Sexism isn’t the only problem. Women in my area outnumber men, so the sexist crap is uncommon. But I've overheard quite a few homophobic slurs dropped from time to time. If I were gay, this would not be a place I’d want to stay long.

These roid head alpha males are constantly disparaging gays and it’s sickening.

Disparaging LGBTQ, women, and minorities go hand in hand in organizations that allow incompetent white males to get positions they don’t deserve. Any well-informed individual knows this and has for years. This post was made by some BS con-artist pretending to be outraged.

Agreed. Thought the same thing.

So true! The jerks who harass the women are always the same ones making gay and trans “jokes” and putting down black/brown/Asian people

It’s really tough to hear these stories, for a long time I thought I was the only one. When I came back after maternity leave following my second child my manager encouraged me during my review to consider not having any more children if I was thinking about moving into sales. He said it might be too hard for me to juggle the evening demands associated with the job like customers dinners. He is gone and my new manager is much more enlightened, but that will always stick with me. Biotronik is still a boys club with all the backward thinking that comes along with that. Get the experience you need and move on to a more female friendly company and never look back.

Thanks libtards. Setting fire to your own house then blaming someone else is what you morons do best. No company is perfect, but you people can’t resist tearing down anyone and anything that doesn’t square with your flavor of the day politics. Don't like our company? GET OUT!

Preach! Hard enough to do the work and fill the open positions in my region without these spineless snowflakes whining about their jobs on CP.

If someone doesn’t agree with your politics should they GET OUT of the country?! I hope they identify you due to the hate speech clause

It’s laughable you’d think that any potential biotronk recruit would give a flying f what’s said about the company on CP. If they want to know the true nature of the company before they interview, they just have to browse the Linkedin profiles of those interviewing them or the senior leadership team to realize this place is a refuge for the straight white male. Its 2021 and only 2 of 15 RSDs are female. Seriously? If the company cared at all about diversity, they’d publicly post and recruit for key leadership positions as opposed to allowing RW and his cronies to quietly pack the ranks with their bro’s.
 






I’ve worked at BIO for 16 years. Looking back, I’ve experienced several cringy incidents dating back to the days when most of the reps in my area were independent. As a single mom, I pushed through it because I had to. They job paid well and it still does for my area. Thankfully, my team now is really respectful and supportive, but it is distressing to hear that sexism and harassment is still happening in parts of the company. I would encourage anyone dealing with this to not do what I did. Don’t put up with it. Find allies. If HR is not giving you more than lip service, file a complaint with your state labor relations office or the EEOC. And don’t be scared by your employment contract and the arbitration language. Depending on your state that might not be enforceable anyway. BIO has never liked the publicity that comes from lawsuits, so there’s a good chance they’ll settle quickly if you feel you’ve been harmed.

You can go back to the QAnon/Stop the Steal/Tea Party Patriot/Border Militia boards now friend.

Biotronik settles lawsuits because they can’t afford to litigate.
 






We do have a few women in leadership roles here in house like Amy and Katarina, but they are definitely in the minority and they will be the first to admit that. I was recently was promoted for the first time and offered a 3% raise only because I complained that they were not filling the open positions in my group even after things started to come back after COVID and I was not willing to take on all the extra work anymore. My “raise” is the same as the cost of living increase we should have received last year, so essentially no raise at all and I am still doing the work of 2 people. This is a common story across many in house departments and why I think you’ve been seeing so many people leave the company in the past year. From what I’ve seen it takes women working in house 50% longer to be promoted and the pay increases offered are not the same as what I hear some of my male colleagues have been offered. I think it someone filed a complaint and they looked into this it would be very clear that women are not being treated equally at this company.

Hasn’t BIO already had several multimillion $ payouts over the past few years? I think most of those were related to improper sales techniques, but didn’t that rep in Florida allege harassment in addition to the stuff about taking doctor’s families on Disney cruises?
