So the entire sales force was just notified they have 48 hours to start paying for their company cell phone personally! What an id--tic move. Today their cell phone is the single most important tool they use as an outside sales person. Resideo has decided that they don’t want to pay for them. Talk about kicking your entire sales force on the balls. If they do t get the phone switched in 48 hours, the numbers will be turned off. So no customers will be able to reach them! And oh, so nice that Resideo just did a move of all our outlook email, contacts and calendars to a new app and managed in the process to delete everyone’s contact lists too, so as an example my 15 years of building contacts is gone AND my customers can’t call me because Resideo is turning off the phone number they all have. Smart. Completely disconnect your entire sales force from your entries customer base. That ought to help sales! What a dumb l, dumb set of actions by Resideo. I thought Nefkin was going to be good for the new company. Not looking so good now. I wonder if chairman of the board Roger Fradin knows what is happening to the company?
If this is how Resideo is going to operate, it might be time for employees to seek unionization where ever possible. I wonder if there is a union that would be interested in Resideo. Any ideas?
