    1. 2.0
      Former Employee, more than 1 year

      Long hours, average pay, poor leadership practices & culture

      26 Jun 2021 - Specialist, Customer Marketing in Toronto, ON
      Recommend
      CEO Approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - You don't need lots of relevant experience to join the team (Managers train you up) - Good projects and cross-functional leadership opportunities - Challenging work environment

      Cons

      - Lots of turnover - Poor culture (long hours, competitive and stressful, big focus on projects over people, serious vibe, old school leadership practices) - Compensation is very average - If a Manager doesn't like you, you get limited visibility & opportunities to grow - No separate salary band for experienced professionals (new grads come in as specialists) - Poor leadership: management engages in a lot of credit stealing, command and control leadership style, expect to be micromanaged and ignored for your contributions in meetings

      Pros

      Meeting and speaking with many new people a day. Bell at the time I had worked there at least, had great promo’s that was attractive to most. Had a great time selling Bell Fibe products. Good opportunity for advancement if your sales volume and new applications are high

      Cons

      Pay fluctuations due to Fibe products pending or having issues on installation date Can be long hours if contracted out of town
