Need advice

I am thinking of interviewing with the Surgical division. What's the comp like? What's the culture and management like? Seems like low turnover...is that true?

Depends on territory obviously. I'd stay away unless you are desperate.

Why is that poster an idiot? The post may lack info but it's a shit job unless you get one of the few good territories. You really think surgical is a good career move? And not to mention Olympus still has some dirt to clean up.

The surgical division just laid off the VP of the division. I would be careful, would not be shocked if Gyrus takes over the entire bag and the surgical reps get the boot.

None of these responses are helpful. Does anyone have anything real to add?

Not helpful? You just got the rundown on the post about the VP moving on and the dirt to clean up. Ignore the LESS posts they are sarcasm. Google Olympus Woodford and let me know what you think. You take the surgical job and I give you a 50/50 chance of being there in a year (and not by your choice).

Rumor has it that they have mobilized all of the Surgical Sales force into Scottsdale to do a massive layoff.

Wanted to put them through one more compliance training session just to twist the dagger before they cut off their heads...

Not true, they would never touch surgical, they are the clinical sales force and they are starting to really embrace LESS, single site surgery, The VP just retired not fired. He was with the company for many years and was getting older. Take the job my friend and make some$$$

LOL so why is it that we probably wont get ASC to renew contract for us to sell.
Loosing the WAVE xp business , downward spiral

You want some good advice? Stay the fu*k away from this company.

It's GI, bronchoscopy, urology and possibly ENT products are all quality products, and legitimate leaders in the field, but the company is run by fools, has a skeleton crew of support for us in the field, and a comp plan that is more of a scam than anything I've ever seen.

Good luck, I hope you make the right choice.

Probably not all the time, but right. Don't think because you're going to az that you are immune to layoffs, cuts etc. These companies don't think like that. They will can you whether it makes sense or not.
