Bad commission plan - Outside Sales Representative WESCO International Employee Review

Pros

Not that many other than unlimited PTO and 401K matching at 8%.

Cons

Bad management. Boys club- no one really seems to like women being around and are often dismissive. Bad commission plan/structure. They actually make it harder to make your commission by tripling your required numbers every year. Commission is not based off of sales dollars, but a percent of a percent of a percent of your mark up per sale. It's the most unfair and strangest system I have ever seen. Lot's of unhappy employees.

Pros

Strategic partnerships across internal departments; access to leverage multiple partners, SME, tools, resources to win opportunities; education/training opportunities are expansive and accessible. Great work culture!

Cons

So big, we get in our own way; escalating to problem-solve is extremely laborious and tedious to get standardized unified KPIs for consistency/expectations. Terrible onboarding for new hires; lowers morale from the beginning-on your own to figure it out if you do not have an organized, attention-to-detail manager-too long to help have experienced talent be turn-key since the applications/CRMs are extremely outdated; finding who you need to get an answer is cumbersome; if you do not know people, you will take that much longer to find the right internal partner to assist with basic tasks.
