Home office employee here. I have been with Akorn 5+ years. The post about the Tampa rep has it totally wrong, if you were in home office when it took place you could have seen the reaction of everyone here in the office excited and happy and clapping that someone stood up and asked a question to Raj about something/anything. Raj opened the floor up to questions and we are all sure he didn't want any questions but when he got it he was embarrassed. The fact of the matter was that everyone wanted to ask the question and nobody else stood to ask, yet everyone wanted to know the answer. The truth is a few senior managers reached out when the question happened in 100% support. If you were here at Akorn at that time you would have known that our bonus checks had been pushed back for two weeks and then again another two weeks without any information about why from senior management. Part of the problem here at Akorn is that senior management wants feedback but only if it's positive and it's working. The truth behind all this is more and more outside sales force is looking to leave or leaving for more money. I enjoyed working with both the Tampa rep and the Charlotte rep and wish them the best. Being in home office we hear things good and bad, I'll set it straight that Brett and Raj reached out to the Tampa rep to find out first hand what is with the decision to leave. If we know the Tampa rep then they won't hold back with their answers to hopeful help Akorn in the future. The truth in home office is that Raj hides behind Bruce, and Bruce hides behind Brett, instead of Bruce and Raj coming to the front lines and communicate to all employees outside and in home office.
