      A company that lost its way - Account Executive SHI International Employee Review

      Pros

      The company had a good business model - low overhead, low prices, sell lots of IT commodities. Enterprise field sales reps traded a base salary for autonomy. It was our business to manage and grow and without a base salary, there also wasn’t much micro managing.

      Cons

      After having the same commission structure for decades, they decided to make a change and impose a tax on all account execs. You now owed the company 1% of all sales. The CEO is a billionaire, the chairman of the board is a billionaire, yet they decided that account execs (who they didn’t even pay a base salary!) we’re making too much money and they, the billionaires weren’t making enough. They made some management changes that resulted in some of the most arrogant, yet incompetent “leadership” I’ve ever seen. They began treating their employees like trash This company may not fully sink, but it is taking on water. Avoid and thank me later.

      Pros

      This may be a good place to start in order to gain experience in the industry at the entry level. Beyond that it should be a stepping stone.

      Cons

      The Glassdoor numbers say a lot. Only 50% of the people who work here would recommend to a friend or colleague. In school, 70% is 1% away from failure. SHI is 20% below failure. To add, 53% of the people who work here have a negative outlook on the company's future. That seems like a trend in the wrong direction. If your career is an investment in your life, that needs to be considered before investing a career into SHI.
