Vantaggi
- Good work / life balance - Even as a newbie you get to go to America for training. - Also get to go to America for sales kick off - Great for someone who wants quite an easy first job - Good place to go for underperformers (its virtually impossible to lose your job here) - Good location (most similar jobs are much more central with that horrible pollution) in a really nice place - Richmond.
Svantaggi
- Management pay absolutely no attention to the employees - Lazy culture and a massive ceiling on what you can earn because of the nature of the accounts you are managing - Some really, really genuinely stupid leaders in charge of both the new business (Sales development and territory executives) and the account management team - Completely uninspiring leadership all round with the possible exception of Christian who, to his credit, has some personality and is quite funny. - Management make very questionable decisions - a couple of some of the best performing employees at the more junior end of the scale were let go for what seemed to me to be virtually no reason and without any real explanation - Lazy culture, people don't do a lot of work over a sustained period of time and get away with it - Targets for the account managers are ridiculously high and unachievable. - Targets for the new business team are even worse. - Some really pointless meetings that all the sales team are made to attend where absolutely nothing is achieved.
