<p>[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 4221944"]I worked there a few years ago and it has gotten worse and worse. they could not keep reps around before when they offered base and commission (and car) but because of the economy they are 100% commission now. There is a reason for that. They can not afford the bells and whistles because they are in trouble. Please take a careful look at the products they offer before taking a job here because you will learn that the competition is fierce. They are in a market where their main product has literally 100's of competitors that keep re-branding to make a buck.

If that is all you want or need, then go for it. Keep your resume updated and use it as a stepping stone. Be forewarned though that if you want a job in medical sales, then do not enter the pharma industry at all as medical device companies and surgical sales companies highly frown upon this type of job and company. </p><p><br /></p><p>It is hard to find jobs right now so this may be better then nothing at all but it is not a long term position (In my opinion). Unlike other larger pharma companies, this company does not attempt to create its own products. It obtains its pipeline from seeking out other companies trying to market their new drugs. All major new and "exciting" drugs are being created by the actual companies that plan to sell them (Novartis, Bristol, merck, etc) therefore the odds of centrix ever getting a product that is different or can generate some money is very unlikely. This is why a long term opportunity to make money here is such a long shot. </p><p><br /></p><p>Good luck in whatever you decide to do![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
