Does anyone know what the salary range is? I am in the interview process (although I hear that might be held up now due to a freeze).

I don't want to waste the hiring managers time. Is it feasible to think that Imight get a base of $75,000 to start. I have not sold devices in the past but have had hospital experience and have had interactions with the call points to sell. BTW...it is for the

I just came on board a few months ago. Was told in interview process range was from $60-$70,000. I accepted an offer at $72,000...I also had no device experience.

Thanks so much for the info. I wonder if you are the exception or do they go above that 60-70k here and there. In any event...CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
What a joke, paying that much base to dorks without medical device experience. They are reducing the base salaries of any one over $100 to pay for these people who worked at Best Buy and Costco. No wonder our sectior is going to hell in a handbag.

I couldn't agree more. What's worse, I know one new hire that was brought in at $80K not only without any device experience but no medical background at all. I couldn't believe it. It's from a verifiable source too. I know they were not talking smack.

Please don't waste our time since your experience in hospitals was as a "Candy Stripper". We need sales professionals, not wanna bees, we have enough of them in upper management. Let me know the name of the manager who you are talking with so we can get him fired for being an idiot. Bet is ED.
 
I'm not going to say anything just yet but it will be interesting to see how these newbies meet % to quota. No medical experience? They like people with copier experience, paychecks, Enterprise rent-a-car managers.
Pharma reps suck too. KC has not had one single Pharma rep that has been successful with this company. The paychecks and copier folks will probably be just as bad as the Pharma reps.

This post is over two years old. You're an idiot.
 
$70-80K no experience necessary. Commission structure has gotten better for high performers. As it should be. It's a $90K-120k job. Any seasoned successful rep would never work for this. However, if you are young, making $100K with a car, gas, insurance, laptop etc is a pretty sweet deal. I wish I was making this in my 20's. But the salary comes with a price, like golden handcuffs. It makes the average reps complacent. The good reps don't stay for $100K, they are always looking for something better, like potential and new products. Still, a good place to start. Good luck!

Starting reps..no experience is between 60k and 70k. NOT 70-80
90-120K. Work hard and you make a lot more. I made $149k last year and $136k the prior year.
YTD I've made $96k and it's only the end of July. You either have a crappy territory or you're an averge sales person at best.

Quality of lift is important and I think the money I make awards me an incredible quality of life.
I'm home for dinner with the family mot nights. Never bothered after hours or on the weekend. I'll stay here as long as I can.
 
I disagree the 90 % of the reps make $120k at kc. A top rep may make $140,and they work their asses off with a lot of work after hours like at any company. I just do not think you are a top rep. We know you are someone inside blue skying someone because you are full of it. And this is not trashing the company it is reality. You will make 90 to 105 year one if you get a crapy terr their is no forgiveness year 2 if you do not turn it around you are removed.
That is reality..my friend I have worked better places. I am over 100% working the comp plan and will make 125 maybe. Kc also likes to take money back from reps.

I work a normal da, perhaps take a little admin time in the morning. I am with my wife and kids most evening and every weekend. I'm not on call. Company car, full mantainance, gas, cell phone, 401k with matching contributions, profit sharing..a manager that's hands off but there if needed and made $145K last year. I'd say it's a great deal. Unfortunately, people find the need to complain. The device reps that make the big buck do not have the quality of life that I have. I wouldn't leave this company for anything.
