Expansion at Acadia?

Is your company expanding? I noticed a number of postings for Area Sales Directors and LTC Area Sales Directors.

If you are expanding, why? New product? New indication? Just under sized?

 

Appears as if they are management positions. Acadia recently hired someone who lied about previous jobs and title. Reference check must be a breeze

 

new indication 10x more patients

 

When is the new indication coming?

 

All hope by 2021...so, don't wait on it if you're a rep. Very good product...but, a terrible culture. If you 1 of 15 prime territories...it is a great place to be. All others...struggle.

 

What is the salary here? For LTC?

 

Why is it a terrible culture?

 

Not true. Yes there have been some bumps along the way but as far as pharma goes there aren’t many better places to be right now. Nothing wrong with the culture here now. Every rep in the company would like to see their own numbers be better. It is true that not all territories are created the same and some of the goal setting is a little off but hey, that’s pharma. Good luck to anyone that comes here!

 

Do your homework lazy ass.

And for the person that is mad about us hiring someone that “lied” on their resume. You’re mad because you didn’t get the offer or you’re making it up. Piss off troll!

 

Reps in LTC are underpaid. Top range is 118k

 

That’s not true. A recruiter called me a little an LTC position and the range of pay was over that

 

120k max base pay. Anything more needs special approval at sales director level and is not easy to pull off.

 

Everyone is waiting for DRP approval so there is a buyout and can cash out on stock options. Baker brothers could give a shit about ACADIA..they want a buyer at $100/share. Yes, let’s sell a drug in LTC that keeps people out of nursing homes. These places are profit organizations that make money by keeping the very sick in their nursing homes, and using less drugs.

 

These people need care anyway, idiot. How many people go to long term care not rehab. True long term care and come out? You don’t know what you are talking about. The drug will help them in there, not send them home

 

So what’s the salary like for these ltc jobs? Are they low balling to attract glorified PCP reps or will they pay for strong CNS exp?

 

low balling. I turned them down

 

What was the salary that you turned down?

 

With the expansion postings has anyone received their call for an HR phone screen yet?

 

And then on to hospice where the drug won’t be covered. Helps them for a few months when the drug wears off or their life deteriorates. I work in LTC..it’s true. Sad but very true

 

100-130k depends on current history and exp.
