Has anyone worked both and which do they prefer? Do they get paid the same? I am a LASR doing very well and deciding if I would rather go NAM vs LTC. What should I expext for a base/bonus upon promotion? This is my first pharma job and have been here less than 2 years. And please dont spew some nonsense like "go to another company." Thanks
If you really are a LASR then You should know what the LTC reps do, do you like going in nursing homes ? If not LTC is not for you. The NAMs basically call on Neuros and Primary care in their offices. And do have samples as LTC does not. Also LTC doesn't have to deal with Onzetra for migraine. If the territory has decent Onzetra sales might be good, if not much Onzetra sales, forget it , go for the LTC. Not many docs like the Onzetra powder Up the nose. And not many patients seem to be refilling their Onzetra scripts.
Both divisions are in serious HOT water. 2 months from now there will be VERY BIG reveal for the commercial team. I caution all you guys to gear yourselves, and your families for this. I am very disappointed in how this issue was managed. I cannot reveal, because only a few are privy to this info, and i cannot afford to out my identity. Managers will also be rocked.
Doubt it.... avanir is actively filling all LTC field vacancies. You people on here are toxic and incorrect
Wait, you mean you doubt we will hear about the Big Reveal at the National Sales meeting the week Of Sept 25th in DanDiego ? Or you mean you doubt their Will be any big reveal at all ?
if the big reveal is highly negative, like the poster claims, then no, we wont be hearing it ever because they're full of #%{. San diego will be all about the new MI and a bit of a rahrah. Avanir is doing EXACTLY what the people want, new leadership, new HR, yet people still complain. I'm excited to see what the next few years bring.
Will they announce the unemployment at the Sept 25th National Sales meeting or before ? (because where only 8wks away now at this point)
I have noticed that the only reps who are on here bitching are the specialty force. You rarely ever see any LTC or Psych reps on here spewing their shit. If you don't like it here, go somewhere else. Don't run to CNN or spread false rumors. There are a lot of good people here trying to support their families. Do your job and you will be fine.
