Massachusetts: I was hired on April 27th as an outside sales manager and was told by the CEO prior to leaving my last job that the company was financially strong. I spent the first 3-4 weeks in training, learning the industry and getting to a point where I was ready to develop business. Long story short, I found out on July 22nd that they were going to let me go on July 31st. I even asked the CEO prior to joining the company if 3 months was a realistic time period for someone to learn the business and develop enough business to start hitting quotas - she said absolutely. Come to find out that only 2 of 7 sales managers (all with 8+ years industry experience) were meeting their numbers. I am not being offered a severance package and was wondering if this is something worth persuing? My quoting numbers were good, I volunteered as often as i could to help out where ever needed, I did everything I could to put myself in a situation where I wouldnt get let go - and they're letting me go... I feel completely mistreated and mislead and everyone at the company is telling me that I never even got a fair chance to succeed. Thanks for your help...
