Are they going to fix base salaries?

I have been with Allergan for 4 years and I make 59K. Every other company is offering 85k and higher. Allergan is behind the times with pay and they are churning and burning through young, measly reps who don't know any better. Add micromanaging to the mix and managers who have not been in the top 50% themselves and you have a sad life. They know it all yet they keep losing their reps with bullying backstabbing and the practice of running off reps. They weren't treated this way yet they continue to junior high it up with mean girl tactics. We can't wait to watch them fall. Karma is a bigger bitch than our managers.

I entered the industry 20 years ago starting at a 62K base. Make more than double on base now. Allergan is way behind the times

This is dead on. I can’t imagine what they waste on training all of these kids who are “disposable”. Pay good reps more, it would probably be cheaper.

Everyone knows that our salaries are WAY below what other companies pay — even much smaller companies.

In the global town hall following the engagement survey results they said that they would address the salary problem.

Rumors are starting to circulate that they are going to do something about this early next year. I’m thinking about leaving the company in the next 2 months but if they were TRULY going to fix the salary problem I might stay.

Does anybody know anything?

I didn't realize they were broken
