Pros
Elevator Controls will bring on entry level staff and give them an opportunity to grow into the role. Individuals with sales backgrounds and or account management experience are a value to this organization.
Cons
Elevator Controls is notorious for cheap components, drives and motors. Price and not quality drive this organization. This is an attitude that starts at the top and infected the entire company. Product support is inconsistent at best. Major flaws in the h900/v900 product line. Not a forward thinking, proactive company but a reactive one. In a day and age where customers have so many options, they have not adapted to this concept. Upper management has chosen to outsource the day to day management of the sales staff to an outfit in the Pacific Northwest. ...This individual plays sales staff against one another and has individual conversations asking individuals if they thought they could do a better job in a particular territory than sales agent B, as an example. "Do you think I should fire sales agent B"? The names of the staff change but this third party management system has remained in place for some time. I was never sure what the "value add" was for this sales management team who also has the role of marketing as well. ....inconsistent email blasts that may not be specific to a region. I can go on but I hope that the picture is becoming a little clearer. If you receive a commission check, it will be added to your base pay instead of being processed separately and taxed accordingly, this is as a result of the staff accountant deciding that the software program was to hard to learn so she was going to process it her way with the blessing of upper management.
