OMG this company is the bomb . Not only are they telling us who to call on and how often, but now we can't even check cafepharma?! How else am i gonna find out what is going on with this company? Forget the bashing of Mike Hilton, who was actually an effective leader, or JK, whose not a bad guy, just perhaps in over his head...but more potential mergers and acquisitions....come on Acorda, this site isn't all bad and occasionally informative.Please stop all the control issues and big pharma tactics and let us do what we did with zanaflex and that was sell the crap out of a mediocre "me too" drug at best. After all the firing's at this small biotech company, i'm starting to wonder if we actually ruins more lives than helps?
Is senior management worried that the company that buys us will not want them around based on what they read... Truth hurts I guess.
This place has really gotten bad. Too much big pharma mentality. The RBD's are stressed and starting to do the type of things that make reps want to leave. Three weeks into the blitz and already I'm being looked at like I'm some POD rep coming in way too much. I know how to run my business and this is completely the wrong way. Oh well, keep collecting the check I guess.
I think it's because they realized that 2 calls per day with bonuses in the six figures is pretty ridiculous! Why pay for ABMs to continue to act as if selling zanaflex was some accomplishment and complain about everything on this site instead of actually selling one of the best drugs on the market. Get over it already...really, let it go. and before you think this is a home office perspective, remember there are plenty of us who joined the field team and think the "old guard" has been hiding long enough. How bout you call on some docs and sell the drug. We only have two drugs and no one is really selling z so it's more like one. How hard is that? Whiners and hangers on. Pathetic.
Kerry needs to step up and demand that abms be held accountable. This is a total sham what's happening in the field by old guard peeps. Despicable. Not even working!
Talk about censoship. What happened to "LS-control freek-in over head" thread. The truth must really hit home, she's afraid of being exposed
Finally a thread thats telling the truth! I'm floored at all the negativity for this company. And who's the Hilton guy? Didn't he work here like 5 years ago? Get a life!
what is old guard people? what in house moron is writing this nonsense. i've never been to a company where in house blames the sales people and asks for accountability we all have over 10 years solid sales experience and want to make money, sell the product and do right by the company this is not pfizer, merck or big pharma where this is our first sales jobs we have proven ourselves to be successful by working by ourselves and running a territory like its our own business people in house, if you've never been in sales you dont know what your talking about. things arent working because the distribution process was and still is a disaster...as was posted previously, drs do not want the hassle ...too bad really, great product and RC is truly passionate and caring And KC, you SUCK and are more hated the Casey Anthony. kARMAS A BITCH,BITCH!! BOO YOU
Those are old Hilton hires which RC needs ween out. I agree Kerry does not know how some old guard members are still a poison in the company.
All of the "old guard" people I have dealt with, left great jobs with good companies to take a chance on RC. There were several times we didn't know if Ampyra would ever make it to market. We felt like we had a hand in the building of Acorda. We loved Acorda then, and still love it, just hate to see the direction it is being taken. I'm glad loyalty is not one of the pmv's. Otherwise it would be broken just like the one about communication, and "we don't shoot the messenger" one.
direction? there is none! also the P and v's??? a joke. No one works or lives by them here. I know several new people on board within year who are looking already to get out. What does that tell ya?
