Please think very carefully before joining this company.


There was an expansion but it occurred a year ago. The reason for all the vacancies is quite simply that AAH has a huge problem with rep turnover. The average length of service of a US field rep (VPC) is under a year. This is due to several factors including excessive micromanagement, bullying managerial tactics, and the sheer demands of the job. Theere have been both terminations and resignations, but I do not know what the ratio is between them. Many new reps quit befoe they even finish the initial training class when the true culture of AAH becomes apparent.


A VPC (Veterinary Practice Consultant) is what AAH calls their sales reps. The job is divided between direct sales to vet practices, working with distributor reps to try to induce them to support Abbott's products and administrative tasks.


It doesn't really matter which position you choose (but who the hell would want to work in Detroit?) the shit will pile up faster than you can deal with it. Do yourself a favor and look for a job somewhere else.
