Are you brain dead? I worked for Olympus for 10 years, and its awful. Capital is decent in Urology, but we need a new digital ureteroscope. Disposable are a joke and we aren't growing in that area. Dual source contracts keep us out of this arena. Management is a fucking joke. Quotas are an even bigger joke. Look elsewhere bro. You will be very sorry. Have you not seen the 70 openings in the sales force
entry level sales ! Last poster is spot on. Wolf is kicking Oly behind ! Micro I repeat MICRO managers. This is a place that you do not want to work, unless you have no self respect !
Especially in the Midwest. The managers are constantly trying to ply CYA and their regions are always half empty with a slew of resignations. Pay checks are a disgrace!!!
Energy has the highest turnover . Reps are being called into HR and asking why . Hey Sean the writing was on the wall you just didn't want to hear it or listen to those of us that were telling you . You have no clue what is going on in the field . You pushed out your best people already . The cling ons are left . Maybe you should have kept MARTY around . Too bad you felt threatened by him,he was not your follow the herd guy ! Hey how is CTE going for you . Maybe you will break out the bag. LISTEN !!!!
Massive Reorganization in MSG OCA. This will be happening right after Labor Day. It just gets uglier and uglier for Olympus.
Another 25 sales rep resignations coming this week to Center Valley, and nothing will be done about it. Average rep tenure is going down to 1 year from 10 years at Olympus. Theres no reason to stay at Olympus. Joke!
You need reps in field to win battles, and your can not win wars with no field representation. Go set up all the town meetings you want, but, no reps, no contracts, no business. Can't bring in newbies to establish relationships with Supply Chain overnight. I can't wait to see a new B2B Olympus Rep try discuss capital, disposables and contracts at a supply chain meeting............ That will be all, and we will be in touch with you....thank you for setting this meeting up & waisting our time.........
This rumor keeps spreading around. The last couple layoffs were also just "rumors" but there were definitive layoffs. I bet Olympus had not had layoffs in the 30 years prior to 2011, and since then there have been at least 3. Poor management has lead to all of this. Guess more will get pink slips soon. Management should hand them out, in person. So now, the reps still left are looking for better jobs / careers rather than deal with this huge pile of horse dung they call Olympus. Good job Japanese and OCA management; way to ruin a once "great" place to work. Life is too short to work for people who could give a fuck about you and/or your family. Time to leave boys & girls!!
Have you people seen who we have as RVP's and AVP's in the company? Nothing more than arrogant and insecure jackals, who are just as greedy and short sighted as the top management in the company. One big nepotism chain in this fucking organization. I will be resigning after 9 years next Monday, from the URO/GYN organization. This place truly represents a college campus with all of the brain drain to go along with it. We have lost over 75% of our tenured rep knowledge in the past two years. This will blow up in managments face like a rogue grenade! When will there be management firings? This is all on them! FIRE NILS FIRE CHAD FIRE SOD FIRE BARRETT FIRE PETER FIRE TODD USEN FIRE RANDY CLARK FIRE NACHO ABIA FIRE CHRIS KUHN FIRE PIERRE LA CROIX They are all complicit!!!!!
Seriously folks. There is something majorly wrong with Olympus. I have never witnessed a sales organization that loathes its sales reps more than at Olympus. Its like management thinks the sales reps are enemy number one or something. Its really fucking odd. The Gyrus/ACMI acquisition, never should have been permitted by law. As soon as that took place, everything went way down hill. We were getting paid 14% on electrodes, now reps are lucky if they are getting 6% or 7% commission on electrodes. Whats really upsetting is that with all of the comp cuts, that management keeps their bloated salaries and commissions. FUCK YOU NILS!
Dear Japan, Wake the fuck up Hiro!!! You have sat on your ass for way too long. You sat back and allowed these total pieces of shit run OCA. Did you ever think that maybe there is a big fucking problem over here in the states? You fucking pussy! You need to terminate a shitload of top brass!!! Get off your ass Hiro!!
Massive reorganization happening just after Labor Day. Going to thin out the sales ranks and try to save $. Either way you are fucked if you are a TM.
