SD don't expect Loyalty or motivation

What type of leader sends out a message to his sales team and tells them he doesn't expect their loyalty or motivation.....one that plans on laying off the entire field force. Psych's day's are numbered.
 








Hey, it's a business get over it. If you want to run your business like a motivational, democratic kumbaya family, then go start your own. watch it fail.

It's about a sales number.

SD
 




Business with top talent that cares about what they do everyday and have a sense of loyalty will always outperform companies that have employees that don't give sshhit about their company and are just collecting a paycheck. It's to bad Pfizer. Has become the later
 








it may be about sales numbers, and if so, why do we continue to get scorecards that are many months old ! it's a joke. They should just make up the numbers and send them on time. It's the same either way.

It was an SD that sent the voicemail? On what planet do you think an SD is deciding whether or not to layoff a sales force?

Be very clear on something you moron. No one you know is making any of these decisions. Not your DM, your RM/SD or Amy Jenner. None of them. Someone will tell them the decisions a few days before they tell you.

Have you ever heard the expression "THE WRITING'S ON THE WALL !!!!!"
Come on......you really don't understand that they want you to quit now, so they don't have to pay severance.
You really can't see this ?????????
 








SDs expect two things:

1. Someone (HQ marketing, Analytics, DBMs, McKinsey) to produce output that they can then sell to someone above them as their own work

2. Their large paychecks to be deposited on the 15th and 30th, so they can continue living a lifestyle they haven't earned

Time to return the favor: post the voicemail, emails, or any other ridiculous SD comments like this on YouTube, or right here!!
 








Can't imagine how the SD's felt in 09 when the big layoff occurred and THEY were named SD. Must have been on cloud nine. Pretty callous stuff from the SD poster above, saying it's all about the numbers. Typical Pfizer. Callous. Unfeeling. But it's not all about the numbers at Pfizer. I knew a couple of guys who won EVERYTHING and were still let go. I also knew a couple of Vista gals who were retained--and who continue to work part time. Ha. Fly low friends, make no waves.
 




On the contrary, I think the SDs demand loyalty and motivation times ten. They want every drop of blood, sweat and tears they can squeeze out of you. They want you selling with your dying breath. They want you giving 110%, right up until the very second you get the phone call, you know, the one where they kick you to the curb.
 




Pfizer knows nothing of leadership. If you were to rank companies based on leadership Pfizer is on no one's radar. Remarkably, if you were to ask any VP or SD or whatever at Pfizer they would be the first to tell you, "Oh, yea, I am a leader." The real question that I doubt any of them could answer is, "Why would anyone want to follow you or be led by you?" Nobody with a developed neocortex would want to follow anyone at Pfizer.

The great leaders left long ago. These people who are still around are here because they were too weak to make a move on their own. Too weak to make life better. And certainly too weak to help others make their lives better. These people are all about themselves, not about making the lives of others better.
 




Spot on post about the great leaders leaving long ago. I can't think of one person right now, several of them in New York, who don't spend their days covering their backsides and posturing. Positioning themselves in the best possible light for the next big cut. That's what consumes Pfizerites today, posturing, preening.
