    "Now that the oncology division has a salary cap of $170,000 - Do you think that is discrimination for the rest of the sales force since our S 2 group has a salary cap of $127,000. We have a similar job role and responsibility! I guess it will be just another discrimination lawsuit for MERCK."

    So, rep salary at Merck for Onc goes up to $170,000. Close to AZ's?

    That is a lot of money for people who rarely see more than two Oncologists face to face in a week. They deliver free food and wander hallways for a bump and greet just like the rest of us.

    Absolutely! Well salaries will stabilize when the displaced neuro reps are filtered in after that downsizing. At one point AZ Onc was 500 strong.

    Az neuro could get in base of low 100's, even with bonus would come nowhere close to merck. Even AZ oncology maybe 110+ base, but bonuses wouldn't get to 170, generally speaking.

    They make way more than $110 for a tenured onc rep that is a CL 5!!!

    Left AZ Oncology seven years ago. Was CL 4 with $114,000 base and $36k bonus at plan.

    Anyone still in this industry knows that the entire sales force design is as outdated as a cassette tape player. You could get high school grads to do this job and pay them $12 per hour and have the same impact.

    If you want to make bank, jump from AZ ASAP. They pay a fraction of what other top Oncology companies pay.

    BTW, who's the AZ ONC brunette chic in the Nashville, TN area?

    That is because AZ is not and never has been a top oncology company. Ask any physician to name the top 3 Oncology companies and AZ will never be mentioned.

    Remember this. There are no products - real products - until 2019 - that is a LONG way away to carry all the flotsam and jetsam. And no one can even grow that brand. You have less access than the diabetes team to ends. you are all toast - get ready to spend your career catching sigs and delivering lunch just like me
