Mixed -some great district managers, but very foolish decisions made by corporate.

Specialty sales professional

Business Outlook

Pros

Good products. Good benefits. Decent opportunity for recognition and incentive compensation. Very talented field sales representatives. Decent marketing budget. Clear communication of what management's expectations.

Cons

Too many sales meetings. Compensation plan that seemed arbitrarily constructed. It was difficult to make quota because it kept moving upward as time passed - for old products that were improperly launched. RIDICULOUS marketing materials and leave-behinds...straight to the dumpster.

Senior district manager

Business Outlook

Pros

The benefits package was strong, especially time off. The products were also good and local management was pretty strong. They had a pretty good reputation with doctors.

Cons

Senior management didn't seem to have their act together -- there were major changes every 6 months. HR was not professional, they showed favoritism and would not keep things confidential. Marketing couldn't seem to get it right.

Business Outlook

Pros

There was very clear performance feedback regularly and you always knew where you stood. The company really tried to get each group to know each other and it was effective, many of my former co-workers and I are still in touch. The benefits package was generous, good health insurance, 401K match and vacation time.

Cons

There was no communication of company or group changes, I would hear of changes from outside my department before my management ever told me. There was not much work-life balance, no work at home even on snow days. There was a big disparity in work distribution. Those who could perform were given the work that the under-performers weren't doing.
