Growth Struggles - Inside Account Executive Renaissance Learning Employee Review

Pros

The benefits and compensation are competitive. The product portfolio is overall strong.

Cons

Expectations are unrealistic which hurts my income and moral. Also seems to be favoritism by management. One example is that they started a work from home program but are only allowing it to certain reps. They say there is criteria to meet but they've allowed several reps to be a part of the program that did not meet this criteria. They've also hired reps full time that never have to report to the office while those who have been here for years and even won several awards do not get this benefit. We get weekly reviews with our manager which can also add to the stress level.

Renaissance Learning Response

Thank you for your feedback. In 2017, we piloted a work-from-home program with a select group of high-performing Inside Account Executives. Also, we offered the option to a small number of colleagues who were facing difficult personal circumstances. Based on the pilot’s success, in 2018, we have implemented the program for all account executives. In fact, now more than 50% of our account executives are already working from home. – Samir Joglekar, EVP, Sales and Services

Pros

Some of the most amazing people you’ll ever work with. Generally supportive peers. Leaders are kind and not intentionally toxic. Strong brand recognition and a variety of solutions to enable solution selling.

Cons

The culture of the organization seems to have succumbed to the broader climate surrounding politics and education. Immense pressure is placed on sales team to deliver in saturated territories with beyond unachievable quotas for some and cake quotas for others. No cost of living increases, lots of layoffs and unclear path for growth with an egregious lack of transparency from leadership about the glaring issues. NONE of this seems intentional or malicious-it just seems like a lot of behaviors caused by extreme desperation.
