Crooks from the top

Pros

None unless you are a crook and don't mind ripping off customers.

Cons

The whole place is riddled with crooks, this comes from the very top in Miami to all the managers. It seem if you get a Manager thats good and honest they don't last. Managers always talking about how the other store managers manipulate sales to make their goals. They suck up to upper management even though they hate them just to keep their job. They will throw anyone under the bus to save themselves. Take a look at the jobs always advertised, they cannot keep anyone. They do not care about the customer only how much junk you can sell them, and when it comes time to help they customer you are told not to until it escalates then you are the one in trouble. They change the rules every day so you really never know what your doing. Yesterday it was okay but today it's not. Morale sucks as you are always being threatend with your job even though they do not have the product advertised.

Boiler room environment.

Pros

I get my own cubicle.

Cons

Very poor infrastructure. Training is non-existent. Most employees and managers are technologically ignorant. Tools provided to employees to help manage and grow the business are laughable. Sales leads are a joke. Senior account managers get fed large accounts, while mid and low-level managers have to scrounge for scraps. Commission structure is confusing and setup so that account managers don't get maximum pay for their work. The only way to earn a decent income is to sell lots of warranties and SPIFF'd product. Base salary is a joke compared to similar companies. There is zero opportunity for career advancement.

Pros

It is a job It is in the technology field, and if you can last, you gain work experience Some of the people there are nice to work with

Cons

Employees are not valued The processes needed are not yet well-developed enough to implement their far reaching plans The environment is one of constant fear of being fired The economic downturn has resulted in reduced staff instead of changing the formula, causing poor customer satisfaction and frustrated employees
