Vertex base pay for their RFL’s is a joke. The compensation for Regional Field Leaders (RFLs) is significantly below industry standards, especially given the workload and responsibilities we are managing. 210K base. Many of us took substantial pay cuts to join Vertex, trusting in the long-term opportunity and the companys vision. However, the lack of a bonus or increase in base pay is disheartening, particularly when other roles, such as PTAMs, are receiving pay adjustments after only being here 6 months. The RFL’s all took major base pay hits to come here. After a grueling year of hiring, training and running multiple meetings/workshops they only are giving us a 3% bump in pay. There will be turnover amongst the RFL team. The majority of us took 40-50K base pay reductions to join the team.
Vertex training and marketing never run anything By their RFL team who has a vast knowledge and experience launching drugs. They just continue with the fire drills every week. If they would stop and actually pull in their leadership team it would help reduce the redundancy and errors that are constant. The field team often feel like we are being spoken to as if this were our first sales job. Training department never Runs anything by the RFL team. Which is why we have had to run each and every workshop at every meeting. We are all burnt out and fed up. There is zero trust for the commercial team. Home officers insists on overseeing CVA certifications, and making everything so much more complicated than it needs to be. Feels like middle management and like we are the least valued part of the organization.
