Disorganized, misleading, and exploitative management

A typical day: Unpaid admin work and inconsistent training. Tasks often changed based on what management had just figured out or implemented. Although we were told we'd begin making sales calls at the start of the week, delays dragged on because the calling software wasn’t ready.

What I learned: How to spot red flags in remote roles and prioritize my time wisely.

Management: There are several managers, but they rarely communicate. Instructions frequently conflict, and you're expected to understand systems and tasks that were never clearly explained. Asking questions often led to frustration on their part.

Culture: Tense, confusing, and unprofessional. While they claimed to welcome questions and concerns, it became clear they didn’t have the answers themselves — and expected us to figure things out for them.

Hardest part: There was no contract or clear payment system. I was told to set up a Wise account for commission payments, which cost me in transfer fees — so I ended up losing money overall.

Final straw: After I raised concerns about the ongoing delay in paid work, I received multiple pressure-filled emails and calls from management. I had clearly signed off for the day when the calling software was suddenly ready. Less than 24 hours later, I was removed from their system entirely without warning.
