A good company being run into the ground by poor leadership - Sales Representative Verathon Employee Review

Pros

Products are good - but need to address stock issues

Cons

Leaders are missing in action during difficult times – the company has lengthy back orders on virtually every product, staff turnover is higher than ever and you hear next to nothing from the MD or heads of divisions. Everything is just ignored. Leaders never visit customers to face the music, and rarely travel (even outside of COVID times). Very few updates on the dire situation with stock. Salaries are fixed or worse, earning capacity is reduced. There is a complete lack of diversity – leadership is dominated by males, most sales reps are white.

Thank you for taking the time to write a review. We completely agree that the ongoing supply chain issues have been frustrating. Our leadership and Operations teams are working around the clock to provide innovative and new solutions to this crisis. Developments are occurring at a constant and rapid pace but we are doing all we can to prioritize and support our customers during this time. We also appreciate your feedback regarding the diversity at our company. In recent years, Verathon has had a strong focus on diversity and inclusion initiatives across the organization. Part of this work includes examining trends in promotions and working to make necessary changes to close any gaps identified. We are proud to say that last year 50% of our promotions into sales leadership roles were female. While we have made great progress, this is ongoing work and we rely on feedback and open discussion as part of that process. If you are open to it, please email us at humanresources@verathon.com to discuss this further. We welcome your feedback and strongly believe in giving every employee an opportunity to safely and confidentially discuss any concern they may have.
