Tech Data Employee Reviews for Senior Account Manager

"While Tech Data is viewed as a very well managed company,the way they terated their employees left much to be desired. Bonus payments were often late, and frequently less than what was promised or earned. The corporate culture was great between co-workers, but a disconnect between upper management existed with the sales force."

What do you like about working at Tech Data?

"the aspect I enjoyed most at Tech Data was the freedom to prospect and open new accounts when I had the time to do so. I was able to grow my client base in a short period of time, which in turn led to a excellent referral base."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"I would discourage anyone I knew from working with Tech Data. This may sound harsh, but I feel strongly about the fact that quite often my hands were tied when it came to closing more business and increasing my client base."

What don't you like about working at Tech Data?

"As previously stated, the disconnect between upper management and the sales force was distinct and in most cases obvious. My feelings are that the overall sales revenue for Tech Data would increase tenfold if everyone could be on the same page."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"I feel if upper mangement spent more time examing what the sales team was experiencing with their given accounts on a regular basis, the disconnect would be eliminated. Management can not expect to stay abreast of what is occuring within the sales cycle by only meeting once a month for a few minutes."
