Go ahead and leave...you're EASILY replaceable. There are lots of experienced, capable reps out there that are more motivated to sell than you. You're not anywhere as valuable as you see yourself.

Don't forget to let us know how your next job works out.

"pay us what we are worth"? Are you daring him to cut our pay by 75%. Ian, pay OP no mind. Please keep paying us the crazy money, just to deliver sandwiches and give 10 second sound bites.

Then please answer this question- "Why do all of you BioOn ass clowns act like you're the shit? I work in Xolair and applied for a COS position. I was told that my experiences in Xolair could not translate into BioOnc. Are you freakin kidding me? Selling Xolair is ten times tougher than selling Herceptin or Avastin. You've just exposed yourself as the true shit bags you are, so stop trying to act so important."

You are correct; Like 99% of all Bio Onc Reps or oncology reps in other companies, I startyed my career selling something other than Oncology drugs. I sold Viagra, before I sold Pegasys, before I began selling Avastin. There is very little difference (jobs were 95% the same), except in BioOnc, our access in the docs office is absolutely horrendous.

You must understand, that most of my fellow Oncology reps believe that they are "the shit" because our drugs are sooooo expense, hence "we make more money for the company". We actually attached the price of the drug, to our own self worth. The fact is, like all drug reps, we dont sell a damn thing. I have never ever convinced a doctor to sign a contract or to write a check, never. Like you, I serve 3-5 lunches per week,but a rarely actually speak to my docs. Indeed, Avastin has been around for years, and with all of the Genetech reps calling on the same accounts, and all of the other armies of oncology reps oncologists have the documented lowest drug rep access of all docs.

Thats right, I collect a salary of 153,000/year Plus bonus, car etc, and like most oncology reps, I rarely get even 30 seconds to speak to a doc. Please Ian dont pay me what Im worth, please; I really need the money.

By the way, even the head of training will tell you that ANY rep can be trained to be a productive and good bioonc rep in 6 months, ANY REP. This is no different than any other sales force. Oh, I forgot the say, most of my BioOnc brethren actually think they areOncoloGISTS, and not Oncolgy Reps. They actually think THEY are saving and extending lives.

A Hepatitis rep chiming in here. Apparently having experience selling a biologic (Pegasys), injectable (pegasys), immunomodulator (pegasys), being well versed in hematologic parameters due to (pegasys), selling against competition and being no better or no worse a rep than anyone in BioOnc doesn't mean crap here. I'm happy for those colleagues who transitioned over to the various BioOnc franchises over the past year, especially those without prior onc experience. The question is, how can one hiring manager be open minded and receptive to "new blood" to augment their team and the next say that he needs someone with BioOnc experience?

I say let all those wanting to go to Gilead to leave including the managers who think they are better than their peers in other franchises and open up opportunities to those who appreciate where we work and the opportunity to move into BioOnc. The salaries in this industry are getting out of hand for "selling" any drug so if you think you're so good, keep chasing the big money. Some of us are satisfied with what we earn and who we work for.

We are sorry that your attempt to become a shit bag was unsuccessful.
