- CEO, out of kindness, has given people chances who are not particularly qualified, and has hired people who are sometimes incompetent. This has directly made my job difficult at times.
- I worked with remote sales people who were pretty lazy, and did not meet their numbers (call wise, appointment wise, dedication wise). Many were hard to get a hold of and seemed like they were working for maybe 1-2 hours and did their own thing rest of the day. I believe this is because of the good base salary, which made people get comfortable.
- Your hand wont always be held and some things you will learn on your own (in sales), however, in other departments such as HR & Payroll, you'll have dedicated managers that are very hands on. However, there is a new sales manager who seems very dedicated to making a difference in this department. When i started in 2021, there was a great sales manager of 7+ years who passed away unexpectedly, which in turn made it difficult for new sales people to get the hang of it. This slowed down the morale and momentum of the sales team for a period of time.
- In somewhat of a rebuilding stage so the team is small, a few team members who have been here for 10-15+ years have stepped away for reasons that dont involve any sort of misconduct. (family matters, and 2+ of which have simply retired). So there are few things that are in still in the process of being figured out.
- Some people have had trouble in the past dealing with pressure from leadership, and I saw a lot of people take that the wrong way. To be cut and dry you need to have thick skin and have the bigger picture in mind. Not for the faint of heart, you are here to do a job and pressure is something that you need to learn how to deal with.
