Depending on your manager, you will have little to no oversight. Which is a plus. Long term stability does not exist at this company anymore. Big minus.

If you are unemployed, take the job.

I agree with previous post. If your unemployed take it, otherwise find something else. On second thought, unemployment might be a better option.

-> late commission checks

-> cancellation or downward modification of compensation plan with no advance notice to sales reps

-> quarterly layoffs


What's NOT to love? Take the job! Duh.

Yes. Best company in pharma. You will not regret your 3 month career with The Medco!

It really comes down to the type of culture that you believe that you will thrive in. There are some wonderful people in this organization. The potential in the pipeline is immense. However, the cold dark truth is that there is an undercurrent in the organizations culture that breeds malicious self-serving approaches to success. There is a large disconnect between the reality of market dynamically and realistic sales forecasting..with small moments of sanity interspersed that provide hope that all is not last.
Manic is the one word that describes it best. No ill intent...just one anecdotal...opinion.

If you know what good feels like..there will be red flags..don't ignore them. Trust your gut.

I just saw an Angiomax opening. Is this a good opportunity? How much does the company car cost per month? And how much cell phone do you reimburse? Also, how many days does the manager ride with you? And do you do role plays at the initial training? And how much can I spend on breakfast at the initial Angiomax training? Also, is there an opportunity to advance to manager of Ionysis? Im super excited to break into pharma sales!!!

If you are desperate otherwise a really bad career move. The industry questions why one would choose to work here given its history and poor leadership.
