VP of Sales (Current Employee) – Vancouver, BC – 8 December 2017
A family oriented company. Vanguard has created a fantastic work environment that is concerned about the well being and passion of their employees. They strive to enrich the employee experience every day.
Sales reps are treated like uneducated high school grads
Pharmaceutical Sales Representative (Former Employee) – Toronto, ON – 20 October 2017
Horrible managers, extreme favoritism, lack of respect towards sales reps who are very educated and experienced. Reps treated like a herd of animals and expected to drop everything last minute once they decided to host far away meetings.
Vanguard has a great work life balance and the company really tries to take care of their employees as best as possible. I have had great opportunities and great people to work with over the years.
Apart from our targtte markets, i was able to pursue other fields of medicine that could benefit from our skin care line. e.g. diabetic clinics and general medicine offices
