CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Get to see new tech

Cons

Too many kpi's and bickering between stores. Management can be quite numbers orientated rather than people orientated. No set structure to shift patterns and if request days off then seen as less available. Bonus scheme is just pants. All too much just for basic salary or 10p above minimum wage

Great company, too pushy!

Sales advisor

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great opportunities within the company: competitions, training, etc. Very financially rewarding if targets are met and if you work bank holidays. Along with great team spirit within the sales team!

Cons

Some targets are very trying - where the company says "tailor the solution to the customer" - if behind target this motto is completely abandoned and a sell anything to anyone approach is taken.

"They are so focused on care plans & services and high over priced high margin add-ons with pushy mangers to succeed".

Business Outlook

Pros

You will meet some good colleges maybe even make friends to help through the battle of each day of meeting your massive amounts of sales targets you will also learn of technical aspects of computers and software sales marketing strategies finance & leasing options within there rigid NLP Training program.

Cons

The company reputation is very bad, low pay for what expectations are wanted from colleagues on a monthly basis, no commission. Ridged vague sales & training modules which are supposed to give you a chance of improvement in your development & increase wages which could take years to move up the ladder on completion.To much focus on over priced what ever happens care plan( 80% profit) & services with add-ons included which people do not want or need, Unfortunately its NUMBERS & THE HARD SELL so watch out customers.
