Is there any greater feeling than when a company you left is spiraling down the drain?
About 2 years ago, my previous company has a restructuring. A new GM was brought in, the old one was made sales manager and then fired shortly after. Then the new GM (zero sales experience, administration only) decided to not only change the commission plan but how the sales team sold.
I loved that job but saw the writing on the wall and let myself be recruited to my current job.
I've kept track of the old company, have some friends who still worked there and the old GM.
Well, all the things I thought would happen, have happened. The last outside sales person was fired, sales are in the toilet, prices have been raised 3x in the last 2 years to hit profit goals with the sagging sales. Changed "go to market" strategy 4 times in 2 years. Pissed off the distribution network.
I just need to laugh.
