Hi all! interviewing at this company and was curious as to what folks thought? Heard the comp plan was AWFUL in ‘22, but better now? Hearing 200K+ realistic from one person, then another says 150-180K more likely? East coast in Philly territory Is what I’m talking about. Products good, no good. Any/all feedback appreciated
Products are good. Doctors can be great to work with. Zero chance of hitting $200k on this comp plan. Unless you finish in the top 5 and hit all your buckets and bonuses you wont hit $180k either. If you finish top ten and hit a few bonuses you might claw your way to $150k, but then the corporate team will change the comp plan again and every year you will make a little less, and pay a little more for your benefits. Also, no matter what the comp plan says, it is all based on your sales budget, and that will always be unrealistic. Not to mention they will require you to sell four scanners to qualify for your bonuses, so you actually work for Align now. Sales leadership sucks. Honestly, all of them.
Wow! Thanks for that info! I’m guessing you’re aware of the new comp plan change as well? curious as to if you have any thoughts on Alpha medical/ Shimadzu Diagnostic. I have an interview at 3 Today and would be obliged to speak with your prior to, get some more questions to ask them? 856-630-8974
i have been with the company a long time- pre merge. i have made $250k and i have made $150k. Every year is different depending on you quota and how you are tracking. the least amount i ever made was $140 and that was way before the merge. if your territory is between 1.5-2 million you can make 180k if you are consistent and get your quarterly bonuses. if you are having a bad year and miss all your numbers you wont make good money at all. obviously the more revenue the territory is worth the higher the comp. products are great! having a good regional manager is very important. good luck!
Don't fall for the illusion either by the mgr or HR making $150K, CONSISTENTLY. That's the key term. Your best opp to hit that income would be your first full year. After that, it's a roller coaster of W2's going up and down every year. You might hit $130K when you average out the years, should they decide to keep you that long. My honest opinion, if you plan on taking the job, is to jump ship after 2 years. Use it as a launching pad to better things within medical sales/biopharma. If you already have that experience, then why would you come here?
Hi! Appreciate all the advice, and I withdrew the other day. And I do have capital experience, although I’m in device now and really liking it (fairly easy). The allure was making big $ and I think (still) the perception is capital reps are better than device guys, thus paid more and more marketable. My 2 questions are this: A-I hear all the time hospitals have no $, this also factored into my choice, do you find it more difficult/the same/easier selling into hospitals vs pre 2020? B- I hear you when you say they don’t pay well, consistently here. My question to that, is they seemed (and stressed) having many reps that are long tenured and not being too heavily numbers focused. Curious as to why you think they have good tenure numbers from their sales force
