Pluspunten

Used to be the best company to work for but there arent any Pros anymore

Minpunten

They took away all the great employee perks like the annual block party, Holiday party, and the cool contests, prizes, and swag. Pay cuts for no valid reason. Micro-managing EVERYTHING! Ascentis is the worst thing ever created. It feels like we are being punished to go to work. Even if you shattered your quota every month they still nit pick stupid little things and dont give you credit when credit is due. Since Chris Friedland left it's been an absolute downward spiral. It doesnt feel like upper management cares about its employees. It feels like no one takes responsibility for their actions, they just push the blame to someone else. If you go to someone telling them that their multi-billion dollars business's website needs to be fixed they say "Oh sorry thats not up to me that someone elses thing" and then when you go to that person they make some excuse as to why they havent fixed it yet when in reality its because they are lazy and the way the company is structured they dont care about making the website better and more user friendly they just care about hitting their quotas. The whole company is in a very bad way and company morale is at the lowest I have ever seen it. Everyone knows that management has screwed everything up and that all the employees hate working here, but none of them care. They only care about their paychecks.

Pluspunten

The most transparent and supportive company I've ever worked for. Generous with bonuses and raises. Management will support your growth within the company and paint you a path to get where you want to go

Minpunten

There isn't a single con that I experienced except for how I was let go. Recent raises, praises, never took a day off and even corporate recognition only a few weeks before my firing.

Pluspunten

My manager is excellent. She promote work life balance and the inclusiveness of the team. She understands that life happens and something’s are beyond our control. She encourages honest opinions and frustrations to be shared so she can do what she can to help with that. The pay is decent but does not equal the amount of work on a daily between excessive emails and 40 plus calls a day. Working remote is a plus as a single mother with very little help it allows me to get my kids on and off the bus and take them to appointments as needed. There is a lot of internal support in the form of share point.

Minpunten

Now to the bad. There seems to be very little upward mobility for long time employees. There are a lot of recent changes occurring with the merging of Ferguson and not all of it is good. The showroom employees are not on the same page as we are on how certain returns work and that causes a lot of confusion and discord with the customers which those of us on the phones have to deal with. There is plenty of lateral movement but that would require having to go to a whole new manager and start over learning their way of doing things. The same expectations are not across the board in all departments as far as responding in a timely manor to direct messages or even responding at all. CE is the low man on the totem pole and made to feel that way with the daily operations and not given the same respect as others in the company. The shift bid process is arcane and should be based off of seniority not KPI. All of the calls do not require “qualifying”. We have to deal with a lot of rude entitled customers when telling them no to something just to pass them over to OOTP and they get their way anyway 9 out of 10 times. And most importantly they changed over the phone system and Genesys is awful. Multiple dropped calls daily and zero visibility for our daily adherence to make sure we are on track to stay within our 85% required schedule. I am very good at my job I used to enjoy being able to fix the complex issues I come in contact with daily and now it follows me to bed worrying what’s coming next.
