Corporate strategy to hit EBITA & sale the company; Deny field sales force the $40 for home internet expense; Limit product samples; No meals; No overnight travel; Double & triple the size of CCC territories by whacking more reps; Leak bullshit stories about how hot we are and companies are clamoring to buy us for $10 BILLION, (Reuters), (global sales are $1.7B and Net Sales last 2 years are NEGATIVE $350M); Hire new reps but don't train them; Create spreadsheets & conduct multiple useless conference calls weekly that serve no benefit; Close ZERO new contracts of any national value (worthless pieces of shit called Corp Accts & Channel Management), ; Change Comp Plan mid-year to DE-motivate sales force, AND, make it so those who can't make more money sandbag remainder of year (Valentine is a complete moron); Have ZERO new product pipeline, (kiss my ass on Ag+, it will only replace millions in Ag sales you mental midgets); Solutions???!!! do I need to comment on an algorithm created in 1996 and asking customers to STANDARDIZE 100% is like asking Valentine to learn how to speak!!! I probably forgot a few points here but that is why I left the company. Total sad joke of an organization and some RSM's & other "management" types who tow the company line.....Go fuck yourselves nobody gives a shit.
PERFECT SUMMARY Your should have been given MVs job...Best wishes at your new job. A job as a janitor in Hell would be an improvement.
If American Corps aren't someday held accountable for this type of greed and destructive behavior our proud Country will suffer slow death, these greed merchants should all be offered a prison cell with a roommate named Bubba...
If I don't have internet at home because we can no longer expense it, then guess I can't do Orion. Even exchange !
Can we all agree to boycott Orion? Just like you said, if we don't have home internet, how can they expect us to enter calls? Quid pro quo.
Orion? Our RSM was reviewing the stats on the % of entries for our region, and put it this way, there are no consequences for not making your entries. Do you think they would fire you for that? Apparently not, as the compliance from our region was horrible, I would say an F. Makes me wonder why I wasted my time on it as no one else did. I felt that with all the contract write downs, that was one thing I could control. Waste of time. I am done with it as the star of our region probably entered less than 12 calls all year, which was probably 6 more than prior year. No kidding!.
No $40 internet????? REALLY????? You a holes get No Orion. Fu k you! Im leaving in a couple of weeks anyway
Hey RSM and AVP I can t afford WIFI, and my manager wants me in the field from 8-4PM (Gor doon) sorry I can t afford WIFI so no Orion OK?
I love, love, love this directive and what appears to be the general response that most TMs are not going to comply with ORION. I say "yes"!! They are not, and I repeat, NOT going to fire us for not completing this useless report. They do not want anyone else to leave and will not fire anyone for this small infraction. After all, most TMs are apparently not doing it anyway. To fire someone AND possibly pay a severance (that may also be gone soon) and have to replace yet another TM while trying to look good, make sales and increase profits. Not happening. It is time WE call some shots. Why even work? Nothing is going to happen if you decide to stay home 3 days a week (or more).
...I agree 100%...and now that they want reps in CCC to stop using outside sources for in-services the reps can spend ALL their free time educating...for free of course - days/nights...don't forget to sell AV (even though they don't pay you on it)...I bet the Canadian reps get their internet paid for...they do get tablets...and new laptops...
So they eliminate most of the CCC sales force and double up territories then tell you no Nurse Consultants, brilliant! If you are a CCC TM and you aren't doing everything in your power to exit stage left you are in serious denial.
LOL, too damn funny watching ConvaDump spiraling outta control under Berger-dipshit and his right hand puppet Valenputz....company is choking on its debt load and cutting expenses(see firing reps) to save itself....too late though as reps continue to leave in droves and sales stagnate from the recall of Flexi-Crap and constant rep turnover. Archaic CVT product line is such old news compared with competitors who continue to introduce new products and actually pay their reps commission.....CVT has evolved into the laughing stock of the industry....a place where careers go to die....get out fast before they announce company cars have been cancelled in favor of the new ride-share program.
ANYBODY who is still left and isn't doing everything in their power to exit stage left is in serious denial. $40 for WIFI R E A L L Y???????? Next will be a printed invitation to leave? Let them sell foam on the moon---an as yet untapped market with a lot of upside.
I HEAR A SUPPLY OF YUGOS FROM CROATIA, SLOVENIA, AND BOSNIA ARE ON THEIR WAY AS YOUR NEW FLEET VEHICLES...WHY ARE ANY OF YOU STILL WORKING FOR THESE DEMONS?
