Horrible, toxic culture on Singapore Sales team

Associate product specialist

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good industry as it is in the business of saving lives. Recession proof, largely.

Cons

Sales managers are not training people managers. The environment is not conducive to learning or asking questions. This leads to inefficient attempts at getting necessary information to do one's job. Sales manager is bullying, intimidating, and uses fear to try to "inspire" the team to bring in sales. These are not good people management practices, and ultimately led me to despise this job.

Business Outlook

Pros

none none none none none none none none none none none none none none none

Cons

Don’t pay overtime, but still expect “flexible hours” from workers. Expect employees to keep putting their hands in THEIR pockets for expenses, which are EVENTUALLY repaid, No such thing as a float. Give a USELESS American Express “company” credit card which WE have to pay by direct debit and then claim back !!! No appreciation, NO career path esp. if you are MALE. This is a slave-driving American company. I wouldn’t advise my worst enemy to work for this crowd. If I could get out I would !

Declining Company

Clinical specialist

Business Outlook

Pros

Benefits are excellent, pay is decent. Many good people at the field level but beyond that, not so much.

Cons

Epitome of impersonal and sterile corporate culture above the supervisory level. Neuro (RTG) is dying a dramatic death in the final days. Highly recommend you move on to other horizons.
