EPBU East Regional Meeting







What a joke. So many unprofessional reps. Foul language, inappropriately dressed, and lack of self control when drinking . Very embarrassing. Seemed like a bunch of washed up pharma reps. Not the caliber that started on the contract.
 












Totally disagree. It was a great meeting and really energizing. Merck leadership really conveyed appreciation for ePbu performance.

West region rep here, glad to hear that. Morale has been kind of low in our district and neighboring districts. Did not know what to expect next week. Looking forward to it.
 






I would agree that some were inappropriately dressed but overall the meeting was great and the presenters were great and very interested in energizing us! Overall the EPBU is very professional you will always have a few bad eggs.
 
















































Excellent venue. Great restaurant choices. Highest Touchpoint and Merck management took time to come to this meeting and acknowledge success of this team.
Most successful Publicis contract.
They wouldn't spend this kind of money on CSO unless they ated to make us feel part of future plan.

As for inappropriate. Been to manufacturer meeting that were more like frat parties, people arrested, passed out on lawns, not getting up next day. In comparison this as like Sunday School.

Also, when you pay for our own drinks, you tend to drink less or not at all.

I hope West meeting goes as well.
 






I think it went very well. Lots of eye candy MILFs - just for that, it was well worth the 3 days, let alone the dinner venues, district team-building activities, etc. This should happen more often.

I just wish we would get some type of car allowance. I get they pay mileage. But not wear and tear. So by the time you pay your car payment and insurance from your part time pay check your broke again. Full time reps get 600 a month for car allowance. Even if they gave us 200 a month. Come on Merck!
