Sales and Marketing at AVG Automation - Marketing Executive bei AVG Automation: Mitarbeiterbewertung

If you love technology and you want to learn and grow professionally, this is the place to be. You will get trained from the best teachers in the world, whether it is design, quality, manufacturing, sales, marketing, finance, IT, or of course Application Engineering. But you better be prepared to work hard and be super diligent and motivated. You will grow very fast, within the organization that has 42,000 employees worldwide, or outside AVG where some of the students trained at AVG are now earning high five figure salaries

If you do not belong or want to belong to the top twenty percent club of Jack Welsh, Man of the Century for Business, Chairman of GE, and Andy Grove, Founder of Intel, AVG Automation is not a place for you.

- Popcorn Fridays, other employees were very nice and fun to be around. - Does understand that family issues come up (sick kids, etc...) - 3 weeks vacation after 5 years - Good resume builder in the manufacturing/automation industry

- Pay isn't up to par with industry standard along with the commission structure (which is also not very good and strangely done). Maybe put together a good bonus plan along with good pay and employees might stick around longer than 4 months. - Quality of products and technology is lacking BIG TIME. Hard to compete with other automation companies like Automation Direct, Red Lion, Omron, Maple, etc...when your products aren't up to par with their features. - Speaking of quality, I am not sure if the testing protocol needs to be changed, but this is one of the biggest issues here. You might sell 10 HMIs or PLCs and 3-5 of them will come back with defects. It's very frustrating to bring on a brand new customer, only for them to leave in a year because product doesn't work. If you want to gain 5 new customers and lose 10 and run your business that way go ahead I guess... - The "professional" training left a little to be desired. - The owner runs the show, including sales and customer service departments. He is a very talented engineer, but his people and marketing skills are lacking. He doesn't know how to treat employees with respect. - Mandatory 50 hour work week. Honestly this would be just fine typically, but the pay doesn't match up.
