Strongest division

Looking at the company.and thinking of applying.

Is it a hidden gem or a revolving door? Truth please

Revolving door. Me too product.

4 Dm's left

Hired a new sales director who is cleaning house. Most territories aren't producing. Product comes off patent 6 months before the next gem hits market...

Everyone is looking. Anyone who tells you otherwise must be in management

The question remains. Will there be an exit. Another layoff due to the gap. Foolish USL to dump us then seek hires to retrain.

Revolving door unless you are connected.

Everyone else is just a commodity to be used.

Why would they resign? Cushiest gig in the company. They are the only ones with absolutely no accountability.

True. Then they shove new targets down our throats w/o giving us the time or data to clean up the lists. Then threaten to only pay targets-the ones they shoved down our throats. Data is crap but nothing we can do about it. What a slap in the face after that meeting.

I think you are on the wrong board. You must have been referring to another company.

You know things are really bad here when sales reps would rather work at a contract company then Upsher.

Contracts roll from one contract to the next.....in today's market that's good.

Contract work is not good. No job security, few f any benefits, no sense of loyalty from anyone, and you are often treated like a nobody/outsider. If you are stuck in a contract agency they take a percentage of your pay. If you get laid off (and you will) there will be no severance package. This may be fine for someone who is not the prime wage earner of the family, doesn't have to carry health insurance, or just wants to shop around. For most people it just sucks.

The point is... Clearly there are employees here that feel the risk of contract work is better than working for Upsher

How is the new leadership team doing? Chris T took over the helm well over a year ago... Sales numbers? Turnover? Morale?

they changed the IC for Q1 and ended up paying some bottom performers more and some top performers less than they would have made under the old Q1 plan ... and those bottom performers ARE STILL COMPLAINING

The point is... Clearly there are some employees who have not been contractors, been out of work recently, or know what the job market is really like. But go ahead and quit your jobs, there are plenty of low-paid contractors waiting in line for something better.
