Sales culture





Interview.....What's the company like?

Do your research on a US executive that feared for his life, when he blew the whistle on the big wigs in Asia.

It was not that long ago. That, along with all their history of fraud, was enough for me to move on.

Find a smaller company, that values it sales people. you are not going to find a good culture with 90 percent of larger companies. you are just a number. trust me. I have worked for both sides, and the smaller companies are much, much, much better because there is more stability, less fraud, and you can act like a normal human being.
 








Becoming more and more micromanaging from the top.
Compliance driven directives that are over the top even for the Medical industry.
A comp plan built to screw you from every angle.
Not enough inventory to ship product on time, and that costs you commissions because of said comp plan.

All that said, great products and strong brand loyalty. More importantly, huge obstacles for competitors.

The Regional Manager you have would dictate how much a pain in the ass any of these things are.

Good luck.

"Great products and strong brand loyalty". I literally laughed out loud when I read that.
 












You know what I love?
Pretending I like my manager, when....

A). I'm way more intelligent than he/she.
B). I know way more about the market & the selling environment than he/she.
C). He/she keeps reciting corporate mantras like a tuba in concerto.
D). He/she could care less about my career here.

You know what? Eat a dick Mr/Mrs RVP!
 




















Plan to suck all the money I can out of this place, but once it gets too unbearable, I'm getting the fuck out.

Its incredible how much things have changed over the past 10 years or so...
 
















Did you ever realize how fucking stupid your RVP is?
Omg, mine is like a dumb blonde. They pay this fucktard $250k to babysit adults that know and do more with sales than he ever could.
Can someone please tell me why such fucking idiots are managing our business here at Olympus?
