Think very carefully before taking a field sales / marketing role at Ipsen. The management style is micro management, inconsistent application of policies to suit senior leadership and some tactics/ behaviours that border on bullying. Stress levels are high in the field and marketing teamand retention is poor, must be one of the worst in the industry. Highly unrealistic sales targets mean sales bonuses are often impossible to achieve
Senior leaders becoming less accommodating on the COVID situation and putting pressure on the teams to achieve virtual activity targets despite the challenges in the nhs. All sales teams questioned in front of peers on what they’ve done every day! Despite enforced working from home, refusal to move times of calls when teams are homeschooling and caring for young children has resulted in low morale . All decisions controlled by UKLT/ GM and first line leaders have no autonomy . Engagement survey results for the UK were awful but no recognition or accountability for this has been seen yet.
