What's a regular work week for you? Are you working 9-5 everyday? Does this company micromanage the reps? Also, I saw a post about how you have to pay for your own company car? Please explain.
They offer you pay outs so they can lock down your clinic revenue for x amount of years.
This helps prevent the continual downward spiral of financial disaster they experience.
Antech people used to cruise around bragging about how they don't put clinics on contracts like Idexx, and now it's all they know how to do.
The professionalism is gone now. It's mostly people who get off on big talking, while performing the same tasks any idiot could do.
There are a great handful of clients who can't wait for their contracts to end, so don't end up like one of them!!
My hospital was definitely one of those which benefitted because of the expertise of my Antech sales rep. Sadly, he is gone now, but he definitely taught me how to become more efficient and profitable by sending most of my lab work out to Antech.
They know what their service is worth, and that they cannot compete in a marketplace that offers better quality service without paying the hospitals to use them. If they want you to sign a NDA before they even tell you what the "deal" is going to be, wouldn't that say that is shady at the least? They know that in order to close deals and get new clients they have to:
1. Give a large sum of money up front to the clinic
2. Give away the labwork at a very low price (what it is worth)
3. Lock the client in to a multiyear contract that requires them to give back the "payoff" if they leave.
Not the actions of a reputable company. This practice is illegal (not just immoral, but illegal) in the human laboratory field.
