Glassdoor reviews

Someone else said this perfectly: I feel like Glassdoor broke up with me. There are a LOT of us who were hired with a promise of certain benefits, work style, and career development. But they have recently just decided to change all this and force employees to go from exempt to non-exempt - even people who have been here for years - based on their job title/status and strip them away of their benefits. Our so called "unlimited" PTO is now restricted to 15 days and to make that worse, we're now only starting with 7 days. What if we didn't take much vacation over the years? But it goes beyond PTO. The majority of us that took the offers took it with everything it has to offer, including the ability to give it our all. That means loving the hours we work outside of the office, no matter how long it is, because we love what we do and we want to contribute all that we got. But now, with a strict 40 hour week (and some departments aren't even granting OT because of budget reasons), how are we supposed to do this? Some of us have huge projects, deals, clients that we want to take full responsibility for...but now we can't. We have to pass it on to other "exempt" employees. Like someone else said, this feels like we've just got grounded and belittled. How are we supposed to feel that we're valued? People are ACTUALLY saying that they're exempt because their job is more valued, or fancier. This is wrong and this is not the culture we, or I, signed up for. We all love what we do, no matter what level we are. I want to love coming into work, knowing that I'm bringing the same amount of value as everyone else. If I don't feel that way, that's wrong.

1- New comp plan: I'm being told that I need to sell more, while getting less commission. So I basically have to work harder and get paid the same or less (VERY likely we will make less as the goals are lofty). We are regressing, not progressing. This is drastic even by industry standards The mid-level managers are going to bat for us and trying to make things fair and keep us happy. But we have no insight into these things and it's hard for us to keep believing that the team has their best interest out for us. Is there a way to make us more involved in these conversations so we aren't blindsided? When I'm told as an employee that I don't deserve an increase in pay because of a stellar performance last year and it's going to be harder for me to make the same amount of money. Soul crushing...you just took away all my sales mojo :( 2. Unable to make decisions in a reasonable time: Pricing needs fixing ASAP. I understand we are reviewing but this is urgent and has been going on since last year. There are so many layers of approvals that it's hurting us on the front lines. This also goes for territory shifts and changes. I can't tell you the number of times I've heard "we are doing scoring" What is the scoring? Can we see it? Everything is in a black box and we only hear about it on Friday afternoons (seriously, every comp plan, quota, territory email). There is going to be fallout, don't be afraid to address it 3. Sales Ops: They rule the roost and management has no authority over them whatsoever (seems that way). Aren't the sales team their internal customer? I'm not saying we need world class service, but clear communication, email responses, quotes that work and don't change things without telling us would be nice. Honestly, I'd rather deal with my cable company
