Pros

The other sales agents are lovely.

Cons

High turn over of staff, company always firing people over trivial matters. They like to hire people, completely use them for 6 months for probation and then sack you straight after. COMPLETELY AVOID!. They don’t even have a recruitment process they genuinely hire anyone and ask if they can start within the next couple days. They do not even have an ounce of duty of care for their employees they only care about making sales - duty of care is non existent. Commissions look fancy but they are far from it- you’ll be disappointed with your payslips if you think you’re making tonnes of commission. Has a terrible commission structure where it’s seemingly impossible to achieve the maximum to apparently make the most commission as they always come up with an excuse to not progress you further. That’s why so many people leave the company.

Pros

One of the better sales environments that I have seen. Healthy competition between agents but still a sense of commonality and cheering on your coworkers. They have an R&R room to step away and take a break and the actual break room is far enough removed from the floor that you can really take time to eat and relax and not get sucked back in to work. The company is pretty diverse and the management team makes themselves available when needed. Expectations have increased on showing up on time and being professional but it still does not feel micromanaged but rather creates coaching environment. This isn't a sales job where you are pressured to crank out unrealistic daily numbers and get yelled at or worry about job security because of it. In fact turnover is refreshingly low. Pay is competitive and they make growth paths very clear.

Cons

With all the new growth things have become cramped but that will be fixed next month when we move to a brand new office. As with all start ups, sometimes technology and processes take awhile to catch up with the company but overall Neilson does a great job recognizing the issues and working to correct them.
