Great things ahead for Atherotech

Just heard we have 15 new tests we will soon offer! Finally car allowances will be offered to reps things are looking up! We have more things in store just be patient.

 

oh Clint keep telling yourself that and trying to sell it to the ever disgruntled sales force

 

LOL, we could offer a menu like the bigs and still fail. You don't understand the business at all, so spend some time in the field. This is so funny since CBC are logistically a challenge. And, you think interfacing will be ready...With all the failure we currently experience you think a car allowance is a concern. Just tells me your a manager that doesn't really care whats going on and rather kiss ass to keep the RD cushion which clearly you don't have any reason in the position.

 

No way Behrman Capital keeps funding these durn fool idgits. And if the people in the home office were any dumber they would need drool buckets. Working a convention and watching physicians walk away shaking their heads wondering why in the hell we are there when they know that there is no way they can send to us is comical. I am riding this out till the inevitable bankruptcy (it's happened before) and it will be interesting to see what bunch of clowns takes over next. It would sure help if they actually understood the lab business.

 

Bankruptcy here we come! Our shares are going to be worthless! Gotta love Atherotech!

 

I know right!!!!!! Trainers and home office "leaders" have never sold in the lab space! LOL!!!!!!

 

Jim to management team: Guy's we must go out in the field and work with as many reps as possible and let's show them how to do this job. If we get no business on the days we are out and we won't just tell the reps they must complete the monthly training modules from there business will be no trouble. It's simply all about the messages we deliever. The clients need nothing more from us then good messages you know just like Pharma does it.

 

Jim has to go! He has taken the company to new lows.

 

The company is making dumb mistakes. Should be no balance billing...period. This way we can be a huge company

 

Good grief the OP is stuck on stupid. Wow.

 

So your terminating regional labs from your services and going direct to physicians! What a joke, with no plans this strategy will fail, especially when the first patient receives an EOB. I dont know any office who would be willing to separate and FedEx - Timber!!!

How long until LC is termed or LC terms Athero?

 

Very soon. LC is ramping up with NMR and will be phasing out Vap. When Q did this there was about 10 million of revenue gone from the bottom line and when LC does it the lights go off! Did you guys even book tickets to your regional meetings yet?

 

I never seen such stupid people from home office and regional managers. Yeah let's send our labs to Birmingham Alambama.

 

Where did IT guy go that was over client interfaces?

 

Laid off. The next group to be let go will be territories less than 50k a month in business! All Jamie and Clint said was smoke and mirrors! This place is bleeding $$$

 

This is why the backwoods leader from Bham were let go and now JM needs to go back in the hole he crawled out from. We are focused on sales instead of what keeps labs afloat. IT and Managed Care. This is why we are bleeding out on new and retention. You cant have success in the South. All of the successful medical companies originate and have leaders from the NE.

 

You are a complete moron, Yankee Doodle. These small minded, sweeping generalizations you and your like-minded buddies are making in these posts reflect your Neanderthal self centeredness. Please find a new job and leave this company as soon as possible. Oh I forgot, you have been looking but nobody will hire you - which is why you are so bitter.

 

The reps that work here left good paying jobs are stunned and baffled at the direction we continue to head. Our confidence has long gone. You should understand we stay as long as we can to help our resume and take time to find the right job for most of us we desire a career. Right now if you poll the reps we are living on our salary and scared to bring on new business for fear of losing another relationship in our respective areas. Our reputations are the reason Atherotech hired us and our reputation is being ruined by representing Atherotech with all the problems we insert to our relationships. Only a rep that has earned the respect of their customers can truly understand this post. That's why home office and a lot of the RDs will never understand. We are all looking and on our own time we will surely leave.

 

Very well said! Many reps feel as you do so let's blame the Managers. Jim of course saw this revenue dive coming and will blow smoke at the board. He will say a 25% drop in revenue is really a good thing and will help Ebida. Our board will one day wake up and say we could have kept MM and had growth or follow Jim and decline.

 

Heard it's a 40% drop in business from May into July. This place will lose easily 60-70 million this year alone. I smell bankruptcy!!! Run Run Run
