NSM








So no Chemocentryx at this meeting? I thought they were "rare disease" with us? They call on some of the same offices as the GBU. Would have been good collaboration in some cases.
 


no changes to Horizon alignment. All of us are staying in rare disease. Chemocentryx pay is much lower so they couldn't be aligned in rare disease without salary bumps.
They are KAMs and got a pay bump to KAM level when they moved to Amgen. They are lower in our range, but we have some people that came over from IBU that are really low. Their’s is rare disease drug, too. Would be weird to keep two orphan status drugs with the same targets in two different business units.
 


















Amgen had a say in the budget for the NSM, but it was cheap. What is up with Bob? The CEO of Amgen needs pages of notes and a teleprompter to say nothing. It was funny that he had to look at Tim in the front row. Maybe he was nervous with all of that toxic male energy. Bob is a beta, for sure.

Horizon has better, higher-paid reps than Amgen. We are a round peg they will try to fit in a square space. The cultures are opposite. It was a great run. The best thing now is to wait for the money to dry up, then move on. That was the last time we would dance our asses off and drink at Tao on the company.
 


I don't agree with it but I was told Chemocentyrx was aligned with Enbrel and was staying there.

Oh, well, if someone told you that they were going to stay there, then it must be true. I’m not sure what you mean by aligned, but they’re just in the same BU just like the Otezla reps are. They may stay there - and the GBU may go there.

I think you may be right

OMG yes!
The welcome gifts were lackluster at best. The food was the same just recycled EVERYDAY.
The expert booths were informative but very elementary for such a large biotech company.
Bobs speech was odd and yes completely read off the page.
Culture is COMPLETELY DIFFERENT! Last year I left NSM inspired, this year I left it uninspired.
While P club in Monaco looks fun, the whole RSUs part is NBD, I’d rather have $.
I just don’t get the feeling that Amgen cares like Horizon did. We’re just numbers and everything is paired down to save money for shareholders.

ha yeah $7500 in RSU isn't getting me out of bed in the morning. How cheap AF. If they want to keep reps they need to pay. If they don't care about reps then don't pay but guaranteed Krystexxa sales drop if the reps leave. It really is a different beast and although not hard most reps can't figure it out.
