Received a call for a full line rep job. Is this a good position within Ethicon and the medical device industry. I am coming from a business to business sales background. Was told from a friend this is very entry/low level and the company treats you like a robot. Is this true?

great place to start if you're coming from B2B. definitely move on it. only problem is you will most likely be defending business rather than converting new business. but it gets you in the OR, stay 2 yrs then move on to something better.

Not knowing the business what would be "better"?

Virtually anything. For endo, Styker or Storz, for cardiac, Medtronic or St Jude or Abbott, for ortho, Synthes or Smith & Nephew or DePuy. They all pay significantly more. I heard those scope jobs pay around 200K and aren't that tough. I think Synthes pays even more than that, but those guys work a helluva lot of hours.
 


Ethicon Endo is the laughing stock of the industry. The reps stand in cases making sure nurses swish their staplers out after they are used. Most of them are always complaining how long they work for 90-100k. Entry level position at best.
 


What is reality as far as the amount of cases a rep is in per week? Not what your trainer or boss tells you but the number of cases necessary to get the job done.

I'm new but already getting the "why are you here?" type of stare
