I'm sorry to hear about everyone losing their jobs but it seems like Auriga is a better company to work for now than Cornerstone.

Auriga has better products they are promoting:

Extendryl
Keflex
and coming soon a liquid ADHD medicine (the only liquid that will be on the market.

The offer a better package for salaried reps than the one Cornerstone is retaining their "selected" reps with. They also offer fairly good bonuses.

Cornerstone only has AllerX which just increased in price by 50% and Spectracef's (whose only competitive advantage was the price) price just doubled from $3 a pill to $6. It will be almost an impossible sell to states where it's not covered on Medicaid. Deconsal has a generic and is about $50/ prescription when Extendryl is only about $20.

BAH HA HA HA .....

I hope the CBP reps that were let go don't buy this crap. Get in with a REAL pharma company, none of this commission CRAP.

A ton of things are wrong with the above poster ...

1 - They failed to mention that a lot of people that were involved with Auriga are now involved with CBP.

2 - Auriga reps are only salaried if they are in like the top 50% of the company and then the salary is only something around $28K.

3 - Look at the auriga board, their bonuses are nothing.

4 - He/She has a point about price. That was the ONLY thing going for spectracef. And there are 1000 alternatives to AlleRx that are a quarter of the price.

5 - There are already liquid ADHD meds on the market, not to mention chewables and the capsules you can just take apart and sprinkle on food.

For all those good reps that were displaced by CBP, wait it out and land a real pharma job. Commission does not and will not work.

Auriga is NOT a better company than Cornerstone. They only pay 20 reps $20,000/ year the bonuses haven't amounted to anything and the stock is at 2 cents. We are probably weeks away from going under.

Cornerstone doesn't even have 20 reps now a days. And if you call 28k in total comp plan being a pharm rep, you need to find another job, literally to pay all those bills bra.......
