BBS Circus

[Anonymous]

I have been in this industry for many years and can honestly say that this division may be the most incompetent poorly run in the business. It almost seems that when TM's finally get some momentum with customers the corporate brain trusts find a way to mess it up. QC is nonexistent and the ability to present/implement a focused business plan is something they only read about in Arizona. The management team consists of G.L. clones with no experience that think that the key to leadership is being the loudest in the room. Please, Please if there is a CR Bard god step in and put this dog down. The waves of turnover will only continue until someone looks in the mirror and realizes major changes must be made.

I thought after JK left BBS was on the up and up?

Problems are much deeper than JK. Products suck and quality is pathetic. The new managers are loser rejects from other divisions and have no clue how to excel in this space. This division is losing ground every day. We are the joke of Bard.

How can BBS resolve these issues? The whole world knows about Finesse and its' long history. Yes, the new managers are loser rejects but how can Bard get rid of them?

 

[Anonymous]

The use of S.P.I.N. was never designed to address defective products and back orders. Addressing these two issues is critical. Combine this with a non ADD business plan and this division could do GREAT things. The weekly shifts in selling strategies and product focus is demotivating and unproductive.

Should have a bunch of fresh faces by NSM

Steve Williamson ran Cytyc into the ground, he is the perfect candidate to run biopsy into the dirt. With our current pricing strategy, we are going to tank this arena. There won't be any more jobs left because we have commoditized the business

 

[Anonymous]

Is Steve Williamson the same guy that promised to fix our production issues at the NSM? How's that working out? Thanks again for your commitment to excellence!

Well at least he put together a stellar comp plan.

Why did Bard sell Contura to Hologic?

 

[Anonymous]

Getting better yet? Rumor is there is some momemtum here. TMs set to make some serious H2 bonu$.

Yup fly out to Vegas to tell everyone that the Division has been sold. Sounds feasible

Launching a new marker that glows in the dark, plays music, treats cancer, and never migrates. Unfortunately you still cant see it under ultra sound.

BBS already has 100 tissue markers...how many more do you need?

 

[Anonymous]

We are sold to Devicor/Mammotome.

Could that even work...a merger of poop products.

Received a call from a recruiter about an opportunity with biopsy in New York...can anyone shed some light on this market and products?
