The Bio-Strategy story: How to buy a company and burn it to the ground in 6 months
Pros
I’m pretty sure the warehouse isnt cluttered
Cons
-Management may have been selling used cars previously. -Management don’t seem to care about clients or staff. -Obsessed with beating Thermofisher -Don’t train their product specialists to be actual specialists in the products they sell. -Destroyed the former VWR business by: not stocking product; sending out stock late; ignoring the lessons learned by the VWR staff in the years they operated; lying to clients (by not fixing the obvious errors the system was advising OR not adjusting the method items were brought into the country in timely manner) -Member of management was taking credit for coming up with hunter gatherer analogy for sales (in cons because it takes restraint not to leap over the table and shake sense into a person that is obviously lying) -Shifting goal posts on targets when a big deal finally lands -Contract terminology is quite restrictive and should be read carefully (if you are an experienced rep make sure you cross out a clause that will cause issues down the track for you- you know which one) -Don’t get too attached to your co workers because at least one of them will leave each week.
