Pros

- Relaxed and casual environment - Merit-Based with room to move into other departments - $180 allowance for lenses on your vision plan! That was nice - If you excel on office politics, gossip, cliques and being a "Yes-Man" then this is the place for you! - My ex-supervisor from when I was hired is a work horse. I admire him for his work ethic, management skills and approach. You would be lucky to work for him. I trusted his leadership in that department

Cons

-You will be fired for NOTHING. I worked hard and got CONSTANT praise, promotion and more. Only to be fired suddenly and refused a reason why. Do not expect any warnings, or to be written up about anything or provided any information on how you could improve at work. You will NOT be given any opportunity to do different. - They do not follow their end of the bargain concerning the Company/Employee Guide, not one process do they follow that's outlined in that material they provide you. I have no idea why they even kill the tree to provide it to you. It does state on almost every page though that its "At-WIll" and will terminate for any reason....yeah no joke *Future employees. my recommendation - do NOT have loyalty if you work here (Don't expect longevity, always look for something better), because they 100% will not for you. Hard work does not pay off at this location, unfortunately you will be seen as competition by others) - In 2 years, never received any formal performance review, just constant raises, promotions then fired! - All departments lack major communication and only care about own department and not the big picture - Owner comes in once every once in awhile, as an intimidation factor, to fire people creating an element of fear....while not really knowing how his business operates due to living out of state. - Also, all current employees are not allowed to speak to old ones (yes, they actualy send out emails concerning this), so don't bother getting close to anyone, because once your gone, everyone will sadly follow that rule

Pros

Nothing good can or will be said.

Cons

They receive your application and the interview goes well. They tell you that your creative position can be remote and you both mutually agree to a schedule. But they keep saying, "We're an at-will company." The work starts and all is fine for a few weeks until: -The term "at-will" is always used during the pre and post employment process -The work load slowly subsides -You ask for more work and get it -Shortly after the word, you get a call from HR saying, "Hi, how are you? I'm sorry, we have to let you go." -The reason does not get revealed -You get told "There was a document with verbiage that went against our company guidelines" and was a form of "misconduct." No, there was no misconduct and CA EDD & Unemployment proved that. Shame on you. Shame on you to defame someone and their profession. The word misconduct is NOT a light word in the professional world, and you'll get what you deserve one day. You put a bad and vulgar word to the term professionalism.

Pros

The Director of Sales out of CA is very kind and does her best to keep the team alive. The marketing team and CS/Tech team are great people to work with. You can make good money and work from home. You will hit your target sales goals. There is extensive training on the product and a great ramp period. The health benefits are fantastic. At the end of the day the product is solid and helps the clients.

Cons

The CMO put it best when he said the sales office was a toxic work environment and the company makes it hard from an operational level to get a deal closed. The people working here have very little understanding of what a professional environment should look like and how it should operate as they have very little collective work experience outside of GPS TrackIt. The team is abnormally rude, crass and condescending and management does nothing to stop it as long as the person is hitting their numbers each month. This is beyond a normal competitive "sales environment," people aren't actively trying to undercut their team to steal a lead, this is in personal interactions. People on the team who have found favor with management will be given extra leads either directly from management under the radar or from the client services team. If you are in, you're golden, if you're out, you will have to fight for each unit sold. If you escalate concerns about the professionalism of the team, or concerns about favoritism, you will get push back and be punished in ways that are hard to prove. Expectations of what you are to do each day change constantly and inconsistently. One day you need to be on the phone 8 hours, the next, as long as you hit your numbers it doesn't matter when you work, the next, management docks your vacation time without asking you first because they felt you didn't work hard enough the day before. The next day you need to make 40 calls, then the next week its 80 calls a day, the next "it doesn't matter how many calls you make," the next month it is 60 calls. When you ask if it is being enforced for everyone on the team, you get a dodgy response abut how it doesn't matter what everyone else is doing, mind your own business. If someone who has found favor with management complains about you, you will be penalized. Period. Call volumes increased, decrease in leads coming in, or maybe a schedule change, who knows. The bottom line is the people they want to exceed their numbers will do so because they get help. It is not a coincidence that people who are unliked or raise concerns just barely hit their target, while people who are personal friends with management or are favored hit their number 2x-3x. There is too much of an extremely obvious gap month after month between various people on the team for any other explanation. Your job is to make the management look good, and if you don't you will be penalized. It is hard to take any time off because the sales cycles can be so short and because they don't want you to, you only get 2 weeks anyways. You will be tied to this job and your desk every day. You will have random meetings you must attend on short notice. You will have a mandatory schedule implemented without notice. You are at the mercy of 3 different customer support teams and poorly managed inventory, and if they don't keep your clients happy you will lose money through claw back. The C level team does not listen to the employees and does not value their feedback. Bringing issues to their attention is seen as disloyalty and bringing ideas is seen as arrogance. There is no opportunity for career advancement, period. People spend decades in this same position. They do not promote from within our value the past experiences of the newer current employees.
