Any GP45'ers Out There?

The fact that the management miss leads people. Every single person that works in 45 hears that they are about to popped, they are the best employee ever, and they are a year away from 6 figures. It’s not true. Management is so focused on selling people on the opportunities that Enterprise offers that they tell everyone the same story. Once a group of people talk about what their AM, BM, or even RVP told them or don’t get the things they are promised they become disenfranchised.
The other problem is Management attempts to keep people working at a ridiculously low wage by telling them that there is no better opportunity out there. That is a lode of crap. Enterprise is a great opportunity for some people, there is no point in denying that. However some people value free time, a job that has a little prestige, or travel. What I mean is some people will value things that Enterprise simply can not give there for Enterprise is not the right job for them. Scare tactics don’t work for long. Telling employees that the people who left could not hack it or are going to fail miserably and come crawling back dose not help anyone. It just serves as an example of the region wide insecurity that is rampant in group 45 today.
The final problem is the pay. When someone is desperate for a job Enterprise looks like a life saver (we take almost anyone). After sometime however one discovers (or the job market picks up) that they are working for almost minimum wage. The promise of money is only couple of years off but it is not near enough to touch. The incentive programs offered by Enterprise are not enough make to make the MT position competitive. My suggestion would be to offer a bonus for making elite for sales, maybe not for the first month but for back to back months or something along those lines. I’m not talking about a massive bonus but something to make the job seem more competitive with the market. The way I see it the more people who make it to elite the better the company dose.
I love Enterprise but I’m not blind I know we have to change. I would welcome any serious responses to my complaints.

I think you have a great point on rewarding employees that make it to elite. Kind of like an ESQI bonus. Maybe an extra $100 or something would push employees and build moral. I might have stayed a little longer because I would have had an extra $1000 in my pocket. I know I earned 10 times that much in sell ups and CDW sales. Nowadays ERAC won't be out that much money since only a handfull make it to elite. Good point, Larry you listening?

I don't get it..You said that management misleads people then in the same breath you ask for suggestions. I have one, how about management not misleading their employees.

I'm so sorry......This website is kind of a joke. Lets be honest about that.

I want a new car. . .
a new set of golf clubs. . .
I want my boss's job.

Do yourself a favor if you are think about moving on...Do not do it...It will be the biggest mistake of your life. I can't tell you how many former Eracers have called me begging for their job back, but we just don't have room for quiters. Erac is far to strong for people like that. I have been an Area Manager for some time now and I can assure you that far and away Erac is the best company to work for. If you were at one time with us and no longer are that just means you were to weak of a person to handle it here at the big E.

HEY DIPSHIT... HAVE YOU BEEN AN "AREA MANAGER" (UNREGISTERED) OR A "REGIONAL MANAGER " (C.P RRM) FOR A LONG TIME NOW? YOU ARE AN IDIOT.... NICE TRY ASSHOLE

LOOK HERE... THE ASSHOLE CAN'T TELL WHO TO IMPERSONATE AN AREA MANAGER OR CHRIS POTTER.....

I've been informed that RRM C.P. is an imposter, so I've deleted both messages signed by RRM C.P.

Impersonation violates the Terms of Use for Failing Enterprise. Don't do it. Speak your mind and get your ideas across in another way.
