    Yes. They are HO, get bonuses and have goals. And the manager is a complete moron.

    Okay, that answers that question. I heard the manager had no sales experience and was extremely difficult to work for. Sounds like I'm better off staying in the field!

    Why would they make more? Its generally an entry level job, most of the team are brand new, fresh out of college or starting their first sales job and they sit on a phone all day long - attached to a headset - calling doctors offices and having meaningless conversations with some random tech, hoping they will gain approval to send in a bunch of marketing materials and some samples!

    I thought the same and just met some of them and can say you are 100% wrong. They have been there for years. Not sure if they make more but I doubt it's significantly less.

    They can't make much because they have NO field experience including the manager!

    I hope they don't make that much less than you guys. That's getting near the poverty line.

    And you're not special because you have "field sales experience." No one gives a shit, especially when it's at a pharma company :(

    You can just be a lifer and maybe make almost 100K once. Nice work.

    Ha! How is this any different from what we do?! Other than driving all day and delivering Panera to offices every week for an f'ing Pazeo script.

    I had a roommate at a meeting who was inside sales, the salary is in the 30s and they make some commission. And all are dying to get into the field but don't want to move from Dallas FTW. So if there's ever an opening everyone is begging for it

    You are so wrong. I have been here over 5 years and I am making double my salary in commission. You must suck. It is more than meaningless phone calls. We have to talk not just drop off food

    Inside sales is the worst. They over sample every account.
