PREP

Ha...this guy is pulling your leg. And how do I know? My wife works in TA--she knows exactly who was hired and at what salaries, etc. She even laughed at this post!

 

These sound like great jobs. I'm jealous.

 

I bet they will be. And each person hired was an internal candidate--no one from the outside was placed. A lot of boy's club elbow rubbing.

 

Yeah, my buddy got one of these positions. Didn't even go through the interview process, his manager in Hep was moved into a mgmt role and promised him a position. Pretty lucrative from what it looks like. Funny thing--my buddy is the biggest homophobe, not sure how he'll do. Sometimes I wonder what Gilead is really thinking.

 

That's not true. External candidates were hired.

 

Nice that their paying you to relocate. Hopefully you're going to a warm territory!

Unfortunately no to warm territory, will be in New York.

 

Ha, none that I'm aware of....all internal buddies of the hiring managers.

 

Abbvie mole eats shit

 

There were some externals. Geez.

 

Correct - 50/50 split between internal & external

 

This will take over the PrEP market soon enough: http://www.hivplusmag.com/prevention/2017/1/03/gates-foundation-new-anti-hiv-drug-device-revolutionary. Then Gilead will really head down the toilet....

 

How do people like this role?
Does it seem like being a primary care rep?

 

This is really funny. A few points to clarify for you trolls:
-no such thing as upgrading to a manager car
-salary range depends on where you are coming in at
-Gilead is one of the top payers so if you earn it, you will get it
...most importantly, be patient! No one worth looking at is on Cafe Pharma as their resource for real info.

Be patient, be professional.

 

yes yes yes. Its primary care all over again .

 

So, if you are already in biotech (rare disease just not HIV) and you have a salary of 145k already would you get a raise or start where you are with no pay increase and maybe a sign-on bonus? What is vacation time starting out and how long before you get more? That's my biggest concern...not as much as pay, but having time off in this business.

 

Don't know if you would get a bump
In salary but vacation is 3 weeks and you get a 4th week after 5 years .. 401k is sweet . They deposit 10k every year no matter how much you contribute
