Can someone tell me if Lextron/AHI is still biz as usual?

Specifically, is MM still around and is he still in charge of DVM? Does DVM still function as DVM/AHI?
If so, what are your thoughts about the company now? Is it better, worse, or about the same?

 

Seems like Lextron cleaned out a lot of the home office staff, and the field reps are miserable, so actually things are about the same. Everyone is waiting to jump ship, so the more things change, the more they stay the same...especially here. I don't know how they've done it, but they've managed to give AHI an even worse reputation than they had before the merger. Impressive!

 

Are any of the old reps left out in the field? No one seems to post here anymore, is there no news at all?

 

the news is the same... Yes, old reps still at AHII aka HELL, I can't tell you a single person that isn't looking for another job. AHII sucks out your soul and that is probably why no one has the strength left to post anything because they have to get up every morning and work for a company that screws you over any way possible.

Let's see what's knew:
We are losing Abaxis sales most likely because MWI will take the business even though they have a feeble attempt to "lock customers in" by giving them money. Upper management hasn't got a clue how to keep employees happy other than offer an incentive to recommend someone to work for the company for $ in your pocket. (I personally wouldn't wish this company on anyone!) FirstVet is now hounding customers yet again for generic items which if Ziller would have pulled his head out of his ass in the first place with Vetprofen, they wouldn't even be a contender. There is no communication, no customer service, no general sense of good business ethics. General sense is to collect a paycheck and not care what happens to customer, company, etc. Sad but true. Hummel will probably sell off companion animal because we have lost so much money and most of us welcome that.

 

how far down are sales from a year ago?

 

about $5 million for companion animal

 

ouch!

 

So, I heard that MM got canned by Lextron. Pity. Does anyone know what that giant turd is up to now?

 

Yeah, did any other company in the industry hire him?

 

MM now a vet consultant

 

Much worse!!!

 

Wow...hard to believe considering how bad it was 4-5 years ago. I hope all of you can find new jobs and the the F out of there! Do they still have ridiculous annual sales meetings in Dallas that are a monumental waste of time?

 

Schein will save the day!!
