Awful place. Avoid working here.

Pros

Some of the people are decent and honest, but not management especially senior managers and directors. The work itself quite enjoyable.

Cons

Unless you are a manager or senior management then forget working here. They treat their staff horrendously and don’t see the issues right in front of them. You’ll never get praise for anything you do, you’ll never get a payrise and forget about any flexibility or compassion. Unless you’re in a certain ‘click’ you’ll never do well. Overworked, underpaid and not appreciated. The worst HR department I’ve ever known. Have no clue what they are doing and again on management side only. None of their ‘values’ are adhered to, which the company state they do! Avoid working here unless you want to be unhappy.

Pros

The only Pro to Henry Schein are the healthcare benefits....other than that...NOTHING!

Cons

Although Henry Schein has grown on the Fortune 500 list over the past 4 years..it is at the expense of their employees and even sales people. The company is only concerned with growth at any expense. They do not care about employees or turnover. They are masters at creating internal competiton among their sales people as well. The Zone Technology Managers that should be helping you sell more are only there to send you a monthly score card of where you are in sales. They think that sales should be closed equally over a 12 month calendar year..hello??? has any one ever heard of sales cycles??? Their plan is to hire as many field reps as possible with no set territory and let everyone fight for sales amongst themselves. Don't even get started on E4D....management thinks that pounding on the DTS's will bring E4D sales...when they have not given any quota to the FSC's!! How stupid is that?? Now they charge the sales people when a doctor uses a credit card! That is just pathetic...Talk about nickle and diming the sales people to death. The first opportunity I get to work for a competitior to Schein ....you better believe I am going to do it... DON'T WORK FOR THIS COMPANY !!!! YOU WILL LIVE TO REGRET IT!!

Atrocious company ethics

Pros

Annual wage increase. Set hours, not shift work. Tea/coffee, squash provided.

Cons

Training is basically non-existent. Incredibly high turnover of staff. Customers talk to you like scum, management do not intervene. In fact, if someone shouts, swears, insults you, they will be treated as a priority! Sales reps, who are your colleagues, talk to you just as badly. Their behavior is not addressed because they make the company money. The sole focus of the business is to make as much money as possible, they do not care who they step on on the way. Constantly under staffed, so always over-worked, and definitely under appreciated. They say they aren't a call centre, yet every day there is a meeting about how many calls were lost the previous day - they couldnt care less how many calls you may take, only how many are lost is addressed. There is no focus within the role, you are pulled from pillar to post on a daily basis. You are not listened to when you share an opinion, it is a dictatorship from management. If it wasnt for some good people there, the minimal morale level would be underground. Very little chances for promotion.
