"High transparency" = Micro management

Sales representative

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

- Pantry & Benefits - A little higher than avg salary - Young, energetic, smart colleagues

Cons

- EXTREMELY micro managed (Is literally a "stalking" internal system, badge in- out of the office) - Rude and arrogant upper management - Is all about "sucking up" to the manager/TL, your performance is 99% rated on how much your boss adores you. - As a sales, your revenue target has nothing to do with your compensation. Even those who brings in a minimal revenue has a higher bonus than those who contributes a lot more. Again, it depends on what they call "manager's discretion" (i.e. how much your boss loves you).

Pros

Great work-life balance. Easy to move up career wise after 1-2 years of work. Great benefits, and ability to move around the company is fairly easy.

Cons

Overall great place to work. At times it can be difficult dealing with angry or disgruntled clients. Putting in for time off has to be done very far in advance .
