Amgen ISS

they pay terribly as compared to other biotech. why are so many leaving and getting 20 to 30 k to move on?

think critically. People are fleeing. 130 base here? even with years of experience. others at other companies 160 base minimum.
No one forced you to agree to your offer. If you accepted it, that is on you.
 
































work horse for Aimovig? Not so much HAHA

They sell nothing (Aimovig) and know the NuBu reps are forced to do it all. They don't mention it and they don't sample it. They should get no payout on it!

That would be because of their managers, at least for the good reps. Let’s be honest there are shit reps in every BU and one bad one can ruin the bunch, BUT I know that when I was ISS my manager literally told me to not talk about Aimovig or Repatha and to only push Otezla. I would get chewed out if he heard me talking about the other drugs because “we have specialty reps to help push those, get otezla scripts…” it pissed me off so much because it showed it wasn’t about being a good sales rep as a whole for all the products I sell but only about making up for Amgens shit decision to to buy a drug that busted! I jumped from that BU because of management pushing us to not sell all the products but just one! It’s stupid. Sure there are shitty ISS reps, but the managers are shitty, at least in our region because of our regional saying only push otezla and pushing it down on the reps!

Well you are one of the better reps. Most of them couldn't care and loved the fact their DSM's told them to not sell Aimovig. I give you a lot of credit attempting to sell the whole portfolio. Most never breathed the word even if time permitted. They know NOTHING about the product as they never talk about it nor do they care. They STILL are getting paid on it and it's just wrong

I will agree with that! It’s absurd that so many just don’t sell what they need to sell! It’s like they were given the chance to be lazy and took it but truly, all of my old Aimovig and Repatha reps are some of my best recommendations because they knew I busted my ass.

I'm sure you were the fastest caterer in the history of Amgen!

Stop being a jerk. It appears as if that poster is a good rep and tries to sell the whole portfolio. I'm not that poster, but I will defend and APPLAUD his/her comments!

ISS should not be paid 1% if they don't sell it. Not right! And 99% don't mention it. FACT
