bad middle management, you are truly just a number here, paranoid management only concern is "perception" and putting on a good show for boss (example: middle managers telling salespeople to walk briskly down the halls), extreme micro-management, TINY cubes, unreasonable sales quotas, very bad comp plan, nobody making any money except for the lucky few who sell to Banks and Credit Unions and to Wealth Management - if you aren't in one of these verticals (and you won't be) this is truly a dead-end, don't pay for cell phone but want you connected 24/7, bad benefit package, don't match 401k, have managed to drain all the fun out of the workplace.
