Management forward - Sales Velocity Transport Employee Review

Pros

-You can still become a manager or something else if you cannot sell

Cons

-Designed to hire reps and fire them after their customers become house accounts -The company asks their employees to write reviews so this should be considered when reading the reviews below -I was a top performer and they fired me for the sake of keeping a halo on a very unethical employee and they never gave me a chance to talk about my issue with another manager. They will fire top performers before hearing them out and keep people who fail to produce. -Questions about the job and how to improve are not welcomed here -Manager restricts any communication with HR, other sales managers, or sales director for his own sake

We are disappointed in this review and would like to address the many factual inaccuracies on display here. Velocity Transport does not transition accounts into house accounts. In fact, we encourage our employees to treat their desk as their own small business; our culture is built on that level of autonomy. We do ask for reviews in order to monitor team satisfaction, but we do not request positive employee reviews and do not incentivize them. It is also not in our best interest ethically, culturally, or financially to terminate employees without first pursuing alternative solutions. We offer performance counseling, weekly check-ins, and have an open-door policy so any team member can discuss any concerns with our leadership team. Outside of performance, team members are terminated most often for not living up Velocity core values, not treating customers and teammates with respect, and/or refusing to follow company processes. We kindly request this review be deleted or amended to reflect the truth.

We appreciate you taking the time to review Velocity Transport on Glassdoor. We hear regularly from candidates that they visited our Glassdoor page to gain a better understanding of what It is like to work here so your feedback is invaluable. We are glad that you feel our environment is fun to be a part of. We believe that it is our responsibility to promote an engaging environment that people enjoy working in. All of our current leadership team has been promoted from within. If that is a path you are interested in, I encourage you to speak to your manager about your interest in growth within Velocity. It is our goal to provide developmental opportunities for our teammates who are interested in a management path so they will be ready as the business grows and the opportunity presents itself.
