Well... I am no one mentioned above and I checked out over a year ago. I very rarely check the posts here, since life is so much better outside of this warped world, however... my curiosity is piqued to see if Novartis has improved morale, management and culture. Unfortunately, nothing has changed and the same rotten culture exists. I was not a disgruntled employee, I did very well and left before "they got to me"... which is what happens here-matter of fact!
I can sincerely say I truly despise the treatment of your reps (I am embarrassed to say I worked for Genoptix). I saw what occurred after only 3 months of employment... bad mouthing an ex-employee, and belittling seasoned reps. Seasoned reps know better and will always leave when they see what occurs... young-bloods think the $$ is great and don't have a balance in their life yet, but a word of wisdom: after 1 great year- you are doomed!
Micro-management, intimidation, threats, lack of support and lack of 2-say conversations to improve the company, along with busy-work, insulting and rude FAR are not great managements skills to keep reps.
History repeats itself.... how many past President's Club recipients are still here?....NONE! What does that tell you?
I write this with sincere peacefulness since I (along with every rep that left) NEVER regretted leaving and want reps to know there is a much better career and life outside of this company and you will never look back with regret for leaving.
