Really home office person? How should we have grown and by what group? Last year the company had record sales trajectories on all key products and less profit. Why ? Silly over priced Marketing programs and Head count. These are branded derm products - people we need two people tops on each of the three major brands. Over staffed Finance and Com ops departments. Silly and poor Managed Care contracting. Silly over priced and over staffed Medical, Training departments. Really people - phase IV trials for branded generics, MSLS to explain Basic Science a 4th grader can read from the package insert - really? Over staffed departments and people in the home office offering very little value and terrible work ethics. A good example is the HR department and the lack of integrity from the current and former HR staff. Those people should be ashamed of themselves. However, many of those people remain while they lay off the sales group that delivered and brought many of these products to record sales levels yet push out more and more sales people last year trumped up accusations, this year BS about tenure and performance. . Also, Leader in Dermatology? really maybe for a short term in topical Retinoids. Maybe for the short term in systemic Rosacea but lets face it we are talking about low Dose Doxycycline. But our over priced Marketing programs and initiatives are second to none. If you do get the call tomorrow remember you have until December 31st to scramble for health care benefits for your family. Maybe the goofy European guys can come back this summer to re- introduce the Galderma Code of Ethics to the US team again and hopefully this time they will put some thought into how best introduce some Ethical treatment of their long term and once loyal employee base. I guess they missed that portion of the feel good code of Ethics.The reality is these people have no class, no code and no ethics. I am glad the loyal sales managers that built territories and Galderma's business over the past 20 years are now considered "FAT that needs to be trimmed". You ought to be ashamed of yourself you pompous Jack Ass.
But thanks home office person for the lecture on how good things will happen for a once leader in Dermatology. These people make me want to vomit. The Kool aid punch bowl is now empty. But I am sure you will be sending out the home office Christmas party invite out to the remaining employees. Will Kristine be back to raffle off the Hotel points and airline points earned from the sales teams this year? We may as well keep to the new Galderma Culture to have more Pompous Jack asses lecture us at company gatherings. Seems to be the new emerging trend at the company.
