So accurate! A ton of misleading at onset for people who are looking to work and or get into devices. Any recruiter who calls me about this job gets no further consideration down the road. Stay away!
I for one completely agree with you. I'm sick and tired of my peers complaining about in-house staff, reimbursement and quotas. I go out and do my job every day and I'm making a great living. It sounds to me like many on this board are not working and living above their means. That's a bad combination.This is the American Way. Please stop your complaining and go sell some LV. Early bird gets the worm sweetie

I had always heard neutral or negative things about Zoll and its flagship LifeVest. I was contacted in early Fall about an opportunity. At first everything was great…a very easy going day and manager. i even ignored my counterparts within the district as they were extremely negative but honest. My revenue quota was low ($20k) and my fit quota was low as well with existing business in the territory. In training I was told that my revenue quota would only go up $1600 per month….I was making 11-13 grand per month….Lets fast forward 4 months….My revenue quota has doubled and my fit quota has increased 50%…The last two months alone, my quota was raised nearly $8k. Revenue and Fit: These are the two ways you get paid in addition to your salary. I have never seen a commission plan like this…furthermore, there are many moving parts to your commission. You can do your job and sell a vest, but the patients insurance policy can easily deny authorization for it after the fact…DME NOT DEVICE.nothing like seeing a big fat zero on your sales report. There are so many moving parts to this process…unlike pharma and device…..I don’t want to make this a long winded passage but I just wanted to share my feedback about this company and its antics out of all courtesy…There are individuals who thrive here and it is merely circumstantial and highly volatile. In addition to the monthly raises in revenue quota and periodic increases in fit quota…there is an annual increase to make it even more DIFFICULT. I was told by my manager that the monthly increase of $3,200 was a “compounded” raise and it was actually $1,600. Funny enough, there was a month i missed quota by 1,300…no compound taken into consideration. I have been at least the second sales rep in a year and my customers ONLY respect me for not bothering them. If you are taking this job to get physician call point experience, great! If you think this is a path to devices, please stop and know its not devices. There are several device companies that hire direct from pharma. Please do your due diligence before accepting an offer. How many reps before you? Book of business, quota, insurance reimbursement, etc. This company obviously operates on statistics as they know you will be gone within a year. What is sad is that with each abrupt turnover, credibility is lost and doctors can’t take you seriously. My humble suggestion is to stay away unless you are unemployed. Its been great, Zoll….Im out of here back to the OR.
Crazy how long ago this was posted and that all of it is still true. Worse, the vacancies have tripled, the turnover rate is up, and percentage of reps and managers making goal is even lower. Coming here was such a mistake.
NopeHas this dynamic changed for the better or no?
Thanks Jon go recruit more jobsIf anyone has any questions regarding the real culture of ZOLL, go on linked in and connect with Jonathan Bubar. He can expose the truth, specifically to Northeast Mike D region.
Thanks Jon go recruit more jobs
He should get a part of the zoll contract like one of the other former RMs who fled MDs area so he too can capitalize on the constant turnover poor leadership causes
