    We have plenty of enbrel reps to sell your prescription biologicals. Lunch n learns for days and far superior success stories. Boy bye

    But we don’t sell rare disease with infusion. Enbrel is a sub-Q shot. I don’t mind Horizon bringing in the revenue for us

    There is literally no use in speculating what is going to happen. We have no idea what they plan on doing with the reps. Amgen changes their mind constantly.

    They absolutely check trackers! If they want you gone, they pull the tracker reports.

    How is it done? Currently, horizon gives a car allowance and the car belongs to me.

    amgen gives company cars through wheels and you have a gas card. You don’t pay for anything! insurance,oil changes, tires, windshields … it’s nice

    First of all , you will get a car when you come over there. You won't get to use your car and get a car allowance and mileage.

    second of all, we DO pay for personal miles. You put in your credit card, and it's taken out quarterly so the person who said you paid for nothing is sadly mistaken or does not work at Amgen. It isn't much--maybe $450 a quarter or so, but if you drive on vacation, it will be closer to $600 or $700 a quarter. But, you will either sell your personal car or keep it in your driveway as you will get a car with a tracker. That's a fact.

    And if your Dr goes to 2 territories --one being a teaching institution at a major university (where rare disease is treated) and if he goes to another territory...only ONE rep gets credit. That's a huge problem in rare disease and Amgen has never dealt with this. All I know is that I don't get credit for many Dr's who go to my territory and another territory and only one rep owns the Dr. FACT

    Were the chemocentryx reps immediately issued vehicles or was there a transition period? Thank you.

    (I'm the OP) There is no car allowance. You’ll be in a fleet car that includes a payment program for personal use. It’s pretty fair

    The whole tracker on your car thing is ridiculous, the cars do not have trackers. I have had a company car through wheels for every single company I have ever worked for but Horizon. You order the car it comes straight from the manufacture to the dealership which you pick up at the dealership. There is no tracker stop it with the fucking nonsense. Just do your damn job.

    agreed. So stupid. They don’t need a tracker in your car.

    The tracker is in your ipad, iphone or laptop. Every keystroke is trackable and reportable

    I see what we have here... a know it all.

    They do have a "tracker" but its not to see where you are going. It tracks your speed, how hard you brake- stuff like that. Its mainly for safety. And it is something that Wheels offers all of its clients. Its not a GPS type thing where your manager logins and can see where you are at. Your ipad isn't like that either.

    Most of Horizon territories only have 5 or so offices prescribing its products. So you guys don't work that hard and can be doing more. We know this already. I've heard multiple ways this goes. But more likely you guys will be getting bigger territories- you will be earning that big base salary lol. Minimal job cuts in Rheum. No job cuts with Tepezza and those smaller neuro drugs. Just what I'm hearing but nothing even close to being decided. They have to close on the deal first.
