Low Pay and Poor Culture - Sales Manager International Conference Services Employee Review

Work from home Focus on creating a community

The community they are trying to create is fake and no one is actually into it - really false. Cheap assets / work property / computer. I was essentially given a vintage computer LOW PAY

100% fully remote and flexible schedule

If you’re in your probationary period, pay attention. The issues you see early on don’t disappear after three months. They’re part of the culture. Leadership is disconnected from the reality of the work and makes decisions without understanding operational impact, leading to constant last-minute scrambling. Gaps in direction are often reframed as “taking initiative,” leaving teams to solve leadership-level problems themselves with little/no guidance. There’s little meaningful support or development, and mistakes are remembered longer than strong performance. The recent company offsite felt like a forced congratulatory event for leadership rather than a time to work on productively identifying department roadblocks and solutions. Yet, every single department acknowledged a lack of clarity around processes and scope. For a 50-year-old company, that level of misalignment signals that systems and infrastructure are consistently deprioritized in favor of chasing large contracts and big clients. Compensation is not competitive given the workload and expectations every team faces. Overall, it’s a reactive, siloed environment where people are undervalued and long-term planning is lacking.
