Thinking of a career change. I wanted to see from insiders what they think of the company, the leadership, the pipeline....chances for promotion, overall corporate finances, etc. I heard about the successor to synagis not getting FDA approval...that had to be a costly blow.
Knowing what you know about the company, if you were an outisder, would you sign on right now?

Please do not board a sinking ship... my prediction is that the rest of the sales force will be gone next year along with FRMs (why do they need them when it will be years if ever that any new drug is launched?)
They let go many of their best CMMs and I am sure they must be thanking their lucky stars that they got severance packages and the opportunity to go to a better company
Sales this year will be in the toilet! Ha and I guess they really did not need the CMMs - Joke will be on Medi

You are right about that! Nice severance package and a great new company. And as far as the BSS doing my old job - they aren't. They aren't even registered at the hospitals and none of my friends have seen them... I'm talking key opinion leaders. As predicted the BSS just told the manager that the hospitals were closed to reps, that they needed an appointment to see anyone and they couldn't get one. Good luck getting the BSS to rally the medical leadership when no one even knows them. Wait until the new guidelines come out... It will be the end of the BSS. MedImmune is a sinking ship. Don't be the last rat off the boat.

alleged sinking ship appears to have a hell of a pipeline,
also, significant infrastructure investments signal that medi will be around awhile. Congrats on your sev and new gig.

Ha! Ten years ago I was told we would be launching one new drug every year for the next five years. Then I heard the same thing pretty much every year with the timeline pushed out and a nice graph showing the huge pipeline and revenue growth... Always just a couple of years away. Total new products approved in that time... Zero! We spent 1.5 billion to buy FluMist but other than that every single drug fell out... Or was sold off, like the HPV vaccine. My advice - don't sit and wait. With SC you have an egotistical moron driving you straight into the iceberg. Honestly... You met him, right? Think about it. Medimmune is dead.

thanks for your comments and your contibutions to the company's successes. Sounds like your one of the former cmm's that actually knew what a nicu looks like. Good look at your new place.

Is it time to stick your finger up your a$$ and lick it? It will taste a lot better than the taste in your mouth after you're here a while.
 






I was hoping for some specifics. Why does it suck? Low pay? Bad hours? Boring? Crappy co-workers? No chance for promotion? Overworked?

read the open letter post to get a flavor of how this company operates. Bad culture, Creeps in HR, mean, no sole, or just join and add to the list, bring K-Y with you if you get hired.

The word is "soul", you ignorant idiot! But back to your question, the answer is run like hell from this dying company. AstraZeneca has all but destroyed it, like they have done to their own company. AZ is pure poison.
