Pros

ADP is definitely a place where you go and become a top notch sales professional. You will learn great techniques on cultivating business, networking, and closing business.

Cons

The company is moving more and more towards a heavily micro managed environment. You are not only responsible for your numbers but you are additionally responsible for finding business for other segments. This is a very high pressure environment and for people who are willing to work 65 + hours per week and still make less than 6 digits then... this is for you. There are other companies out there where you can put in this effort, don't feel the boot on your throat all the time, and can make a ton more money.

Worked in relatively new department...

Pros

Since this was a fairly new department, it consisted of mostly young professionals so the ages were very close together. Very well educated people professionally and academically who helped build a brand new department through hard work and ideas. Able to develop procedures and policies that were implemented department wide. There was excitement because the future seemed limitless. Nothing like seeing something you helped work on be used by other. Benefits were top notch as well as sick/vacation days. Pay was also above average I would say. Lot of deadlines and multi-tasking but that's what made the work interesting.

Cons

The executive management motives were apparently not to grow the business, but to trim as much expenses as possible. All numbers and no sense. They stopped promotions and hiring and eventually opened "sister" sites in TX and India to help with work that we were already completing on time. No respect, the day after the last trainer from India returned, we were notified that we were being phased out. So three month training for the folks in India was good for the business but not the 3-5 years that the people in CA had put in.

Pros

Flexible hours, Great coworkers. Those are really the only positive comments I can make about my experience at The Right Thing.

Cons

In my interview I was told I'd be hired in as part time but would become full time within two-three months. Twelve months later, still no promotion, and it wasn't for lack of doing a good job. When I met with HR to check in after 3 months, after 6 months, 8 and when I finally quit, they fully denied ever telling me I would ever be given a full time position. Employees are overworked and underpaid, in the fullest sense of the word. The company isn't even that big and after a full year of working for the company, senior leadership still hadn't even spoken to me or acknowledged me when passing the halls. I truly felt like they no longer cared about their employees. Hours were taken away from me at the last minute, and I was not compensated for time I was scheduled. BIG BROTHER WAS WATCHING. The company regularly monitored employee's computer screens and key fob scans at the doors, I was pulled into a meeting with HR because I had AIM running on my computer (instead of the company-approved MSN chat), and another time because I left the building during my shift to get something out of my car (they monitored the key fob swipes and asked why I left during the middle of the shift). I felt like I wasn't trusted for doing a good job, I wasn't rewarded for doing a good job, and I was forced to lie to clients about who I was and what company I represented ( I was working as a recruiter on behalf of another corporation). By far the worst place I ever worked.
