Stay away from Sales - Outbound Sales bei Intuit: Mitarbeiterbewertung

I don't even know where to begin. If you are anywhere but the sales department then your life is gravy. They treat sales like cattle at a slaughter farm. They choose their favorites and leave everyone else behind. They won't go to battle for you. One manager in particular has been protecting his "teacher's pets" and helping them get promoted even though one was caught red-handed cheating. What did the manager do when it was brought to his attention? He fired 5 other people just to keep his little buddy employed. The metrics this company asks you to produce is absurd. Work life balance does not exist in sales. The managers are a fraternity and they could care less about their employees. The pay does not equate the amount of work they ask from you. All they care about is your call numbers. The amount of money you bring it means nothing unless you made 100 calls while doing so, per day. They have no idea how to compensate the outbound sales team. The comp plan changes week to week. They have no idea what they are doing. You can be the most efficient worker on the sales floor but if the manager doesn't like you then you can kiss any hope of development goodbye. Its a popularity contest and the managers are the judge. My advice is to stay away from sales at this company at all costs, especially if you are early in your career.
