honest and upfront with both customers and employees. We welcome anyone to get to know us and see that for themselves.

Pros

I've worked at Prodigy for two years. I love a lot of things about working here, but the things that significantly impact my job satisfaction are 1. The people that work here are great, it's a busy, but social environment. Cliché, but work hard, play hard really is a fitting description. 2. There is a lot of flexibility working here, people are appreciated for doing their jobs well, and if you are reliable and hard working you will benefit from the flexibility. 3. I feel like every department works hard to contribute their part and make sure their team is pulling their weight (credit to the managers/execs). The Art Dept is creative and quick, Screen Printing work so hard to make everything I need work, rush jobs, weird prints, they always figure out a way; Sourcing and Accounting balance having the reps backs and looking out for the company very well.

Cons

One thing I found initially difficult working here is that you are kind of thrown in to the deep end, so-to-speak, because it is a fast-paced place to work and hard for anyone to take a lot of time to train. I've seen it make it difficult for a few people to stick it out, but once you get over the learning curve, it's worth it.
