<p>[QUOTE="anonymous, post: 5652233"]It was great: no call reporting, no bullshit reports, just selling this new biologic and being paid major coin. 6 figure bonuses plus stock grants. Expensing everything at your house cell, cable, etc. Taking your docs out to football games where we rented out the boxes. Bagging a billion, and tens of thousands of points. Great gifts in the room, meetings that were basically a thank you for a sales job well done. Definitely no role plays. We ruled! Then about 2006, the first wave of players started checking out. A slight J&J intrusion but no big deal still being paid really well. SH still at the helm telling us how great we were. Then came KT & COBI and a few more players check out sensing something is off. Things got progressively worse 2009- 2011 saw more J&J corporate types invading a once successful biotech company as they wanted to put "biotech" on their resume bringing big pharma and the Peter Principle front and center. More talent from the field says no thank you and leave. Those remaining are told they are lucky to have a job and they should be grateful for the swill they are being served. From 2012-present management by fear and intimidation is the norm as MH funnels her own personal misery onto an entire sales force. Reps hang on for an unattainable 10/55 that doesn't actually pay out all that well. Very few actual talented sales reps still exist and that's what they are doing, existing. Not thriving, they would need incentive for that. A sales force of reps straight out of college paid 60K being set up to sell the once mighty Remicade. Place your bets on Simponi & Stelara but the man is going to take your money from the table. Too many other great molecules out there being sold by former Centocor reps. It's a great paper for some Wharton MBA to right their thesis on. The demise of a biotech giant. I guess the mediocrity of big pharma eventually erodes everything. I got two final interviews this week. Even if it's for the same amount of money, I got to go. This place has no soul.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
