Fun place to work. Flexible within reason. Growth potential.
Senior Project Assistant (Former Employee), Indianapolis, IN – June 14, 2013
Pros: flexibility.
Cons: i was laid off.
My day ranged from a slow steady stream to "I need to reprioritize again". I was able to develop my adminstrative skills to include project support. The environment is social and my colleagues became like a family - with boundaries. The hardest part of the job was convincing our customers to be patient while we found the "right" training solution. The – more... most enjoyable part of the job was delivering a training solution to key stockholders. I also enjoyed lunching with my colleagues. – less

Industry leader with incredible advancement opportunity
Diabetes Sr. Sales Representative (Current Employee), Minneapolis, MN – May 8, 2013
Pros: the people, the culture
Cons: length of time it often takes to effect much needed change due to bureaucracy, i.e., big company syndrome
Eli Lilly is a great company to work for with incredbile advancement opportunities. The sales rep position is one of the best positions in the entire company. The primary objective of a pharmaceutical representative is to build strong relationships with health care providers and to provide the HCP and their staff with ongoing education and relevant – more... informaton, including solutions and resources that help the HCP reach their patient's treatment goal. If you're looking to advance your success as a rep is largely contingent upon your ability to influence prescribing habits, how quickly you can connect and build relationships as well as how adept your District Sales Manager is at developing and leading people, how well they are able to help you establish and make connections with key managers within your district as well as with management inside corporate. – less
