        Genuinely none. Poor, over promoted Managers who lie to cover their own failings ... this was pre-sale of the software division earlier this year

        Unrealistic targets, moving goal posts, fast pace is code for not being able to stick to a strategy. This is a dog eat dog company

                      If you are prepared to work hard and want a career in sales this is a great place to work. Numerous people have been promoted and get the support and training they need to succeed in their new roles. New ways of working have been put in place to give everyone the best opportunity to hit targets and earn commission. Some of the new bonus incentives are amazing! The company is growing year on year with sets itself ambitious growth targets but it means it’s a company that’s really going somewhere!

                      There can be a lot of change but that’s why there are so many opportunities to learn and grow!

                      Alex L.

                      Applied for a job a few weeks back, got a call from HR yesterday morning about an interview next week. She mentioned she'd shoot me an email with all the interview details, but so far, my inbox is empty. Assuming I'll hear from her early next week, is it normal for them to expect me to show up for an in-person interview on short notice, like couple days?
