Just a Job - Anonymous employee SharpDots Employee Review

Owner treated me like family

Cons are that they need to hire

Pros Open door policy with the GM, John Tan Management staff is open to ideas Estimating and IT staff are knowledgeable Lots of opportunities to establish a decent working relationship with external companies A great company to learn how to spin/sell, with heavy problem solving opportunities Uncapped Commission for sales staff, of about 2% of all printed marketing material sales Flexible commission rates for all additional marketing channels

Cons High turnover rate: In my time with the company, there have been over 20+ Reps Terrible working environment – Stressful interpersonal interaction Volume is more important than anything Management creates an unstable work environment with poor motivation and leadership; negative examples, constantly flustered No incentives for any level of positive performance Sales reps act like sharks with one another’s accounts, rather than working as a cohesive team Behind the curve with limited experience in the future marketing; e.g. Social Media, Email campaigns, etc No advertising or marketing – Leaving sales rep’s to fend for themselves and rely on pricing or embellished quality to get an edge and land a job Lack of structured and progressive company marketing While you are encouraged to provide ideas, none are actually followed through on to any extent Complaint rate and error rates are significantly high, adding to the already stressful work environment No growth potential – Positions are limited with no advancements possible Not a long term career choice
