I'm currrently on the Quintiles contract and I am in my late 50's. When I went through training (two years ago), there were several reps my age and older in the class. There were at least two that were over 60.

That was then- this is now.

Wrong again, I came to Q at 50, they have been nothing but generous, they allow you to start a new career path and Janssen, in my experience, has been exactly the same. It's about energy and attitude not age.

Thanks HR department for the post!

Some folks are getting hired...but not all.

This company is pure, unadulterated excrement, produced by the management orifices who populate it.

Don't plan on getting a J&J job if you're older, or more expensive, or if a manager somewhere has a buddy, or some other manager requests a "favor."

If you want a friend at work, volunteer at an animal rescue organization. You won't find any friends at J&J, not now, not ever.

True. Trust no one here.

Don't want to? then don't inteview..simple. Contract changes will not be made. Q will be retained. why wouldn't u want to flip?

DO THE MATH!

Scenario: You have a relatively new car. Janssen offers you a 5% bump in pay, but they don't mention that you will be docked $100/mo for "personal use of the fleet vehicle."

You lose the mileage reimbursement, of course.

You pay SS, Medicare, and Fed/State income tax on that 5% bump, at the highest marginal rates. You net MAYBE 55% of it, minus $1200 for the car.

If you keep your personal car from before, it is depreciating (or you're making payments on it) every month.

Bottom line: The only thing you're getting is eventually vested in the pension. That's assuming the diabetes drug gets approved and Obamacare doesn't gut this industry, taking your job away in a year or three.

This is NOT a clear cut slam dunk.
