Humanscale

Experienced management and fun culture made this job one that I looked forward each day when driving into the office.  Typical day was 3 - 4 appointments ranging from introducing myself & company to a new client(s) to conducting a power point training session for a group of resellers.  Management was encouraging through much positive reinforcement which keep energy levels high and brought a cohesive team dynamic to the office.  

Many challenges presented themselves, but what most stuck out was that Humanscale is a mid size company competing with market giants.  The relationships with my customers proved to be high effective when competition set in.  In addition the ability to separate my product offering from the reset.  

The most enjoyable part of this job was working with the clients directly and helping them address there needs or solve a problem.

A typical day at work would be comming into a full inbox of emails, voicemails, as well as a stack of orders to get placed or tickets to put in, and the phone already ringing off the hook. Some of the emails were usually regarding the ever changing day to day procedures. I enjoyed working at this company because of the mostly friendly atmosphere, as well as the challenging and fast paced work load. The negatives on this company is that it was extremely unorganized and management seemed not to have any prior experience on how to run many aspects of the company. I had seen fellow employees on multiple occasions, buckle under the pressure and quit. On top of the chaotic work issues, there was constant gossip among supervisors as well as general employees. Besides the looks of the office and the quality of the products, I would say this company was ran very unprofessionally.

Working here at Humanscale is truly an amazing experience. I got to meet people from different diversity. What I really love about working in Humanscale is that it gives me a flexible opportunity to expand my horizon from other departments as well. The people around here are really helpful and really care about each other. Although language was a barrier, people never hesitated to help you out in every aspect. Everyone is treated equally and given equal priority to work with. It was an amazing experience working with fellow interns and its quite motivational for us to work with senior professions who keenly look up to interns to get a fresh perspective of the process. 
With these 3 months of experience as a Quality/Supplier quality intern, I gained a lot of experience and I will be looking forward to opening opportunities for spring 2020 to be able to utilize my skills and leadership experience in an industrial sector

Humanscale's cover looks better than the actual pages of their book. The lack of automated processes and procedures makes this a hard place to feel any type of work accomplishment from. There's always issue after issue, and lack of training within the company leaves people with no direction for a standard resolution. The only enjoyable part of the job is getting to know different people and establishing relationships with the other employees. The workload is tremendous with not enough people to handle it so you constantly feel like your drowning. Humanscale would be a great place to work if they invested in more employees, setup of an internal training program, and development of standard processes and controls with the utilization of better technology and operational system.

I was recruited to Humanscale Healthcare after spending 6 years at my previous company. During the recruiting process, Ammy Mann, explained to me that Humanscale was a place where I could work my butt off, crush my numbers, and work my way up into a management position. (It was clear that they needed help in that area)

After 9 months and 170% quota attainment my position was eliminated. They used me as a tool and asked me to leverage my connections to develop pipeline and they cut me. 

If you are a successful sales person being recruited to work here do not go and work for this company. There are corroborating reviews on indeed and also Glassdoor. Do your research and don’t make the same mistake that I did.

Humanscale's best asset is its employees.  Honestly the smartest, vibrant, creative, just all around nice and willing to help group I've ever met.  

I work in the marketing department and quickly became great friends with EVERYONE on my team.  I have built a very healthy work and out of work relationship with everyone. 

The craving for ingenuity and beautiful design is inspiring.  Working at our HQ office in NYC aids in that culture as we have our design lab right down stairs.  The mix of corporate and creative is a breath of fresh air.  Watching both work together so fluidly makes for a great and balanced work place. 

Using the furniture is also a perk!

There have been a lot of structural changes since I worked at the company, but the team I worked with was great and so was the company culture. One of the biggest problems I had was my manager who was not a pleasant person overall. This isn't an ideal place to work for if you are interested in learning a lot and working your way up in the company. This is better for a person who wants to learn skill sets they need to and then moving on to another company or for someone who doesn't mind working at a company where after a while, the work can be a bit redundant. On a brighter note, the work space is very beautiful, there's a business casual dress code and there are some free healthy snack options offered for those who prefer that.

A typical day at work means in my eyes a busy day. I learned a lot within my 1st 3 years with the company in this role, however, I didn't learn much new within last two years. 
There are a various types of managers with various education, skills, attitude and experience within the company, therefore it wouldn't be appropriate to rate them as a group. It's certainly strongly seen within the company that co-workers are main asset for the company. The hardest part of the job was to deal with various strongly changing humours of coming in and out people. 
Most enjoyable part of the job was dealing with various cultures around the Globe, getting involved and be responsible for not just one or two things, but a long list of various things / jobs in a same time.

My time at Humanscale, provided me with great business to business sales experience. During my time there, analytics and time were combined to maximize sales time and help opportunities go from leads to close sale.

Training was second to none as quarterly training's existed on both product and sales. With such a short list of products to sale Humanscale, were great at competitive sales training and product knowledge.

With no dedicated dealerships, the demand for new leads and ever changing sales strategy makes sales tough for Humanscale ADR's. It makes competition from within the organization a "dog eat dog" type of environment. So competition from within the sales organization makes teamwork and team building hard.
