TOXIC
|
|
Everyone is easy to get along with. Very nice office.
|
Pay: Near poverty wages for a Seattle Sales job. Your commission checks will actually keep getting smaller. They also transfer Sales immediately from an AE to an AM & if the customer cancels, they take it out of the AM's check (who didn't sell it)
Completely unprofessional: People are having a party while you're on the phone.
Little to no diversity: They seem only interested in having a predominantly White, male Sales floor & they behave like they're in a fraternity. They let some people stay at home on office days all the time when they're not sick.
Management is extremely inexperienced & they give preferential treatment. They help who they like. If they don't like you they'll set you up for failure & just not help you.
They completely ignore how their top sales reps actually lose more than they earn the company monthly because they're dishonest & sell a bunch of 3 month contracts that cancel. Lately a lot of attorneys are canceling in the 1st or 2nd month, and they take it out of the AM's check vs addressing the AE who actually sold it.
Zero flexibility: They want you in the office, 3 days a week literally glued to your desk, pounding calls nonstop.
No morals or integrity: People are cramming customers w/ contracts by giving them false promises.. anything to get them to sign the contract. Every day you will have a few angry people, as well as a few cancels a week! It's the highest customer churn you will EVER see.
Office: Has an unlimited supply of candy, junk food & sweets because they only let you have a 30 minute lunch. They've got about 12 options, all EXTREMELY bad for your health, because they want everyone amped.

This isn't a Sales job it's Customer Service & you need to just change the job title.
Stop killing your staff with pounds of sugar. Provide healthy options like fruit & nuts.
Any reputable Sales job has clear, written rules of engagement.
Stop cheating people out of commissions subjectively.
Create a fair living wage. This is WAY below Seattle pay ranges for the amount of work.
Stop ignoring blatant unethical behavior to keep revenue

|

Cool office space with good snacks.
|
They don't not provide good feedback and always try to find faults with your work. I went on be a successful AE at another tech company so it's clear the hostile environment fostered here wasn't working.

Spacious office with dogs and snacks
|
Office is spacious because an entire floor is vacant & most of the sales floor is empty space, it's just a skeleton crew now. People leave & get fired here very often, even if managers are personally nice it's hard to ever feel safe or comfortable.

Great Place to work
|
|
Managment is easy to talk to very flexible schedule.
|
More product training. This would benefit as ongoing throughout employment. I believe that if this company invested more in employees for sales training and identifying opportunities, I believe that Avvo would have less of a turnover. Even the best teams need training.

Overall Positive Experience
|
|
I was provided with a large book of business which included some significantly large accounts, making quota attainable. Management is very caring across all teams and provides great support. The office is nice and modern.
|
Avvo needs to invest more in marketing to the general public. I also felt internet brands are forcing too much change at once and that is causing our clients to be confused and ultimately frustrated. I understand changes must be made in a business to move forward but felt that initiatives were being implemented before they were fully ironed out.

I thought that management was amazing. There is a healthy environment here and I always felt like I could turn to any manager (even on other teams) to help with an issue.
