Salary Question

I have almost 20 years in psych and was making $112. Do you think they will go to $120 or $125 ? (Latuda position) . Tahnks

 

All depends on what you bring to the table and how badly hiring mgr wants you. Remember there are lots of talented reps with solid exp making much less than you and could do just as well as you in the position.

 

Thank you for your response. So do you know of many who received $120 or $125K?

 

Yes. If you fall outside of the salary range parameters, the manger would need to get approval, but I don't think that would be necessary. But, as the previous poster suggested, it's only if they want you bad enough. Also, I noticed you said "I was", not "am", making $112K. If you're currently unemployed, you are currently making $0, so you don't have much ground to stand on if you're looking for a 10% bump from what you used to make.

 

Let me check the rep salary spreadsheet on the company website. That info is very easy to get. I know Steve Quintiles had 12 years experience and he was making $117K . That is great money for the Panhandle of Oklahoma . Hope that helps

 

Many Applicants would jump at job for 75-80k offer with no questions asked. This is the challenge for the OP. Companies realize they can pay 30k less and get someone just as good.

 

True, but the manager will want the best person for the job, regardless of the salary... Not the one they can get for the cheapest. I was saying that if the OP is the best candidate, they'll get an offer. But if the he or she is currently unemployed, they likely won't get a 10% bump from what they used to make unless it falls into the range they would offer anyway.

 

I'm sorry--Yes...good question. I should have said I am currently employed and making $112. Thanks

 

If you get an offer, no way it's 10% bump. Maybe 2-3% but you will have to sell mgr that you're 30k better than your competition for the job. Lots of qualified. Reps making 75-80k out there.

 

I don't know a single rep in the Latuda sales team that is making under $110K. Many are making much more than that.

 

What territory are you interviewing for? I know in some territory they want to pay less.

 

You are so wrong. Not everyone is making $110.

 

Median avg base is mid 80s

 

This is absolute bullshit. Median is closer to 100 and the max a rep can make is 130k.

 

Agreed amigo. However, everyone at this rat hole is doomed. This company just ain't gonna survive. Will join the history books with companies like Leaderle, RPR, Upjohn, Elan, etc. At least those companies got bought, we could garage sale things off, especially Latuda. No chance we would get bought or merge. Its over really soon, just hope those at the top leave us some crumbs. Fortune cookie say "wee got problem, pweese help us".

 

Struck a chord with ya. The truth hurts. 85k is median avg. haha

 

Not true. I am a Latuda rep making 134K. Trolls no like facts, facts confuse trolls! Hope that helps

 

Read the post next time a$$ brain before replying. We're talking median base pay not delusional outliners posted anonymously.

 

Sorry ass breadth, but the $134K comment was a direct and factual response to the person saying no rep makes more that $130k. Facts, once again confuse troll, troll no like facts! Hope that helps and you can keep the stool sample.

 

And by the way, WTF is an "outliner"? Idiot!
