Worst job I’ve had - werkgeversreview Sales Executive bij LHH

I made the mistake of ignoring the overwhelmingly negative reviews when I joined this company, something I deeply regret. The organization is profoundly disorganized, with little to no support from management or internal teams. Sales cycles are excessively long, averaging 6–8 months, and you’re expected to churn out an absurd number of cold calls daily with minimal tools or strategy in place. Management is inept at best and negligent at worst. In one case, I personally secured a deal only to have it fall apart because leadership lost the contract, a contract the client had already revised and returned. After repeated follow-ups, I was finally told that it had simply been misplaced, costing me the sale entirely. Unfortunately, that’s just one example of many. This kind of operational incompetence is the norm, not the exception. Communication is poor, processes are unclear, and nobody seems to have a handle on what’s actually going on. The only marginal upside was the remote setup, which they are now walking back in favor of a hybrid model, something that was never disclosed during the hiring process.
