What Do You Like About Grifols?

Quote


















I like workin for Grifolds because of the nice peeples that I work on. They are very kind and helpful and wear pretty clothes. Sometimes their choice of matching colors and frabric is bad but at lest they are clean. I also like working for a Spanish company, especially since Nadal beat Federer.

The products I sale are not the best but i gets paid lots of monies and drive a new car. I am happy but my manager...she kinda drives me crazy with her constant humming.

Addios muchacha y muchachos.
 


















What i like about Grifols is the ample supply of marketing materials that we get on a timely basis and goals that are unrealistic and impossible to get unless there is divine intervention.
 












me have anice territoty overlooking the Missisiispppis river . I mak my bounus every quarter and they send preety flowers cause ima girl. My main manager is a preety girl too by why does she dress like a man.
 












Top 10 List:

1. Friday 4pm Teleconferences
2. The day I drop my Manager off at the airport.
3. Typing up reports with information that can easily be seen in Salesforce.
4. Worrying about getting receipts to prove where I was for the day - this many times seems like the most important thing of the day - how ridiculous is that.
5. Working multiple conventions throughout the year, committing to supporting local chapter events and summer camps - all on weekend time.
6. Going to Regional/National meetings and having every moment of my 24 hours planned out - would be nice to develop some corporate comoraderie at these meetings (during our "free time") rather than having every second planned out.
7. 38% increase - I don't think I need to go further with this one.
8. The ability to submit ideas to marketing/corporate that are utilized - oh never mind that would never happen.
9. Having manager take credit for ideas.
10. This is my only serious comment - what I like about Grifols is the other members of my region - the support/friendship is very important to me.
 






I like the ride-a-longs(emphasis on LONG) with my regional and the way he criticizes everything about me, even the cleanliness of my car (which by the way, I bring to the car wash the night before his visits). But what I like most of all, is the way he pretends he actually was a successful rep at some point in his career, even though we all know he sucked at that too.
 












Oh I've got one! The constant pressure to learn every aspect of clinical articles that are really not pertinent to our products or business and that will never actually be used in front of a customer.
 






Expanding on the top 10 list....

Riding with my manager for 2 days listening to the same stories from the last ride along and then getting a field evaluation report that took him 23 seconds to fill out - which of course always has to have 1 "improvement" area - an area that has been the same for over a year - and never improving beyond a "meets" category.

Quarterly goals that are always the same and reflect what our jobs are anyway.
 






Being required to gather competitive intelligence so frequently that most of what is submitted is redundant, recycled or just purely fabricated. Why? Just to appease a mngt team that obviously doesn't APPRECIATE OR TRUST their reps.
 












This thread has been viewed over 350 times, and relatively few positives about Grifols have been posted. The silence speaks volumes.

I enjoy being part of an experienced, mature, and effective sales force. I also enjoy not being a part of the insanity that is Big Pharma. Lastly, the administrative load, at least in my region, is very reasonable.
