Windward software complaints

Second, the terrible management and bullying that goes on in this place is astounding. Run away now!!!!! Next, you'd check your emails in Microsoft Office and open up the company's database and view the unique call list you created for yourself, based off the company's generated prospect list for the industry that was currently being campaigned.

Lunches were generally taken around noon and lasted an hour. It was a set work schedule: Mon - Fri am - pm. I learned some basics of the relationships between business vendors, manufacturers, wholesalers, etc. Management was okay for the most part; the odd glitch here and there like any company, but from my point of view, there were times where the quality of the company generated call lists could have been improved for a better cold call to appointment ratio. Having said that, all in all I was granted very appropriate employee treatment.

Workplace culture was very friendly, respectful and safe. One of the best work environments I've had the chance to work in. The comfort from it was almost like a second home to me. Best Parts: - Work at your own pace - Very friendly, knowledgeable, and likeable staff helps motivate and stay happy - Efforts are compensated accordingly Hardest Parts: - Strenuous - more Yes There are 1 helpful reviews 1 No There are 2 unhelpful reviews 2.

Let me save you some time and say this. If you are a smart person with ideas who has a positive attitude and a healthy soul, then remove Windward Software from your search entirely because this place is NOT for you! A toxic and negative environment that poison's your very soul and makes you dread going to work.

It's like working in a playground full of kids with no teachers and the school bullies are the management team. If you are a thinking person this place is not for you! Got a good idea on how to resolve an issue, approach a problem or help to try and create a positive change? Keep it to yourself because unless it falls within the small brackets of understanding that the "Managers" agree with then you are setting yourself up as a target in the next round of annual layoffs.

Employee retention and happiness are a completely unknown concept to this company which is why if you watch for opening positions in Penticton for a good period of time you will always see WINDWARDS name pop up.

Yes There are 1 helpful reviews 1 No. Report Share. Started off with a wage enough to survive with tough negotiating. I was told they flat-out don't give cost of living adjustments, and got nothing. I left a few months after that, taking my 7-years of overly-loyal experience with me.

Risk not getting hired by asking for a cost-of-living-allowance in contract. You can say you would accept never getting a raise if you stay in the same job, as long as you don't lose to inflation. If they don't hire you, move on to a company that you can afford to stay loyal to. They have new owners since I left. One old coworker said of the new owners, "it's great we have a real focus now moving the company in the right direction".

One said regimented lunch breaks of minutes even if he needed more time without regard to whether he would work early or late to make-up. Pros Close to beach in summer, shower, limited rec facilities, massage chair donated by Flaman Fitness , could park bicycle inside. Cons Like it or leave, No cost-of-living increase.

Yes No. One of their 7 core values is: the customer is not always right. That raised red flags for me on day one. The business location was awesome. Nice people to work with. Unreliable and uneducated.
