BI reps' biggest opponent

Anonymous

Guest
The main threat to the people at BI isn't a competitor, it's the compliance team and home office. Watch your butts out there. Three RD's; 1 fired, 1 reassigned, and one "suddenly retired"? Does the close timing of all of these happenings coinciding with a POA meeting remind anyone else of what happened in the Northwest right after a POA meeting a couple of years back?

Big Brother is watching you, and no matter how many years you've been here, what positions you've held, or how much $$$ you have made for BI, the slightest issue will cost you everything.

BI has always been overly cautious with compliance, and the consequences have gotten vastly more severe. Be very careful out there; one e-mail, VM, or powerpoint slide could bring in your pink slip.

I agree but one of those recent RDs deserves everything coming his way. I don't leave a paper trail at all. I'm amazed at the reps who continue to send out a ton of emails or VMs these days. If it's not in writing, it didn't happen.
 








The original poster is correct for the most part. The second has been after that RD for months and now feels justified even though they have no knowledge of the situation or person they constantly attrack.

The HR department is incompetent and has been for a number of years. these were all castoffs from other organizations and are led by a complete idiot. Yes, you do need to watch your backs. They have successfully cultivated a sales force that takes no chances whatsoever and a management team that will not take any action for fear of reprisals. The previous VP used the term managerial courage, but that is fleeting quickly.

What did they do? Sexually harass??
 












I'm starting to think our biggest opponent is the company not responding very publicly to all these BS pradaxa law suits to instill some confidence in our customers.

If you know how legal procedures work, you would understand that any comment made by BI opens them up to legal ramifications in a process called 'discovery'. You can wiki it. It's best to not say anything, why throw them any bread since their cases are already known to be without merit. Really, suing over an anticoagulant causing bleeding, seriously, a bunch of pirates looking for booty. Most doc's will get it, the ones that won't probably aren't ones willing to write a better product other than warfarin anyway.

Agreed. Ten people to screw in a lightbulb. It's been seen January and we have nothing! Gives us something to give/show our customers.

What the lawyers are looking for is someone who has an event in an off label use. That's bleeding you can sue for.
