Yes, I am embarrassed to work here. Yes, I am looking for another job.
It is embarrassing to explain to customers that the samples they signed for two weeks ago are not going to arrive.
It is embarrassing that the Company hired a Sales Ops guy that was RECENTLY involved in a kickback scandal.
It is embarrassing to be listening in on the Town Hall and have TN tried to explain that cutting out samples was not a "financial decision". His email explained the lack of ROI, so how is it not a financial decision? TN should be embarrassed that he doesn't understand how SAMPLES really work within a physician setting (access, side effects, delayed Opko Connect process, no Foundation money). He doesn't seem to realize that mid-levels and other physicians in the office sign for samples for the main prescriber. The top prescribers are "friends" and prescribe the drug for "other reasons". How stupid are you? Your lack of NSD experience is obvious. All you know is marketing. You do not know anything about a HUB or you would have never hired MB much less kept her around this long. The hub is a financial burden and she is unpleasant. Until two weeks ago, the weekly report didn't track how many prescriptions died at OC due to non-coverage. He knows noting about Managed Care or the lies that HF tells the team every week. Patients and physicians do not consider "coverage" a copayment over $50.00. Would you pay over $50.00 for a drug that you didn't know would work and took 3 weeks to get through OC? What do the NAMs do everyday? They aren't taking meetings everyday with Medicare accounts or Commercial accounts. What about all of the vacant MSLs spots? It is embarrassing that Opko can't hire MSLs to handle the occasional inquiry regarding Rayaldee. Dr. Ashfaq and Dr. Bishop to the rescue? What happens when they convince a physician to prescribe the drug and there isn't any coverage, samples or Foundation money? It pisses off the physician. I don't think there is much ROI in that situation. Opko doesn't contribute to the Foundation. What happens when big pharma doesn't contribute to the Foundation in the first quarter?
It is embarrassing that you can't figure out a decent compensation plan for the reps. and shafted the Home Office people on their bonus. How is it HQ's fault that THERE ISN'T ANY REIMBURSEMENT?
How long do you think the new hires will stay around when everything you have told them is a lie?
Reimbursement issues are the reason we are failing .
