Pros

- through sellbytel i was placed in a tier 1 vendor program within a team of around 10-15 associates and gathered some great experience although as an indirect employee - the role itself was tough but again a great learning curve and experience - met some fantastic people within the program

Cons

- utterly useless local line managers who alienated our tier 1 vendor client - over bearing micro managers or managers who were completely anonymous and provided no value - grossly underpaid us compared to our market value - inadequate IT equipment (phones and laptops several generations old) people were using laptops with cracked screens for months - zero career progression, all employees who progressed to a role within this tier 1 client did so through their own networking skills - no training for new staff on product or salesforce - experienced staff were required to take up the slack through their own initiative - sellbytel themselves on their glassdoor summary say that 'our outsourcing solutions reduce costs' however staff costs were triple handled in ANZ - how can this be true? - extreme penny pinching. the effort to claim a cup of coffee for a client visit wasn't not worth the time to do it - KPIs were unrealistic - and on the flip side their own reporting was completely inaccurate - commissions were paid extremely late - occasionally 30 days from end of quarter. on average 90 days

Pros

I had the ability to regularly communicate with the North American VP, so it was easy to communicate with him the things that I wanted and needed in order to stay content. Management is always very approachable. Some of my colleagues were very unhappy but I believe that you need to be vocal from the start about your goals and they will be clear on how much they can help you achieve them. Mgmt does try and create a good work environment and create a real team atmosphere for its employees.

Cons

Workplace politics can sometimes get in the way. Many of the positions that they offer can become dull after a few months, so it can sometimes be hard to stay motivated. They need to get better about offering growth opportunities to quality employees. In my time here, I saw a lot of very talented people come and go because they did not feel valued.
