Pluspunten

The work is in English 45 minute lunch and 2 breaks, 9-5 not 8;30 to 5 it's remote

Minpunten

-Toxic culture, all fun and games and family til you realize that upper management is literally family (nepotism) -Low pay -Varying tasks in almost all positions -Sales is extremely high pressure sales to the point where it's borderline immoral to sell to the clients that they do but you do it cause you gotta hit quota or your bonuses are shafted -All departments that are not sales basically don't get recognized, and a promotion to a team lead gives you a dollar an hour increase which is laughable while upper management gets hundreds of thousands a year -Micromanagement -Blind eye to bad behavior of certain favorites -Management has no formal training -Literally work anywhere else

James, I am sorry that after so much time has passed, you still resent a company that gave you a second chance. When you asked to return to LinkNow, we were clear on our expectations from you. We would wipe the slate clean and start fresh. We were very pleased with your attendance, commitment, and work for the first few months. Once we noticed it slipping, we were all hands on deck to resolve the issues for you to succeed at LinkNow. A manager's job is to oversee staff, ensuring that the employees produce to their full potential during work hours. If it is noticed that any employee is not, we need to put things in place to monitor and rectify it. You did not take kindly to being monitored and requested to be able to self-monitor your work. I agreed to this and said should any issues arise, they would be documented to you in a weekly email. It is not unreasonable for an employer to expect staff to work when they are logged in and on the clock. Despite months of working together and accommodating your many requests, our core values didn't align, and we had to part ways. We are proud to say LinkNow is a family owned and run business. 10 of our 12 departments are managed by people with zero ties to the owners and have worked their way up from entry-level positions to where they are now. As you are aware, our starting pay is higher than the minimum wage, and our annual raise is well above. Our sales team is trained to educate our clients and prospects. We deliver excellent products and services at a fraction of the cost of any of our competitors and will always strive to make being online affordable to others. As we go above and beyond, if we don't know, we learn; if we know, we teach and always remain helpful and friendly. I hope that you move on and are successful in your future. Eve from The LinkNow Team

Pluspunten

- There are a lot of great people. - Bright, attractive office space. - They'll help support your professional development and let people change departments based on their interests. - They'll hire you if English is your only language.

Minpunten

- Call center focus. - Takes advantage of the relatively captive anglophone market with much lower salaries than average for Montreal—but this is a common problem in the city with companies that hire monolingual anglos. - Family-owned company, with all the drama and infighting that entails. - The office is out in the boonies at the very end of the orange line. Could be a pro if you're a West Islander who drives, but it's a bummer commute if you live in the city.

This man is an absolute GEM, I have had a ton of training in other sales jobs and no one is as thorough and on point when it comes to making sure his reps are not just educated but he makes sure you will be successful. He is patient ( which I needed LOL) and genuinely cares about the well being and success of his team. The company culture is beyond amazing, Max makes sure that we always have a fun and truly enjoy each day while we are there. He is always ready to help without any prejudice. I have never been so welcomed onto a team and instantly made to feel comfortable. If you are lucky enough to become a part of this company do not take it lightly, you are welcomed like family from day one.

Minpunten

I have yet to find one.
