WOBI Reviews

Disadvantaged and unfair commission structure. They start with a competitive commission structure that attracts good talent but then that drastically changes after the first year which is normally when you really have an opportunity to make money once you have developed contacts and built relationships. After the first year, they only pay commissions (which change to be very small) once you start reaching goals that are extremely high. Over time, not only does the percentage of coms decrease but the sales goal increases which is crazy!. This increase in goals and decrease in coms keeps happeneing year after year making it more and more challenging to make any money other than your base salary. It is very demotivating. Another con is that they want to produce large high-end great-quality events but they don't invest in adequate staff support on the dates of the event. The entire effort you made during the year to attract high-end clients is completely jeopardized by low-staffed events which result in numerous complaints and clients unwilling to return. The last con is that there are no opportunities to advance the career. The organization is very rigid and the opportunity to grow is close to zero.
