Cons

Even though our annual leave is supposed to be an entitlement. we are required to hit out sales target before applying for the leave. We are also required to have our sales pipeline before applying for annual leave or else the leave will be rejected or there simply will be no response from those in-charge. There is a 20% pay cut if we do not reach our sales target It feels as though when higher management wants to get rid of an employee they don't just fire them instead they push the employee to a point they'd resign themselves. Probably so that they do not need to compensate them via severance. The leaders of the sub sections seem to always be gossiping and even to a point where they spread rumors and gossip about both employees and other leaders too. Our leaders constantly play the guilt trip game to a point where even though our working hours is stated as 0830-1730 almost no one leaves at 1730 including the temporary and contract staff. Keep in mind we are not paid OT and it's near impossible to meet sales target put in place by our higher ups unless we stay in after hours to do no pay OT and in some occasions we are even forced to stay back. There are SO many different kinds of meetings. Daily sales meeting, weekly sales meeting, monthly sales meeting, quarterly sales meeting. Upper management seem to never take any feedback from their employees. Even though there is a co-broke system. Upper management will move some numbers around to other peers who require sales. There is no trust between leader and employees. Any secrets or personal issue raised to a leader will spread like wild fire in the form of gossip among the leaders. There is so much favoritism and bias in the upper management. As long as they like certain employees they will keep them around and dismiss any poor performance. Employee retention is very low and upper management will easily let people go. Which makes us feel extremely expendable. In turn, there is a high employee turn over rate. Which makes one of my pros "Friendly colleagues" quite obsolete. Higher management don't seem to be able to sense employee morale and happiness. It feels as though they only worry about the sales.
