Is Anyone Happy They Made the Move to Regeneron?
Is anyone happy they made the move to Regeneron to sell alirocumab? All of these posts are negative about both the company and the drug. Is this really such a bad move that people seem to be regretting or cancelling out on? Or are there a few happy people that like the company and are positive about joining Regeneron to sell alirocumab? I was excited to explore the opportunity. But, after reading all of the negative posts, I'm questioning whether or not to move forward.

Fire Drill
Every week there is an assignment...will you just let us sell. The amount of trackers, team meetings, district conference calls, manager call time to discuss "business", and administrative work is unreal. This is especially true if one is considered a "team leader", which is part of a manager job with any other pharma company. Would you just let us sell our drugs!

Lilly is Hypocritical
Has anyone noticed that all of Lilly's news statements about the discrimination that is going on in Indiana right now are total 'non-answers'?
Lilly is one of the most guilty in the state in IN than anyone. Examples?
Recent class action law suit by African Americans which Lilly lost
LGBT receiving tons of discrimination down to rocks and fire thrown at their home windows
The last reorg of 2013: majority of DSMs and DOS were highly paid, extremely talented and over 40.
Male Caucasians getting passed over by less talented individuals due to race.
HR keeping track of diversity hires.
I could go on and on. This company disgusts me. Liars, hypocrites and fools. One of the biggest discriminatory companies in the state.
I will never take a Lilly drug. Oh wait, I don't have to. They are all generically available. What they do have are me too's and don't work. Diabetes meds suck, 3-5th to the market and nothing in the pipeline. Don't even get me started about Elanco.
Lilly deserves decreases in sales.

I thought outside the box today!! I leveraged National Doctor's Day and got pastries from Panera and dropped them off at my top 10% decile hyper-target accounts. I even wrote cute notes to all the Drs. I couldn't see and wished them happy National Doctors Day!
I know my pod-mates didn't think of it, but just to make sure I texted my DM during the day and left a success story on VM which I am sure he will pass on to the team!!
I was so super excited about my achievements today I even did an extra pharmacy call on the way home!
I know I will be driving market share for Q2 and even build more momentum for the rest of the year. Presidents Club here I come !!!!

Associate sales rep position
Hello all,
Question about the associate sales rep position here. I assume this is a helper rep of sorts who just does fittings and paperwork? If anyone could be so kind to give me an idea of compensation, benefits, 1099/w2, I would appreciate the help.
Also, are the postings on your site due to an expansion or did all these people leave? That might make a difference :)

Associate sales rep position
Ok Salix, sell me on why I should "go to work".
There has been much back and forth on how we should stay focused and just work, etc.
Sell me on it then.
Well there are patients out there that need therapy - Not likely cause if the patients mattered so much then you would be keeping all of the reps who bring the product to their providers.
This deal is not done yet, anything can happen - No it can't because Endo tried that and we went running back to Valeant for more money.
You don't want to be behind the 8 ball (dumbest overused reference of all time) when you are retained and hurt your rank - Not likely since we don't know what territory, products, weighting, samples, targets, etc. that we will have.
I understand that you are told by the mothership to keep us going, but why give us 6 more weeks of talks with VALEANT. What have you been doing since February?

Where are some of the highest base/total comp in the field? Looking for the relationship building/minimal cold calling, granted you have enough exp. Where do a lot of the ppl in medical want to get to, what are some of the best opps out there in general?

How much do you like your company car and would you order it again?
I am over 80,000 miles and I just got my e mail to order a new company car.
My choices are Nissan Altima, Volkswagen Passat, Chevrolet Malibu, and Hyundai Sonata.
In the past I have had an Altima and a Malibu. I enjoyed both cars.
Anyone have an opinion about the Passat or the Sonata?
Obviously I can read the online reviews of each car, but what is your opinion from a reps perspective?
I do drive quite a bit since I have a semi rural territory, so reliability and comfort are two of my key factors since I spend a lot of time in the car.
Thanks in advance for your responses!

Heads are rolling across Asia. Country directors and functional heads being dismissed all over Asia. Replaced with newer prettier faces with minimal experience if they are being replaced at all.

CR, How could I not be after your awesome email!! Telling everyone how much money everyone else may or may not have made makes me wanna start work early. Heck, I may camp out early in front of me first office. He even realized what a Specialty Rep does.
Of course, no mention of out downsizing. No mention of lying about the lack of territory change. No mention of final rankings.
I would love to see what the explanation as to why they did what they did. Replacing reps with reps from PC or ISF, changing territories and losing relationships while at the same time trying to launch a new product. It makes no sense. Bottom performers? Didn't we jettison those a few months ago (theoretically). How can there still be low performers? They have had much time to prove much to anyone.

As we all prepare to leave the z team- I have over 36k shares of vested stock options -that I need my SCUBA tank to recover - I have to say I am not ready for Vegas. - I am a terrible gambler and the loss hurts.. Almost as if we were cheated in some ways. For some of us here 5 + yrs - and others who sacrificed 1/2 pay and crazy work schedule. -trying to make this work..,
I exit with little to no hope the stock will miraculously go up 400% to break even on my. " stake in the game". I wonder if Rh will lose what he worked for? oh wait yeah- he just sold out the sales team...and most of home office.
RH - we are not Zogenix- we are expendable - as I guess, any sales team is. So sad and ironic to think -.we were this new, different pharm company, that we would joke ..we were building this company - just like - building an airplane while flying it...I was wrong and naive - Zgnx no more valued it's. Sales people then Merck Novartis gsk - RH is selling off pieces of that plane -and we are headed for a crash. ..And I drank the Kool Aid the flight attendant was serving. What I do value from this experience is the great people I met - some extraordinary and very talented sales reps with whom I wish nothing but the best at Pernix & beyond. I am gonna frame my stock option award statement and hang it in my office to remind me .... 36,000 times - to stop believing in companies, products and charismatic people like RH -who really are all the same. ... and put more belief in myself. - my advice to all my soon to be X zogenix team ...you do the same.

Pegasys was a great ride but we knew the end was coming. I must say that Genentech kept their word and kept the sales force to the end. Most of us made moves that we needed to make and those "Left Behind" for the most part were dead weight with a lot of baggage. Not all, a few great people went down with the ship and a decent severance package, and I feel it was a bad area they lived in and couldn't move and a few the company just abandoned. I wish those the best and trust life has a funny way of working out.
To those that were dead weight, read the writing on the wall and realize you need a different and new career. It sounds harsh but it's the truth and management just didn't have a good way of honest reviews for you.
I really enjoyed working with Genentech and wish everyone happiness and health.

Pfizer moving to a 100% TBO
I am hearing some serious info that Pfizer is moving to a 100% TBO evaluation for bonus. Several divisions already are there or close to there. Just look at vaccines which is 100% TBO and others such as IS which is majority TBO. Strange the Pfizer is taking on the GSK model which hasn't worked. Anyone else see the same thing for all sales divisions?

Interview Process
Could anyone tell me more about the interview process for a sales rep? Does the online sales assessment have an impact on getting an interview or if you take the assessment will you be getting a call about the interview. I got the email to take the assessment and just wondering what is expected to happen next.
I know, I have read the discussion about Rotech, but for me right now would be a better option that what I have going.
Thank you

Cult-like mentality of sucking up and lies
We have pathological liars and distortion at the C1 of leadership at Merck.
It has become a game where sucking up and lies are the prevailing tools for success.

I heard there are many people leaving infrastructure today and next Friday. Crazy that after allthe changes they continue to exit people with many years of knowledge after everything they've been through. I hear the current infra leader is quite a handful
Best thing that happened to me was being part of the original outsourcing...double dipped. Good luck to the good ones that remain. It is a good company

"So much for the "self-sustaining", "escape-velocity" recovery. Again.
After rising at an annualized pace of 4.6% and 5.0% in Q2 and Q3, the final Q4 GDP estimate (a number which will still be revised at least 3-4 times in the coming years), slid more than half to 2.2%, the same as the second estimate from a month ago, and below the consensus Wall Street estimate of 2.4%."

A very early virtual start up pharmaceutical company is looking to add a formulation chemist with experience in manufacturing semi-solids-topicals, and oral liquid dose forms.Experience a must. Initially will only need to work on an ad hoc/ part-time basis. Excellent opportunity for those with an entreprenurial drive who have a stable position with some extra time to join what may evolve into a very substantial opportunity. Military service a plus.

This is tough
Hi Hospirians
Just want to throw out there that this time is tough. When you think about it we had so much going for us, supply at 95+%, launching Biosimilars all over the world, the last qtr of last year was our best ever and I think this qtr will be even better. We now have data to sell with the DDD data, we have pumps to sell, I really think plum 360 is amazing ....shame when all things are going great then we get taken. We are great...not sure Pfizer is that good ? Anyway I love Hospira and hope most of us can get to stay !

No equality there
I could never figure out how Teva or the Area directors made their decisions about people.
I saw people come to the Oncology job under Ben as Sr. Executive or Executive reps and the west director not promoting anyone. The 2 reps in Seattle were pretty awesome.. Who is the manager up there? Are those reps still there? Is Bettina still around? Is Matt S still there ?

Terrible meeting. Clueless managers. It seemed like almost everybody I talked to is looking to jump. The ones who are staying are just trying to ride it out. Heard there's a new crop of old timers with a target on their back. I have to get out of this place. Remicade was the bomb, but we don't even sell that anymore. My docs don't care about Stelara. TNFs are better in joints. If the plan was to move from biotech to bloated big pharma with poor leaders, mission accomplished!

Waste of Time
Last month I interviewed for a non-existent territory. The first thing the mgr said was I was so lucky, so fortunate to be there in a face-to-face interview and we aleady did a background check on you - you came out fine. I called the credit bureaus - not true. BUT we already have well qualified internal candidates who are actually the front runners. WHAT???? Why waste my time? Then I got hauled into another interview with a panel of his reps with attitude and no interview skills. Then....if one of the a plethera of internal candidates get the job at the cancer center woud I want the rural territory? Frankly, NO. I came, prepared and have vast experience for the other academia territory and making more money. Hmm. driving 2 hours to get to my first account - not for me.
HOUSTON - there's a problem.
What is with the arrogance. The base salary was only 130K - for speciality oncology in Texas Med Ctr?? Hope you all got a good 'internal' hire.
I heard I&I was a hell hole but Houston oncology? Surprised. And no promised f/u from HR or mgr. So unprofessional. Glad I only wasted 3 hours and not 3 years there as it appeared none of his tenured reps have ever been promoted.

dermatopathologist looking for advice
I am a dermatopathologist and I am contemplating opening my own dermpath lab. I can't afford to hire a sales rep, so I would have to market myself. I have no sales experience to speak of. I am interested in learning how the dermpath sales reps approach new potential clients. How do you get your foot in the dermatologist' office ? Do you simply cold call a derm office, ask for the office manager, and arrange a lunch or presentation? Thank you.

NO MORE MUPPET CLIPS
I pray that MA not show the compliance muppets again. IF you want to describe what is unethical or out of compliance then all they need do is take their cameras to Louisianna and spend just one day with the Concierge rep. You have to admit how realistic and highly impactful it would be when, at the end, he has to surrender his keys, samples, IPad, etc.

Pete Carr was one of the true amazing reps Santarus has ever seen. He was moved over to Salix. He has left the industry in all. Does anyone know why? This guy was such a classy guy and was so successful. I hate to see great talent leave the industry. Salix just seems to ruin everybody by their negative culture and cheating ways.

Dude at least if your going to be in charge please get out of the old 80s and stop with the stupid dinner programs that no HCP's want to go to and stop with the call metric and dumbass biz plans. Let us do what we do and burden us with all this BS! We have great relationships let us leverage them and grow. You will have one hell of an exodus from the field while we are looking for jobs on company time. I know it is hard to hear and make change but the old pharma plan is not being used anymore with bad access and managed care challenges, come on!

Nasty and condecsending recruiters
I have now dealt with 3 of these Publicis recruiters over the last 4 months. Each one is either nasty, mean, condescending, uniformed or a combination of some or all of these traits. Most unprofessional company I have ever dealt with in my entire professional career. I wish their clients (the people that hire them to get reps) knew how they conducted themselves with candidates.

Mike Pearson and his billions
I suppose you don't become a billionaire by giving away your billions! Why are we surprised to be getting a 2.5 raise for top performance? Valiant cares about the bottom line and increasing share value! According to Forbes Mike owns 1.3billikn dollars worth of Valiant stock. That said, do you really think he's gonna give you a fair and respectful merit increase? Nope, if he gives us more there Is less for him!
Forbes
"Valeant is a Wall Street machine and Pearson is paid like a hedge fund manager. His chief financial officer, Howard Schiller, once ran Goldman Sachs’ investment banking business. Pearson’s compensation scheme was put together by board member Mason Morfit, whose ValueAct Capital Management hedge fund is Valeant’s third-biggest shareholder. “We like that long term alignment and that leveraged compensation for performance,” said hedge fund manager Ackman.

Managed Care Team Major Realignment
What's your take on the massive realignment and downsizing to the managed care senior leadership team today? 3 out of 5 of the senior leadership team severed! ST, CR and PB all let go and a hastily called conference call with less than an hours notice given to all the managed care division to announce the layoffs. Those people are shell shocked. 3 of the 5 area directors cut just like that. The Regional Account directors see the writing on the wall with them going down to only 2 Area Directors for the entire country the Regional managed care directors see what is rolling down on them.
This was one of the best kept lay off secrets of my time at Sunovion.
I guess that means we won't be getting any help in getting better formulary status for Aptiom in the near future.

FYI-Signs You aware Working For A Failing Company
Are You Working for a Failing Company?
by Marc Miller
I have multiple clients who currently work for failing companies.
These companies fall into a variety of industries:
High Technology
Pharmaceutical
Telecommunications
Oil and Gas
Each of them have worked for these companies for many years. Do they see the signs that the businesses are failing?
Well…they see it, but it is easier to bury their head in the sand than to admit they really need to get out!
So, what are the signs?
Repetitive Layoffs, RIF, Resource Action, or Redundancy
I have one client who works for a major pharmaceutical company. The building is starting to look like a cemetery—hardly a living being there. When there are more open desks than filled, that is a sure sign that you are working for a failing business.
How many times have I heard, I made it through the last layoff - I am safe!
No, it is not if you get laid off, but when.
This may well be a sign of a failing company!
Circling of the Wagons
This can typically be seen in upper level management, where the old guard circle the wagons and protect their own. One symptom I have been seeing is bright up and coming women being pushed out by older, more established men. You might call this the return of the “good old boy” network.
This usually happens before a major layoff. Upper management starts to maneuver themselves into prime positions before they screw everyone else.
This may well be a sign of a failing company!
Generous Pension Buyout Offers
I’ve had many clients who have been offered lucrative pension buyout offers within the last six months. They are “take it or leave it” offers, with the requirement that they retire. Most of these clients have been at their companies 30+ years, and are not in a position to retire (with children heading off to college, spouse with health issues, other mitigating factors, etc.).
They tell me, “If I can last just five more years…”
But beware—these offers expire quickly and will never be offered again. I tell them, “They want you gone! Figure out how to make it work!”
Reminds me of 1999, when IBM converted my pension to a cash balance plan and then switched it back for everyone who was over forty years of age. Oh yeah, minus a whole bunch of perks—like health insurance. A former boss of mine said:
They took it away and gave it back, they would never do that again.
IBM stopped funding the pension in 2008. I left in 2000 with a lump sum pension payout. Best financial move I ever made!
This may well be a sign of a failing company!
Management Bad Behavior
Have you seen bullying behavior?
Have your manager’s e-mails become more and more terse?
Do you feel like you are being shouted at in e-mails?
These are all signs of stress in the workplace. When a business is failing and in a tailspin, there is more work to be done by the few that are left. Stress levels increase exponentially. This brings out the worst behavior.
This may well be a sign of a failing company!
Does any of this sound familiar? If so, you may be working for a failing company.
It may be time to move on in your career!

Okay, so I know we only have a few more months to sell Welchol, but I'm kind of new to it. I have a bunch of HCPs who tell me they'd write Welchol if it weren't six pills. I've tried everything training said would work (didn't), so now I need some advice. Anyone have some successful objection handlers? Please, serious replies only, thanks!

Have people really considered what they are interviewing for?
Abilify Maintenna currently has 1.5% marketshare in the LAI marketplace. JNJ has eaten Otsuka's lunch since day one. MD's never believed in Abilify for schizophrenia and they still don't. Once again everyone is clammering to interview for a job in which the company has never commercialized a product, they have piss poor management and marketing not to mention zero ability to track these prescriptions to these specialty pharmacies. Folks this is a feast or phamon job, either get it or get out. All of this while JNJ is bringing their longer acting market leader to market. Good luck, do your research before you decide to jump. Could be the shortest experience of your life for many reasons.

Severance Pay and Taxes
Simple Question, or maybe not, but HR hasn't rung back and they're swamped so I thought I'D ask the best and brightest...
lump sum pay at end of 2.5 months (june 4th) how much in taxes will be applied?
-38% like bonus pay?
-Less? Like 1099 pay?
And what about taxes applied to vacation payout?
I'm sure it varies by state but is there a round about number?

McDonalds quitting antibiotic laden chicken
uh-oh....
McChicken is changing.
The fast food company McDonald’s announced a new menu sourcing initiative Wednesday for its approximate 14,000 restaurants across the U.S. Only chicken that is free of antibiotics that are used in humans will be allowed in stores.
McDonald’s said it also plans to start offering customers jugs of low-fat white milk and fat-free chocolate milk from cows that have not been treated with the artificial growth hormone rBST.
"Our customers want food that they feel great about eating — all the way from the farm to the restaurant — and these moves take a step toward better delivering on those expectations," McDonald's U.S President Mike Andres said in a news release.
McDonalds said its working closely with farms to ensure all their chicken is free of antibiotics used in human medicine. Farmers, who supply the chains with chicken, will still be allowed to continue using ionophores, a type of antibiotic not used in humans that helps keep chickens healthy.
The Center for Food and Safety, which applauded McDonald’s menu sourcing changes, said antibiotic resistant bacteria has been pegged as one of top five health threats facing the nation.

Pay is a shell game
Last year they announced increased bonus potential and in return received tepid applause because they didn't realize the new potential is still BELOW industry standards. AND, adding insult to injury, it appears they are paying for those bonus increases with a lack of merit pay raises. Just a BS shell game.

Actavis v. Forest Pay
It's pretty obvious that what happened on Thursday was nothing more than a "pay scale" adjustment by dumping a lot of higher Actavis salaries. I'm sure the "average" salary is now much more in line with the Forest pay scale. It's no secret they're one of the worst paying pharma companies and that hasn't changed.

Just one more thing left until Brent leaves - the sale to Pfizer!!!
That will be the swan song. If you didn't get out one way or the other BT now, better get going. BS will sell its ot Pfizer and they will take the products and the overseas domicile. Not the people.
Choose your own adventure - roll the dice and stay or go to another gig, but that's the way this is going.
Forest is dead. Actavis is dead. Soon the Allegran people will be blindsided by this.
In the end, it will all be Pfizer.

Forest rep truthful advice to Allergan
Former legacy Forest here, I was let go after 4 years one trip to P-Club, 200 shares of stock, and Forest severance package. BS is about that $$$. I was able to ear hustle a conversation at last launch He said, "Anybody can be sold."
That being said many of you already know the advice I'm going to give but for those Allergan, Actavis, and new Forest reps here it is.
IF YOU HAVE A FOREST MANAGER!!
1. Kiss you DM's ass, thats how they became a DM.
2. Be first to role play in POA, even if your not good its shows DM's you have potential to kiss ass.
3. Be first to send the team a synopsis last quick click, another form of teachers pet.
4. On ride alongs take DM on a "milk run" only doctors that will sign and let you spew out "Dr. for the next five patients will you write? Dr. will you commit for the next 5 patients?
Many doctors hate that but they know your on a dog and pony show.
4. Be first to send out "Ra, Ra" cheerleading emails, but be careful not to leave messaging.
5. Beware of reps that don't have prior pharma they will be the first ones to snitch on you,
prior to pharma they had a crappy job and will do anything to keep it.
6. 55 or more calls per week. 11 to 12 calls per day 7 to 8 sample calls. Spread your day out they will not complain if you have 49 to 52 by days end Thursday and you make 5 spread out calls on Friday just be sure last signature is at 3:45.
7. Go out on a occasional Saturday if an office is open YUP I SAID IT!! Its another form of kiss ass.
8. Bad weather make 1 to 3 calls close to your house then tell DM weather too bad to continue
They will brag to their fellow DM that they have a good team player.
Thats all I can think of for know.
GOOD LUCK and I hope all those still employed leave on their own terms!

You come on here and bitch about how shitty things are, and then don't want a severence and a fresh start? I know some really do, but I am amazed at the number of people who say, "Great! Cut me!" when it's announced, but become scared shitless as the day arrives?
I've seen a lot of, "so-and-so is safe!"
"I'm safe!"
But you said you wanted a package a month ago? How are you "safe"?
Safe in knowing your work life is still miserable?
OR
You were talking big all along and really are scared of the big bad world.

Daiichi Sankyo Signs Agreement With AstraZeneca To Co-Commercialize MOVANTIK In The US
PARSIPPANY, N.J., March 19, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Daiichi Sankyo, Inc. today announced a co-commercialization agreement with AstraZeneca for MOVANTIK™ (naloxegol) in the US, in line with the Daiichi Sankyo strategy to expand its US portfolio through strategic alliances, in addition to internal R&D and acquisitions. MOVANTIK is a first-in-class, once-daily, oral, peripherally-acting mu-opioid receptor antagonist (PAMORA) for the treatment of opioid-induced constipation (OIC) in adults with chronic non-cancer pain.
MOVANTIK was approved by the US Food and Drug Administration in September 2014. It was descheduled by the US Drug Enforcement Administration in January 2015 and is no longer labelled as a controlled substance. The launch of MOVANTIK in the US is planned for early April 2015.
Under the terms of the agreement, Daiichi Sankyo, Inc. will pay a $200 million up-front fee and subsequent sales-related payments of up to $625 million. AstraZeneca will be responsible for manufacturing, will book all sales and will make sales-related commission payments to Daiichi Sankyo, Inc. Both companies will be jointly responsible for commercial activities.
Ken Keller, President, US Commercial, Daiichi Sankyo, Inc., said: "We are proud to bring our proven primary care and specialty expertise to this collaboration with AstraZeneca. MOVANTIK represents an opportunity to help patients manage one of the most common conditions arising from widely used pain medications, as well as an opportunity to continue to build the Daiichi Sankyo US portfolio of medicines in this therapeutic area."
Paul Hudson, President, AstraZeneca US and Executive Vice President, North America said: "We are delighted to collaborate with Daiichi Sankyo to expand our commercialization efforts in the US in order to get this important medicine to the large number of patients suffering with opioid-induced constipation. Our agreement reflects our evolving business model by creating value from our portfolio through externalization activity.
