Don't Interview With This Company


I just got a call from Horizon and the guy was the biggest asshole I have ever spoken to about a job on the phone. He caught me completely off guard as I was carrying in a crying toddler and two bags of groceries. He was completely pissed I could not remember the name of the drug. I have sent out 50 fucking resumes and we had no preset appointment to talk. How about asking if this is a good time, so perhaps we could have an intelligent conversation? Now after looking at the horrible posts, I'm thinking I need to run as far away from Horizon as I can. My gut tells me the docs are not going to be at all impressed with Duexis either. Old rerun molecules=horrible doctor reception. Am I wrong?

You have kids? You are out of the running for the job. This company does not want people who have families and outside lives. You will be expected to work nights and weekends. 10 signature calls per day no calls later than 8:30 and last call at 5. If you by chance have a day where you don't see anyone till 9-9:30 or can't see anyone after 3:30 be expected to write a daily email explaining why. If you do what they want, expect to write a daily emailing detailing how you can do more. If you love your kids and your family, don't put them through the nightmare of working for this company.

Desperation to fill an empty territory. You might even get a call back. Empty territories generate no revenue. . .oh wait most territories aren't generating any revenue! Run from this company no regrets!

Dear Self 5 months ago, Please read the above post and pass on this opportunity.

Sincerely,

Young, worn out and beaten with a stick in the present.

NO!!! You are not wrong! Please do not waste your time on this company it was big mistake I wish I would not have made. EVERYTHING you read here is true. If you are a good rep, just look elsewhere.

AMEN!!!!!
 
Two weeks of no Rxs!
 
I have a phone interview soon for a position in the South....won't mention where...but looks like from these posts you guys are not happy here.....any insight for me??

If BM is the manager RUN, RUN, RUN. He will expect you to do report after report after report. He will expect you to do pharmacy calls on weekends and conference calls in the evenings. You will have no work life balance. NONE. He is the king of all micromangers. Will want 10 signature calls per day and if you don't have your first call by 8:30 or last call at 5 he will make you email him detailing him why. Oh, and the district is in last place. So you won't make any bonus.

Good luck

Post is 100% accurate. I am in this district and would not wish it on my worst enemy. I have a final interview this week and am hoping to be out of here by end of next week.
 
BM is actually a very nice guy. He is just a little inexperienced as a manager and has not learned how to handle stress and is still learning how to motivate his sales people. He is not a bad guy though.

He is not a bad guy. If you are performing he leaves you alone. If your numbers suck then watch out!
