Sales is sales. Anyone who works in it would be able to tell you that. However at WW it's very different. Pricing doesn't seem to be realistic market to market. Rural farm people aren't going to be able to pay the same thing as people in downtown Dallas. Yet, salespeople are hung out to dry trying to hit unrealistic goals.
If you don't come in and impress management from the start, they'll stick you in impossible territories until you quit or they get to fire you. They have a chosen few who they decide will be the next stars and they'll get all the praise and the big territories. They literally only care about final results. You can be a terrible employee and miss work, come late, leave early and have a terrible attitude, but if you sell, you're promoted up the chain quickly. Other reviewers are correct that there are high school style cliques all over the office.
Top sales performers use stimulant drugs and brag about it in the office. Everyone knows that Ritalin use is common and definitely not only by people it's prescribed to. If your employees need to do drugs to hit their goals, clearly the goals are unrealistic.
Outside hires to fill management roles instead of promoting from within started a chain reaction that led to several long tenured sales reps leaving. Reps continue to leave at a high rate.
