Pros

Good products, Great Dealer network, Great field personnel - loved their job.

Cons

The over the top reviews on July 31st - that, in our opinion, is simply embarrassing. How much were people paid or promoted to write thirty 5 star reviews in one day??? You can dress a goat in a tuxedo...but its still a goat! The field people know what's required to try and turn the business around yet they are afraid to speak up now...or when they do, it doesn't make it past the VP. Their predecessors that did so with good intentions, were "eliminated". It still puzzles us that those that influence this good CEO are the same ones that brought a beautiful company to its knees by directing the previous 2 CEO's...and they are all still there??? Wake up Mr. CEO! - clearly you are you drinking their kool aid too.... I just heard that Canada, once the golden child of BM for decades (Not one dealer/employee I've talked to can understand, support why/what they did last year? some of the best people in the business were let go and replaced by ...incompetents?? how?) and an exemplary Brand model of sales and dealer support/alignment is going through a "market correction". Factually, at a high profile dealer event, a recently promoted manager infuriated his dealer "constituents" with an arrogance unheard of before that was so bad it was close to a physical engagement - this is the VP supported mentality towards its customers???

Pros

The staff are wonderful, helpful, hardworking people.

Cons

No benefits, not paid for staff meetings (illegal), no overtime, supposedly time in lieu but never allowed to take the time. Belittled and criticized all the time, making it hard to perform the job properly. NO direct deposit. Often paid at 4 pm on a Saturday after the banks are closed so that cheque is not depositable until 2 days later. High turnover.
