Assistant - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso Adams Outdoor Advertising

great people, amazing industry. very fun if you are a creative person.

Need to pay sales employees at least 4x more for fuel expenses

Good people, environment and co-workers for the most part despite a few bad apples.

The game they play hiring new sales people is not appreciated. I was told by everyone in the company I was doing fantastic, I was making WELL over 5 figures in sales WEEKLY let alone monthly. They extended my salary gurentee of 60k for 3 more months due to my sucess before switching me to full commission. The commission rates are very low, you have to be billing basically a million dollars to live off of it comfortably. (IMPOSSIBLE in the first 3 months). Yet even with leadership loving me and telling me how good I was, the company was unwilling to extend my fruition and keep me on board with a salary, given I had brought it probably $300,000 at this point to the company in a short 5 months. (Crushing other new sales people). They said, this is how it works, doesn't matter how good you are. It's sad because I was doing great and providing a lot for the company; yet the company in the end decided to follow poorly placed corprate policies instead of taking care of their sucessful employees on an individual level. They were SHOCKED when I quit, as well as the other sales person who went down the same route, same time as me. I put off writing this, as I did really appreciate the direct leadership I worked with. However, I think the C level really needs to look into this. It's sad to say, but the system they use here is clearly created to bring in new people, push them to the max for 6 months and then get them to quit by not giving them a salary (so they don't have to pay unemployment on their REALLY high turnover rate) and then offload all the clients they brought on to their tenures sales staff. It's honestly a slimey was to business and the main reason I no longer reccomend the company to anyone, wether for advertising, or employment.
