Free lunches, overall fellow employees are cool but not management

Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback. We take feedback like this very seriously. Our Sales Academy is an intensive 12 week program with a mix of in-class and on the job training. The first phase in the classroom is all about learning different technologies, Softchoice's offerings and go-to-market strategies. We focus on how to add value to our customer's experience. In the second phase of onboarding, our sales reps have the opportunity to apply their learning through real customer interactions and on-the-job experience. This year, the Sales Academy was recognized by the Institute for Sales Excellence for being a phenomenal onboarding program and for the impact it has on our sales organizations. You can see our press release here: https://www.softchoice.com/about/press/2017/249 and a list of IES winners from all categories here: https://i4esbd.com/awards/. Lastly, we recognize that the Softchoice is not for everyone. If at any point during Sales Academy, a student doesn't feel connected with the path they're on, we encourage them to have candid conversations with their manager and development coach. Ultimately, we actively encourage sales reps to own the outcome of their learning experience. In fact, graduates of our Sales Academy see success faster and earlier than sales peers who haven't enjoyed the Sales Academy experience.

Remote work Recently acquired by WWT

Minpunten

What they tell you the role is definitely is NOT what it is. How they deceive you into taking this role is unethical. They promise you inbound and warm leads and claim to be the preferred AWS Partner but AWS doesn't want to deal with us at all because we don't have the technical staff qualified to support their customers. When we acquire AWS customers they wind up having a bad experience and Softchoice has a really bad reputation internally at AWS. They target ex AWS employees because they are already certified & they already have contacts. Meanwhile all the managers are not even certified, which means they don't know the content and can't talk with AWS Leaders effectively. There's favoritism so some people are forced to call nonstop and send emails but the people with sales don't do that. To cover it up, they just started having those people make calls but several months of records tell a different story. Management is extremely inexperienced and underpaid so they have side businessss and podcasts.
