Takeaways from the Orlando One Team meeting?

Sad but true.

 

There are calls faked.
We are basically required to fake calls with the constant pressure to conform to impossible and unrealistic call metrics.
Good sales take a lot more hustle than the metrics game and only gain you a modest increase in IC payout, while absolutely no one even notices.
For those two reasons, I have faked more calls at Novartis than I ever have in my career and have pretty much lost my motivation to sell. If they want good metrics out of me, that’s what they’ll get.

 

Yeah, that was pretty bad. Also, you thank the event planners by giving them useless flowers! That was all show… What are they supposed to do, take the flowers on the plane home with them? At least give them a nice gift card or something… I hope they got more than flowers.

 

I did not Novartis, my sugar daddy took care of me at the NSM.

 

First time attending a NSM and I totally enjoyed the experience. Great hotel and food. Thanks Novartis!!

 

You had a shot until you threw "great food" in.

 

3 nights away from home and family with little or no new content learned. Long lines for food to get a bite sized morsel if food to ho and wait in another line for 20 min to get another bite of food. Long sessions that sometimes went 10 hours.Gone for 4 days and can’t expense a drink. Where was Dez? Never saw him waiting in long lines for food? Not one thank you to the sales Force for their efforts in two years.One thing i know is to get to a too 5 company you have to treat your people well. That’s not happening here. So many people looking to leave.

 

Aww poor lil bitch. You are damn lucky to even be there. You’ll soon find out that the company you bitch about is the only the only place that will employ a useless lil bitch like you.

 

Not one thank you to the sales force while bragging about “their” record sales profits.

 

That's not entirely true. While they counted their $3B, they sent a marketing intern out to buy you a new $25.00 backpack What more thanks could you possibly want?

 

A fair point. I’d say the marketing intern has never seen a pharma rep based on the backpack.

 

What do you get when you fall in love?
A guy with a pin to burst your bubble
That's what you get for all your trouble
I'll never fall in love again
I'll never fall in love again
What do you get when you kiss a guy?
You get enough germs to catch pneumonia
After you do, he'll never phone you
I'll never fall in love again
I'll never fall in love again
Don't tell me what it's all about
'Cause I've been there and I'm glad I'm out
Out of those chains, those chains that bind you
That is why I'm here to remind you
What do you get when you fall in love?
You only get lies and pain and sorrow
So for at least until tomorrow
I'll never fall in love again
I'll never fall in love again

 

A small pup gnawed a hole in the sock.

 

‘Play Misty for me sweetie pie.

 

Newbie here and I found the NSM to be exciting and enriching. As for the criticism, it is all coming from burn outs.

 

What was your previous job, selling used cars? Either way, if you really believe this, you have a bright future in the marketing department.

 

Exactly! Give it a year. You will cringe thinking about the comment you posted. Doesn’t matter what division you are part of

 

Whoever stays here either sucks or wants to sit on their ass and collect an easy pay check or both.

 

April fools!
