J&J was OK, .... abbott sucked a big meaty one...always tons of red tape. I have 10 years in the biz as a rep. A sales job is only as good as your DM. I've had one great one, and three crazies who couldn't sell their way out of a paper bag, and the only thing they could do is admin, since they had the people skills of a monkey... I'm in the process of making a career change... I just don't think it's fair that a poor DM can make their rep's lives hell prior to management reading the region rep's one-a-year manager feedback reports. The answer would be once a quarter, rep feedback reports that go directly to the Regional Manager. I think that would be fair. After all, reps are constantly under the microscope with our numbers, why aren't managers?? The last manager I had with Abbott was a doozie. My favorite, was a rep faked jury duty one time when she was due to ride with him in the field, if that says anything...
