Vantaggi

Nice on-site gym, good bonuses if they hit certain growth metrics, and some cool co-workers. There is a T stop on the red line that is in the parking lot.

Svantaggi

Where to start.... well you will hit it big at Granite if you can buddy up with one of the senior sales reps and when upper management TELLS you to jump, you politely ask them "how high?" Business hours are 8:00-5:00 but don't be fooled they actually mean 7:30-5:30 minimum. Lunch hour is 12:00-12:59. DO NOT leave your seat at 11:59 and make sure to already be in your seat at 1:00. There are about 1500 employees at the Quincy headquarters with only 4 ways in and out of the parking lot ( 1 of which is shared with another business). So you could imagine what the parking lot looks like at 8am, 12pm, 1pm, and 5pm. My car received damage on 2 different occasions with no notes. Everyone is required to have a parking pass so who ever did it could have easily found out who I was and contacted me. They fluff up the job and convince you that you can make millions. They do pay well for big sales commissions and once you grow your book of business but that does not happen without help from upper management. They hand out freebies to people they like and if you are not on that list you will sift through the worst leads and maybe get a couple sales but never hit quota. Soon after that they will let you go with almost no notice. The internal process is horrific. The issues start at the bottom and run all the way up. No communication between departments. New procedures and policies that are not shared with everyone. They are relying on 1 main product which is on its way out. Frantically trying to create a niche for them selves and not seeing the big picture. I had extremely high hopes for Granite and was very disappointed with the outcome. Good luck.

No pros what so ever.

Svantaggi

This company and specifically the collections department have very little opportunity for growth, despite what may be promised during the hiring process. Honestly, it’s a circus. Non stop tasks are thrown at employees each day. And Goals are constantly increased so analyst can’t reach them. Employees who work hard and consistently perform well often find themselves stuck in the same position with no clear path for advancement. Promotions and opportunities never appear to be based on performance or merit. Management is one of the biggest issues. They have no clue. Favoritism is prevalent, and certain employees seem to receive special treatment, better opportunities, and more support than others. This creates a frustrating and discouraging work environment where many employees feel undervalued and overlooked. Morale suffers when performance and dedication are overlooked in favor of personal relationships and when there is little accountability for management and no transparency regarding career development. Communication from leadership is lacking, and employee concerns are not addressed. Management gets defensive when employees ask questions or disagree with their stupid decisions. Overall, it can be a VERY challenging place to build a longterm career if you are looking for fair treatment, professional growth, and strong leadership. Turnover rate is very high. Also, micro management is at an all time high. Would not even recommend this place to a college grad for entry level experience, if i could Put 0 stars, i would. For the sake of your mental health, stay far away.
