Pros

Become your own boss with pep talks

Cons

The position posted is a bait and switch. KAM is considered a sales position within a retail store to sell AT&T to customers within Walmart and Target. Not exactly a manager but a sales person within a retail store. Want to be THAT person who is annoying in the electronics department selling AT&T? Then this gig is for you.

Thank you for your feedback. I'm sorry to hear that you didn't enjoy your time with us. One of the reasons we have such a thorough interview process is to ensure that people fully understand the position before they start. I'm disappointed that you didn't feel like it was what you expected from the job title. I can understand that you thought a key account manager was a manager position. It's actually an account manager position, meaning that we do sales and manage customer's existing accounts for At&t. There is a lot of growth into a managerial position in the future, but we only promote from within so you would start doing retail sales and also managing key customers accounts . Those that are successful doing this have an opportunity to grow into a management position within the first few years.

Thank you for your feedback. I'm glad to hear that you felt that we compensated you well and that you were able to further develop your skills. And I agree with you, we do like to create a competitive environment. I can see how, at times, we might get a little too competitive and we need to lighten it up. In the last few months we've made some changes to bring a more fun environment to work and I think everyone feels like it's better. On the cons side I'm confused by your response of no safety. We have offered an hourly pay since our first day in business and while you need to hit targets to earn additional commissions, you will ALWAYS get paid the hourly even if you didn't do any sales. Regardless, thank you for your feedback, it helps us always focus on getting better.

Pros

Started with Googlobal 9 years ago and I have loved it ever sense. With the Googlobal team I have had the opportunity to grow my career and work with some of the most influential leaders in the company. My favorite part about this organization is the culture. Although we work hard to achieve our goals, we have a strong team environment and a lot of fun. Not to mention I have been able to travel various parts of the world with Grooglobal, which is pretty awesome too.

Cons

Working here is not always easy. Grooglobal has a lot of opportunity for those who want it. In these 9 years I have been able to develop my career to give me the work, life balance that I need, but I had to work to get here. This is not a clock in clock out job. It is an opportunity to build a career.

Thank you for your feedback and candor. You're right, it's not always easy but we like to use a famous quote... "if it doesn't challenge you, it doesn't change you!". Thank you for the years you've already given the company. I can't wait to see what you will accomplish next :)
