Since access to face to face is nearly impossible. What do you do all day? Concerned AZ shareholders

We need to start by cutting the management fat. The managers do very little, and as far as I can tell the directors do absolutely nothing. Why does AZ pay these people big bucks to have our managers harangue us to fill out meaningless spreadsheets and roll out silly, recycled ideas they call “exciting new strategies”? Seriously, do we even kind of need these people?

Not sure why you are so concerned. We do the same as every other pharma company.....continue to deposit those checks and live life.

Just STFU and update your SDP! Those are the key to success. Just ask your CBD.

This is why the numbers absolutely suck nationally. I spend more time filling out and talking to my manager about spread sheets that half my week is taken up by it. Time to wake up Hartman and check the pulse of your sales team. Poor work environment will equal poor results.

You have the Pulse survey coming soon. Use it! I plan to.

Virtual calls are easy and my manager loves how many I do. Holds me up as an example for others about what can be accomplished. It's not even that hard. I use a VPN app on my phone and just have virtual calls between my iPad and phone. I make sure to use different IP addresses for each office so that it doesn't look like all my virtual calls are to the same location. The VPN is probably not necessary but it's just one extra step to cover my tracks. I'm able to cover so many slides in my presentation. Coast to coast baby!

I know this screws over the honest reps but I'm on track to be promoted and in line for a management position. Play the game and you'll be rewarded as well.

Enough already arooh manager! You can post drivel to your reps and they can pretend to swoon over you. However, the rest of us don’t need your phony crap!

I can't believe that they were bragging about all of the progress the CVMD team has made in omni channel and virtual interactions. Is management that out of touch? The only reason this has increased is because management is forcing it down our throats. I've had more docs opt out of veeva emails than ever before. I have less than fifty percent of my top docs that will still take a email. My manager is checking our calls and then what emails have been sent to those providers for follow up and how quickly did you do it. I keep hearing that we need to be strategic with these emails. The only thing strategic that's happening is I've lost the ability to email my top docs because they have all opted out. Sending these providers four emails a month has left a bad taste in their mouth. If I don't do it, I get put on the naughty list by my DSM and CBD. I love Pharma.

Don’t conform to this ridiculous metric. Be your own person and do what is right for your business. If they don’t like it then tough! It should be in writing somewhere. This expectation has only been verbal! They can’t make you lie or fire you for not sending an email to a doctor. This is absurd!
