Salix 2021 is a laughable joke. I remember when JT and Plesha were running the show. Carolyn was our CEO and everything we got was the absolute best. Top shelf booze and food at every meeting. Gifts in our rooms every night. PClub winners got an open tab everywhere we went and a $7,500 prepaid Visa for whatever we wanted. Salix back then was Dom Perignon and surf and turf. Salix 2021 is lousy bonus money, bottom of the barrel cars, Pabst Blue Ribbon and leftover rice at Mango’s.
Unfortunately this post is pretty spot on.
Dont forget , we did get a pair of B&L sunglasses at a NSM several years ago.... I think that was the last NSM “gift” that we have received, sad.... but JTH doesnt give a crap, he will just hire newbies that think that he is great. We are Magnifica!! lol
Those glasses were a joke. They were B&L knockoffs of their own Ray Ban brand. Cheap and useless. My kids didn’t even want them. Pre ValMart PClub was a “sky’s the limit” event. You could do any activity and eat and drink whatever you wanted. All paid for by Salix. Fast forward to my last Salix PClub. We had a cheap per diem allowance for meals and drinks that forced us to pay out of pocket a lot of the time. Silver lining alert: we did get to watch our VP of sales waddle around the pool with a trash bag filled with ice and Coors Light cans while he hollered vulgar, unfunny comments. That was inspiring.
Just left for Bristol Myers. Along with a bunch of others. Adios Salix.
Those BMS offers are FAT! People are getting more than $160,000 base and sweet stock and bonus. That is serious. If you aren’t looking outside Salix you need to rethink.
Unfortunately there arent many other sweetheart deals like this out there looking for GI reps. The last one like this was Synergy, it turned out OK for some , not so well for others.
Takeda is paying huge for their GI specialty reps. Entivyo (?) for IBD. Small sales force in the infusion biologic space. You can look to some of the smaller startups for better pay and huge stock awards. The BMS opportunity is t the only thing out there.
Takeda is a dumpster fire. It may actually be worse than here. At least we arent having layoffs...
I left Salix right before COVID and I hate that I stayed so many years. Please people respect yourself and your families. Don’t work for low pay and high pressure when there are so many other companies out there that start reps out at $130k base and often go up to $175k base. Do not believe the way you are being treated here is ok. I had my head in the sand for years not realizing how much other companies pay.

Pharmaceutical sales representatives/managers are not exceptionally talented people. Every once in a while you might find an individual in the pharma sales realm that is talented. Most, if not every person here should be grateful to be making more than 50k per year. Paying you 50k per year is the high end of what your services are worth. The truth can be a bitch.

See ya in a year when your happenstance UC indication that cost 86k fails miserably and you come crawling back to this poop show
