High Performers that get Axed

[Anonymous]

Okay so here is the Novo Million Dollar Question. Anyone know of any representatives who have had high performance as in high market share and it went flat that have been fired. With all the negative plublicity things are not looking good. I work in the midwest and have performed year in and year out but in the last year I have been flat. Now I am getting pressure from my manager who is getting pressure from his manager to increase business or the writing is on the wall. I always knew this company was great to work for when you are performing but to be on this end of the spectrum and not really have much control over the situation with all the lawyers ads and all is a new perspective. I don't hate the company but want to know if anyone is aware of this situation. Not sure I can do anything to change the current trend and that is not my fault but my manager is basically saying it is. Granted she is a micromanaging unrealisti bitch but hey she drinks so much corporate Kool-Aid that she sweats it. Damn I hate the smell strawberry Kool-Aid.
So there it is, any insight, truly I think if we get enough people together this is grounds for a class action law-suit against one of Forbes Top 100 employers. (Man is that a joke!)

Sounds like one of Mandy Schnelten's reps. Beware, she will PIP you out in a heartbeat.

OK, so management says it is your fault and lets you go because you didnt make the numbers.

Do they really think that anyone they might replace you with will fare any better?

What law says that's gonna happen?

Remember most of the managers and their bosses could never make it in the field either.

There are some manager who know the ropes and could cut it just fine. But most of them have gotten fired because they won't buy into the BS streaming down for Marketing and HQ.
