Losing money - Salesman Team Leader Capital One Promotions Employee Review

- Very poor commission pay, - working in all types of weather (poring rain/snow/hail), - if you don't work you don't get paid, - slave labour, - pyramid scheme, - poor payment system with the bond scheme (lose out on lots of interest money), - young persons game, - if you like walking miles every day and potentially driving to other vends of the country its bare able. - pay for your own travel, - car expenses are £5 a day and ridiculous if you get car damage/miles building up, - people in your team have to split petrol with yourself, - half of your wages in your bond don't get paid to you for 5 months and that's IF you secured the sale and the customer doesn't pull out until then. - start work at 11, training until 1pm then drive to your days territory (potentially not getting there til 6pm depending on distance) then working until 9pm, then having to drive back to the office and everyone home and do your paper work (IF you made a sale) at the office. Easily and often 12 hour days of working. - high number of employees come and go FAST, - stressful, - sales pitch heavy, - psychological selling to assorts of people, young and old. - if you sell to someone below 25 you don't get commission but you have to go through with the sale so you don't look bad for the companies contractors (which wastes your time). - if you sell to someone over 70 the company don't give you your commissions. - if you sell to someone on the offenders register and even if you didn't know you don't get your commissions. - getting promoted between ground level and management level doesn't give you financial benefits - just more responsibilities and you also have to attend work earlier for a briefing... 10.30am. - bribary to work longer hours - making incentives that don't make it worth while. - no social life at all out of work hours as you end up going to events, training and socials on the weekends too.
