Minpunten
Local office leadership does not believe Sales Professionals should exist so therefore will treat you poorly and try to push you out. If you interview ask how much turnover in the last 5-10 years in the role, it’s horrible- Ask about their revenue generating growth in the last 5-10 years. Local office leaders think they understand sales, but have no clue what they are doing - hence no growth. Also, there is so much crap talking behind everyone’s back and no one is brave enough to discuss issues in person, everything it done through email. During your interview they will talk about how they are big into “family” but that is all a lie as well - tons of fluff, it’s a joke. Don’t expect your ideas to be heard either, they will toss them out of the window thinking they have great ideas, that in fact are pointless. If you are interviewing for the Sales Professional role - DO NOT DO IT, you will not be at Mercer long term and regret it. Grass isn’t greener…..
