The job posting and actual duties did not at all match. This is a glorified call center position with a fancy title! - Sales Consultant Scholastic Employee Review

Pros

The only pro is that I had a job at the time. There is not much else to say on the possitive side of things.

Cons

The managers were completely unprofessional and had no idea how to separate work from personal. The expectations of the consultant were completely random and did not take any variables about the different assigned territories into consideration.

Pros

Remote work and the clients are very nice to work with.

Cons

In my experience, the company's compensation practices lacked transparency and accountability. When employees asked questions about how their earnings, bonuses, or compensation were calculated, clear answers were often difficult to obtain. Decisions affecting employee pay were made without adequate explanation, and requests for clarification frequently went unresolved. What I found particularly concerning was the apparent disconnect between employee compensation outcomes and management compensation. Employees regularly experienced reduced bonuses or earnings, while management and executive leadership appeared largely unaffected by the same business decisions. This created the perception that the financial impact of those decisions was being borne primarily by employees rather than those making them. After repeatedly seeking explanations and receiving few meaningful answers, I lost confidence in the fairness and transparency of the compensation process.
