The salary is only $22,000, which is more than the average McDonald’s assistant manager salary. The company states you’re paid salary, but this statement isn’t true at all. If your activity is low for a particular day or not working until 5pm, they could determine to pay you or not. Salary is you get a fixed amount no matter how many hours you put in. This isn’t really salary based.
The company is so obsessive and pressures their sales force about breaking sales records and exceeding unrealistic sales quotas, they could care less about unexpected circumstances that could take place in their sales consultants’ lives. True Story: A few months back, I’d received tragic news about a personal matter. I’d notified management early in the morning that I was not able to work on that day due to a personal emergency. Later that afternoon, management had called me to discuss the matter of increasing my door knocks (number of businesses I go to on a daily basis) even when I was one of the top sales consultants in the company. This clearly shows they don’t care about their sales consultants and it’s all about their client Constellation!
Have to make a minimum of 3 sales per month, which is a set criteria from Constellation. So, if someone closed the largest account in history or closes 40 sales in one month; the sales consultant would be fired from making only 2 sales the following month. This doesn’t make any sense at all.
The sales consultants’ territories are too small to consider this as a long term career. The turnover rate is extremely high and it’s set up as a Churn and Burn Sales Company!
Hardly paid anything in advance to cover gas expenses or car depreciation while working. If you do the math, the amount of money a sales consultant makes isn’t much at all. They say you can make six figures, but only 1 or 2 sales consultants within the entire company have an income that’s somewhat close to that amount.
