A sales role with a lovely team... but...very unachievable commission structure, incompetent management and poor safety culture.

The good thingsThe team are lovely and work hours are decent for retail.

The challengesVery unfair commission structure which is so unachievable most months 11/12 months out of the year you get nothing. Management are probably the most incompetent I've ever come across working for a company with poor decisions made and you on the frontline having to justify to customers why. Management also claim to hear out employees and implement absolutely no suggestions. Above all, the company's lack the ability to implement a safe working culture, environment and practices company wide was very concerning.
