Pros

The other salesman and customer service reps are great people. The manager is flexible and is OK if you have to skip work for an emergency.

Cons

I was mislead about compensation. Employees had to fight to get paid. One was behind 7k on his commission. The owner doesn't care about the employees. The first day I was there we were told to work hard because we're all replaceable. No benefits. Employees often owe the company money due to commission strategy. Sales script had lies to the customer. We were told to lie to customers if asked what the name of our company was.

Start New Financial Response
10y
We appreciate the feedback you have given us at Start New Financial. We apologize that you feel as if you were mislead about the compensation for the position. If you refer back to the initial job posting, you will see that there is a salary range that is listed and that is the guideline that is followed all the way through the interview process and training. It is true that we do offer a commission structure, but it is untrue that we have left our employees unpaid. If you were not compensated in some way, we are happy to discuss that with you, but we can not discuss the earning of other employees aside from yourself who have not expressed dissatisfaction. As is with any sales position, there is a higher turn over because sales is not a career that is for everyone, so we would like to apologize if it offended you that the owner stressed the need to replace those who aren't producing. In addition, we do not lie to our clients, but if you would like to discuss any of your concerns with us further, you can email hr@startnewfinancial.com and we would be happy to accommodate you! Best of luck in your future career endeavors.
