Toxic leadership and poor conditions make work difficult - Avis employé Account Executive WebHealth Network

Leadership created a toxic and unprofessional work environment. Employees were frequently yelled at and sworn at, and this behavior was normalized rather than addressed. The tone set by senior leadership made the workplace stressful, uncomfortable, and at times hostile. Commission payments were a major issue. Despite bringing in millions of dollars in sales during my time there, I received less than $12,000 in total commission. Commissions were not paid in a consistent or transparent way, which made it difficult to trust the compensation structure and extremely frustrating given the level of effort required to close business. Work-life balance was poor. Employees were expected to be in early and stay late, and leaving at a reasonable time was often met with judgment. Long days were the norm, and there was clear pressure to work beyond standard hours, including weekends. There was also an expectation to be in the office regardless of health. Sick days were discouraged, and it was common for senior leadership to come into the office visibly ill, which led to others getting sick while still feeling pressure to show up. The company offered two weeks of vacation on paper, but employees were required to take that time at the end of the year, removing any real flexibility. Remote work was not allowed. Office conditions were below basic standards. There was no proper kitchen space, and employees were expected to bring their own basic items like coffee mugs. Benefits were inconsistent and, in my case, never provided. Travel reimbursement was unreliable. Expenses could take up to six weeks to be repaid, and reimbursements were sometimes calculated using exchange rates that did not match the original charges. Overall, this was one of the most difficult and poorly managed work environments I have experienced.
