I do not know where to begin. My time at Dillon Supply was a series of unfortunate events. Here are some of the issues I encountered and dealt with during my time at the company:
- Virtually no training
- High turnover: The Charlotte branch went through three warehouse managers in a year and decided it was a good idea to have a temp manage the entire warehouse. They eventually fired the temp and relied on a driver to pull orders. Additionally, they fired an inside rep and never brought in a replacement. Because of the lack of help in the warehouse, many outside reps had to come in and pull their own orders.
- Product manager turnover: We lost our entire PVF team, abrasive/welding specialist, and storage and handling specialist.
- Slow inside sales team: It would take days to get quotes back.
- Two-faced manager: Do not work at the Charlotte branch.
- New commission structure: Upper management decided to take even more money away from reps.
- Slow and outdated system
- Horrible inventory management
I could go on all day, but I don't have time to write 20 pages on how bad this company is.
