Company culture is good.Work life balance is ok.Training and trainers are really great.Here are the best scientific advanced trainings are given by one of the best training teams in the industry.

Dislikes

1.)They are giving unachievable targets without thinking about particular territory's potential and pressure on the field force.Company management just don't want to give incentives and good appraisals that's why they are giving unachievable targets to sales employees. 2)There are no foreign trips/cash prize for super achievers.EvenIndian companies are giving motivation to their employees by giving such trips/cash prize to their super performer employees.Many MNCs are also doing so. 3)Insurance is the part of your CTC here unlike many other good pharma MNCs.A good amount will be deducted from your CTC every year. <mark style="background-color: #fff5e4;"> 4)Incentive policies are worst in the industry</mark>.Management should seriously look into this if they really want to grow in India and want to be among top 10 "best place to work". 5)Company is really not serious about yearly health check ups, especially for field force which is the back bone of any company.Management should ensure a good health check up plan at local level(HQ level) or reimburse the amount. 6)Pathetic marketing strategies and very low pricing(even for the patented brands) for the institutions in comparison to competitors.Therefore,they are leaving far behind of competitors in brand value month by month despite of most efficient field force.This is time to serious introcpection of your marketing strategy makers.Very slow as compared to competitors.Company should be aggressive in terms of marketing strategies instead of being aggressive in doing cost cuttings for the field force.Hope for the best for AstraZeneca....Read More

Dislikes

I did not leave Astra Zeneca I worked there for 8 years got promoted from ABM to RBM , I was doing well suddenly organaisation sold one division which I was heading , Many people were shown doors , few were absorbed but were behaved as if organisation had shown pity on them I was also given to head a team after my division was wind up In that team my Natuonal Manager literally misbehaved with me . Used to reject my expenses . Used to use filthy language . Always in abusive mode . Even did not asked about my wife’s health when she was ill. Called me in Hotel very early in the morning & he himself took breakfast in front of me without offering me breakfast or tea. This was not the culture when I joined the organisation. Inhuman behaviour,Biased statement, calling without any agenda was order of the day & threatening was the only coaching as a RBM I left because of National Sales Manager One performing RBM all of a sudden becomes bad RBM & how to make was one thing I learned I<mark style="background-color: #fff5e4;"> also so ineffective inefficient HR team just enjoying things without any support . </mark> Even few ‘ yes sir ‘ people being given less targets & declared achiever...Read More
