New hire




So I have been contacted by a recruiter for this company. I cant find much. What's it like working there? Pay? Work life balance? Cars?
Place is a toxic dumpster fire. Due your due diligence and reach out to folks on LinkedIn who came and went from this sh@t hole (there are many) and make your own decision.
 


Avoid - DO NOT leave a job to work here, you will regret it. Only work here as a last resort and keep looking for job elsewhere. It’s Korean owned and they run the place like it’s in Korea—not good. The Koreans barely speak English and use Korean kids who can’t speak English as “TLLs” to do sales calls and do never ending ride alongs because they think Americans are lazy and don’t work so they send these KTown kids to ride along with reps and do field constant reports. You will have two maybe three managers - Americans and Koreans. The Americans have no real say, only the Koreans have authority and decide everything, yet they have no idea what they are doing. The docs don’t like the Korean kids either but they don’t seem to get that. The Koreans pretend to be nice to sales reps because so many have been quitting but then they get Americans reps fired if you don’t get the unrealistic patient numbers they want. There was a mass exodus in April & May so they randomly gave out retention letters promising extra stay bonuses to some reps—the amounts were all over the place, based on how much the Koreans liked the rep. Many didn’t get a retention letter and were pissed. Some don’t believe they will pay since they don’t pay IC on time anyway. Management doesn’t seem to get that the high turnover is due to the Koreans managers, constant field alongs & overall shitty culture of the company. IC is paid months after the quarter and payouts are low for most reps unless there’s a high scripting IDN in the territory. There’s no selling training or strategy, just sketchy tactics the Koreans want that don’t work. No real onboarding, HR messes up benefit choices and 401k payments with no apology, just lame excuses, onboarding is a sloppy mess, asked the Korean compliance guy a question about in service concur input he had idea about sunshine and admitted it - not kidding. There’s no fleet cars for reps just a shitty low $ car allowance—your on your own for a car. And don’t bank on the car allowance, that goes away when they fire you. The National meeting was pointless and the Korean CEO gave a super weird speech that was inappropriate and just made people uncomfortable—everyone hated the meeting but turned in positive feedback questionnaire answers to avoid being fired—because that is all that happens here. 70% of reps are looking for a job to get away from the high pressure sales tactics the Koreans want that don’t work. You’ve been warned. And trust me, I’m leaving the really bad stuff out…this is the worst company in the industry to work at.
 


I agree with all the things said here and I will say they spun a bunch of bullshit about how culture will get better with the new VP they brought in. More horseshit.... this guy talks out both sides of his mouth. No concept of how to run a specialty sales force in GI. Setting expectations to 8 in person calls a day with doctors, 2 set appointments a day, and frequency goals on directors of ibd clinics. Guy is clueless like the rest of leadership. He says "farther together" and then is constantly hiring outside the company for roles in msl, frm and managers. When the directors leave , this company is toasted bc everyone will bounce . The east and west directors are the only thing holding this shithole of a sinking ship together.
