<p>[QUOTE="Rivkah, post: 4067383"]I worked for this company for several years. In that period of time there were at least 5 reorgs. Executives were hired, and would be introduced to the rest of the company and then they would just fade away, never to be seen or heard from again. No explanation. There were I believe 3 medical directors in 2 years. One had barely signed on and resigned within about 45 days. Then another signed on, was introduced and then disappeared in less than about 6 months. Now there is another one on board. In the past 3 months there have been a number of executives and managers resign.</p><p><br /></p><p>The business practices of this company are questionable. When problems are pointed out about sales practices that "smell" unethical, the report is "investigated" and brushed asside, with the person making the report getting into hot water. This happens ALL THE TIME. There have been reports from patients that RS Medical sales people have presented themselves to the patient in the doctors office wearing scrubs, as if THEY are part of the office medical team. There is a field sales person who has submitted paperwork for product that was dispensed more than ONE YEAR PRIOR to the paperwork, and PRESCRIPTION being turned in to the home office. THIS IS NOT LEGAL. Sales people have been known to tell patients that "this will not cost you a dime" in order to make the sale. Then the patient gets a bill and calls in to the corporate office upset. There have been instances where the patients insurance was never billed by RS Medical. The timely filing period has passed, so the insurance will not pay. So RS Medical bills the patient. How is that even ethical? The patient has no control over the speed at which RS Medical bills, or if they do it within the timely filing period. </p><p><br /></p><p>Then there is the way they treat their employees. There is supposed to be an "open door" and "open communication" policy, but when you try communicate with managers or executives you often do not get responses to emails for days and sometimes not at all. I personally remember emailing one manager I had, on no less than half a dozen occasions, and NEVER received a reply to any of them. This was not an uncommon occurrance. They also have a sick policy that requires you to "pre-arrange" your illnesses. If you pre-arrange your illnesses 24 hours in advance, being ill will not be counted against you. If you do not pre-arrange your illness, you will still be responsible for the productivity for the day(s) you missed that were not arranged in advance. How do you pre-arrange being sick? Further, in general they treat you as if you are a child, they work very hard to castrate employees ability to make decisions. There are large flat screen televisions in the breakrooms, and on the wall in several areas touting the company products and pictures of some events that are from sales conventions, and the like. And casting the message that RS Medical is a GREAT PLACE TO WORK. A FUN PLACE TO WORK. Truth is, it is an AWFUL place to work, they work you like a dog, do not give raises, do not give bonuses, give you out dated computers to work on that repeatedly crash, and the office supply cabinets are EMPTY, because the company is not making money. But the EXECUTIVES and SALES STAFF have gone on cruises two years in a row. </p><p><br /></p><p>And on Thursday September 1st they laid off over TWENTY employees from the corporate office.
