Svantaggi
Sales approach is old-school pound the streets mentality. Lack of sales productivity is always blamed on a lack of phone calls, cold calls or appointments. While activity is important, it does not explain why only 10% of the company sales team is able to make their sales quota. The training is over-rated by management and most new reps are left to hope that a senior rep takes pitty on them and helps show them the ropes. Many sucessful reps end up leaving for greener pastures. Make sure you know all the rules of the comp plan. The finance department has a reputation of being very difficult to deal with when there are compensation issues and short of going to arbitration, there are no appeals. Sales quota is based on a points system, not on revenue. The points are arbitrary and do not equate to dollars sold.
