Vantaggi
• Co-workers • Casual dress code • Fresh, filtered water (if you fill your bottle before it runs out around 2pm each day) • You get to be yelled at by your clients all day, every day • You get to maybe have your lunch stolen from the public fridges • You get exercise when the fire alarm goes off falsely every other month • You get the privilege of having the President of AL talk down to you and man-splaining things to you at a once-a-year meeting, where they give you a glass of champagne to celebrate your recent pay cut! 🥂
Svantaggi
• Pretty much everything -- but, specifically: • NONcompetitive salary • call center-style workload • unattainable goals / bonuses • no career advancement opportunities • no continuing education or training • consultative, sales role turned into past due collector • no autonomy • product doesn't work • constant technical issues both internal & external • incredibly 'reactive' business approach • manipulative & deceiving business practices • terrible communication between internal departments, management & clients • feel like 2nd class employees to sister company employees at HomeAdvisor • TO BE FAIR, I've worked in the account management/client success department at Angie's List for 6+ years; and the majority of that time, it was a great environment and place to be. The work was tough, but the comp plan made it worth the tough conversations and long days. **Currently, though, I've never felt more underappreciated, overworked, underpaid, and de-valued.** It's an absolute terrible place to be right now. Please (PLEASE), heed this warning, whether you're considering a job in sales or client success at AL and look elsewhere. I heard ChikFilA offers nice benefits, competitive pay, productive training and an encouraging, supportive management system!
