ATHENS, GA SPECIALTY POSITION







Oh, and this person either quit because they were lucky enough to find another job (doubtful) or they were put on a PIP and fired. Half of Astellas is on a PIP, did you know that? Yes@@@@@@@@@@@@@@. I had two friends put on PIPs at GSK (our partner for Vesicare) for no reason. One was a flex time- got moved to a territory with a flex time on maternitiy leave, so she took the fall trying to raise a new territory on flex time by herself. Has always been highly ranked. the other highly ranked, docs loved him, and he got fired with his PIP. But Astellas is doing the same. So it is 50 50. Either this person couldn't stand working for the corrupt RP and NA, as they have the highest turnover in the COUNTRY, or they got a PIP. Think about it. They are evil.
 






read all threads about GA. Managers corrupt- Regional Manager will make your life hell. He is most talked about ABD on here that he has to constantly erase bad threads. You must be desperate to come here. It is a mini Pfizer, and they really, really do not care about you. I am only here because there is no where else to go now. Look at any threads about NC or GA and that is your ABD. It is not good at all. Take only if necessary! Oh, and RP will be your DM if it is GA. He appears so nice and a good ole boy. He is the right hand man of NA, your ABD. This position keeps turning over. All Georgia and NC keep turning over, even in this economy. RP is a backstabber big time, and so is the charming NA. Dont' do it! I don't even work for them. I was friends with them. I found out their true nature later on after being with Astellas 5 years. If you have other opportunities take it. You will go to training, hate your life, quit and or try desperately to find another gig. Trust me.

You have no idea what you are talking about! There is a new RSM in the Georgia area and I imagine all his people love him.

This position does not "constantly turn over". The guy that left had been there for about 7 years (and had been successful). KS is the manager, not RP. Both of them are good guys. Get a grip.
 






OP here. Thanks for the "more sane" replies. Could you provide the current RSM's name and email address. I really appreciate it as I am very interested in pursuing this opportunity. I'm a longtime, successful (yet downsized) rep seeking a good opportunity. Thanks so much for your help!!
 






I am the "insane" post I suppose. Hmmmm. Look at the posts and you will see. If there is a new RSM, I did not know. That will be much better. I don't work this area, but know the peeps. So, brown noser or as OP put it, "sane person" whatever. I tried to help you OP. I have been to management training so I know alot more than the "sane" posters.

Good luck. Cards fall where they may!

Were you drunk when you wrote this or just plain stupid? I guess that management training didn't go too well for you!

Sane poster here...management training as well. KS is a good guy. I've know all of his reps and they really like him. AL left the territory on good terms. They would take him back in a second, so no one was forced out.

Did you go through management training with Astellas? As far as I know, they just started that program last year and have had only one class go through.
 






First I don't drink. Second, yes I was in the class you speak of. These managers need to get off the board. Good luck to you interviewee. Tried to warn you. Read all the posts about corrupt management and it is very true. I am here because I have a family to feed. The only reason I am here.

I'm willing to bet you weren't in that class, but if you were, you're really leaving yourself open to ID. Several out of that class have been promoted already, so that only leaves a few who haven't (and only one of them seems to be this bitter). Hmmm?
 












actually in the class. promoted. sorry keep trying. I know soooo much more than you A very small class, but enough to where you still have to guess who I am!!!!! That is why I love CP!

Well, if you're a manager, then your either DE, KS, LN, or SS. Those are the only 4 promoted to RSM roles. If you were promoted but not to an RSM, then you're either MB or KB. Now, none of these folks is as bitter as you, so I'm sticking with "NOT PROMOTED".
 












Well, know it all, you are incorrect, you left off some texas reps on your little list

Actually I didn't. SS was just promoted (a few weeks ago). I only listed those that have been promoted, Slappy, so get someone to read the posts for you prior to replying this time. Oh, there's one other guy in TX that works in training, TL. Hasn't been promoted yet, but is a solid guy. You're not him. Want me to list all the participants? :)
