Todd- you are the last hope for this company. You have less than a year before there will be a mass exodus.
Olympus has great urology reps, working 50+hrs a week, 2million+ territories, with no associate rep or stone rep and We are tired - doing a lot more dirk for less pay. While ENT and Energy have associates reps, work less and sell less about 500,000.
We like the job but hate how the company treats us. We have heard for years "if you are not sales, you are sales support" which is total BS.
WHY DONT YOU ASK REPS WHAT THE ISSUES ARE? Why not have an advisor board of reps? You can't continue asking the VP or AVPs because they don't know. At the least, send out a survey monkey with questions. Look at areas/territories with low volume or declining volume, you will find new reps. It takes 2+ years to learn urology and we are allowing good people to leave. Time to clean house- Olympus management is arrogant and only care about their pension.
List these five names because you are full of sh!t5 more resignations on Friday!
Keep it coming boys! We are right on pace to bankrupt this place by the end of the year.
Do not apply for jobs or interview with Olympus.
You have been warned!
40 openings in 6 divisions out of 1,000 reps. Many of the 40 were terminated and on a plan.I do not think they need to name names. All you need to do is look at the job postings in the last 30 days. I have not seen this many sales positions open at Olympus, even post-riff in GI back in 2011. It is very clear people are fed up with current management and finance (who seem to be the dirty culprit in the commissions slashing). If management wants to bolster profits through operating cuts (AKA sales comp reduction), they will achieve the exact opposite. You need good people who can drive sales through product knowledge and relationship building. Good people do not stay at places they feel are screwing them out of less-than-market pay.
