Sales - Anonymous employee Enverus Employee Review

Job: I spent 2 years at Drillinginfo. During that time, there were 3 re-structures which resulted in 3 lay-offs along with more responsibility added to every individual in the sales department. No growth opportunities but added work and quota. It is true what others have mentioned, the sales manager prefers to hire Tech grads externally. Just looked on linkedin. Compensation: Beneath industry standards. Sales operations would also take 2 1/2 months to process commission after each quarter. The bigger frustration, however, is that they would change comp plans each quarter and sales people would receive comp plans 6-8 weeks into the quarter. This consistently happened every quarter and became a running joke. This is not the norm for a company that has been around this long. Management: There were a few good managers at Drillinginfo amongst a sea of terrible, incompetent ones. Bad hiring practices followed up by letting these people go. There were 6-7 3 month hire/fire turnarounds during my time at the company. Some of that was due to bad hires but also management not setting these people up for success from the beginning. Conclusion: If you are married to oil and gas as some people are here then I would say maybe it is worth it, however, if you are more focused in tech, I would recommend looking elsewhere. This is Austin, Texas. There are many better, run companies to work for and better paying ones.
