Pros

Pay and bonuses are what keep people around. Management does listen to your opinions but hardly implements them. PTO isn’t bad

Cons

Extreme micromanagement. Clocking in and out isn’t necessary for salaried employees. Company culture is nearly nonexistent. All focus is on sales and little appreciation for corporate from management. Since they are a subsidiary everything has to run through the parent company and is micromanaged.

Pros

Fast paced work environment. CRM is the best I have ever had access to. Data tracking and sales insight is top notch. The regional director for TSS in Michigan/Indiana is great to work under. Leads are easily available, the product is great and it’s easy to get in the door places.

Cons

Metrics are more focused on quantity over quality. Frequently working 50+ hour weeks. Too many reps per territory and it can create a negative perception. Bonus structure vs straight commission is frusterating. Clear advancement structure however being ranked against peers with different sales targets in frusterating. Feels like a turn and burn type of mentality towards sales reps.
