I have worked for Biosurgery for many years and have truly enjoyed the "family" atmosphere as well as the money. The products are superier to Baxter's hands down. It's definitely been a tough year with product supply but I challenge anyone who doesnt think this a great company to go somewhere else and see how great you have it. J&J is one of the best companies to work for with excellent benefits as well as products, good luck finding a company like this and ESPECIALLY Biosurgery. Regardless of recalls, which every company has, there are many ways to hit your number and making excuses for the person in charge is just an EXCUSE.
How is the Chicago territory?
Oh, Evicel is never pushed off label. It is always used in Bariatric procedures on suture lines with no bleeding, graft adherence, etc. I love this board and all of the law firm banners asking about off-label usage and bogus claims. Come on whistle blowers! Lets take down the 800lb gorilla.
To all Baxter reps, the best way to beat Surgiflo is to have your loyal Scrub Techs and surgeons prep the product like they would prep floseal. Mix it back and forth 10 to 15 times. it fluffs the product up and it will float. so basically, everyone waited 1 1/2 years for a product that is easy to defeat and used off label anywhere that they can push it
Sounds like every j&j manger I've ever had. I've had 3 different ones. Intimidate, bully and put downs are what they teach in J&J manager school. It works so well. (Sarcasm)
You mean bomb the pricing like ETHICON biosurgery did for years? Lets see, you hold the customer hostage with surgicel, you come out with a wannabe product in Surgiflo, and you now change. Purse in how to spray evicel due to several deaths that have occurred. Maybe you guys should stay out of the OR all togetherFluffs the product up and it will float? Jesus. What happens to the patient? Beat surgiflo outside of the OR, not in it.

Don't worry, everything out there says you will be part of the next consolidation and you will ALL be out very soon. Look at the Gynacare folks. It shows your future
To the Baxter rep that keeps replying to their own quotes:
You and your co-workers are not the issue. You all speak of "magic granules" and "spurting" and think you sound informed. Sounds great to Material Managers, makes you look clueless in the OR. Also, please try the fluff method listed above, it'll be a joy to tell the hospital you are advising staff on how to use another company's product incorrectly. The neuro business you seem very passionate/concerned about it simply at the direction of the hospitals to convert from their "OFF LABEL" Tisseel use, so get over yourself. The air embolism warning is for all "fibrin sealants" ie Evicel, Tisseel, Artiss, Viagel, so keep up that talk track as well, and then wonder why you lose the business.
Again, the reason people are leaving this place is certainly not because Baxter is stocked with studs, and the business to too hard to take. The fact is, the business is very easy to take......when we have product.
The constant supply issues and terrible culture are the reasons people are leaving.
Strange, I hear there was a death in Texas that the hospital is blaming on Evicel. Are you stil pushing CO2? You could have owned the market but the people that lead biosurgery got too greedy
Strange, you must of heard that two years ago when it happened. You should really add this to your same old s@#! sales pitch and you'll have a real winner.
Isn't he the guy that went into sales learning? I heard he was a complete ass.
