Q2 started off with over a dozen reps quitting, several without new jobs because this place is worse than a bad case of syphillius.
New candidates: you think Galderma is a fun place to work as you will sell filler and toxin and it seems cool. Listen up- you won’t make any money here. The culture is the worst.
When you get the call from a recruiter or whatever poor soul is trying to get you to ruin your life ask a few direct questions:
1). Why did a dozen reps quit within a 2 week period.
2) find out who had the territory you are interviewing for and call the previous rep and get their thoughts on the company.
3) remember- you are interviewing Galderma as much as they are you. You have more to lose. Galderma is losing everything.
4) ask to see the commission payout for the past 2 years of the rep or territory you are replacing. When they refuse to show you ask why. They should be proud of the money you make. Listen- Galderma will ask what you made in your previous role so don’t be afraid
5) ask to interview with the VP of sales KH and ask what her specific plan is to turn the culture around. Then ask why did everyone quit when she took over.
6) Galderma is proud to say they are the destination company. Have your director explain what they mean by that.
7) ask to see the results and the action plan of the big meeting Galderma had with the top sales reps to see what they can do to stop people from quitting. Then ask, why is everyone quitting in the first place.
8) ask on a scale of 1 to 10 what they think of their CEO. Then ask why would someone work for a CEO that rates as a negative 10. Maybe ask about some positive things about the CEO. Then ask why can’t you think of a positive thing.
9) Ask why most all the top talent presidents club winners have quit.
10) ask why you should work here vs Taco Bell?
11) ask if you sell $2 million dollars in a quarter but come in at 84% to goals what your payout would be. Then ask what your payout would be selling 3 tacos at Taco Bell. Then ask why you would make more money selling 3 tacos than $2 million in filler.
