Don't come to this company. They are hiring BRCA carriers to pimp their products right now. it's the same thing as hiring cancer victims to sell cancer products. Pretty sick if you ask me. Also, they are discriminating against men. The ratio of women to men at Myriad is around 5:1 and men are always getting the shaft no matter the experience. You know about the firefighters that were discriminated against because they were white? Well, it's only a matter of time before a Lawyer gets his/her hands on this company because it is just waiting for a huge lawsuit to occur. I know of at least 5 men that were laid off and replaced with women, even if they reached goal, had no problems at meetings, were ideal employees! This company is a disgrace. do NOT take the job offer.

Bottom line, 2 years in: Company pays exceptionally well & depending on your manager can be a total cakewalk. I made over $120k last year and stayed home more often than not. Bracanalysis sells itself, almost no work at all and a fat paycheck. The company is NOT started, run, owned, or dominated by Mormons. It's based in Utah because Mormons are really into documenting their family trees and are perfect for researching inherited diseases, even though they're heavily inbred. I have 15 years experience in the industry, mostly Pharma, and hope I never have to leave this gravy train. Cool products, too, actually saving lives and growing. Pharma is dying, genetics is the future, and Myriad is the leader. If you are fortunate enough to get an offer, you'd be crazy to pass it up. It's the best sales job in the biz. Stay at home, earn a wad, saves lives doing it. Isn't that why you went into the business?
Could anyone help with the sales force email structure. Thanks
$120K total comp? That is all? I make more than that in salary. They don't pay for oncology experiece.
Do tell. How many of your MDs actually order for your test. 20? My guess is a small number of customers per territory. Better yet, how many have ordered more than 5 tests in a month?
No Layoffs! the stock is great! Everyone loves us!
My how the worm has turned
HR says there is a stack of rep files on the desks a mile high
the stock has been sucking air at the low 20s since anyone can remember
since management can't deliver to Wallstreet their solution is to blame the salesforce
the new product OnDose ain't performin', was delayed in the launch, a bunch of docs who used it in clinical trials are p*ssed and won't endorse it to other docs ... no medicare approval for a test to be used in colorectal cancer patients Brilliant! no data relevant to how colorectal cancer is actually treated Brilliant! Doctors who try it once or twice or even three times walk away from the test even when it's offered for free
finally they've gone out their way to p*ss off most genetics programs who are burning the candle at both ends working to get the reps kicked out any clinics they can Brilliant!
Fun times here in SLC

Any information on the Albany, NY position? What is the manager like? What does the compensation and benefits package look like for someone with 10 years of pharma experience?
Does anyone know why the position became available?

don't kid yourself unless you are from the insiders club of Eli Lilly they won't give a hoot about your pharma experience and likely will consider it a liability med/dental some of the lamest in the industry
speaking of young, inexperience dms, R Cook is an idiot.
Do all JAPs have big noses like K. Fischer? I thought most of them got nose jobs in junior high? She would have been decent looking if she had gotten that taken care of... Oh well. I guess it's ok when you keep telling yourself that you are hot when you're unattractive.
I love how everyone is in the know. I am just reading this and it is now 2010, which is 4 years later and this company has not been bought out by big pharma yet.... Just goes to show the ignorance on this board.
Don't be too confident. Marketing for a buyout can take as many as five years or could be even longer during times like these. Tenured industry professionals with more of a global prospective (ie have worked in other healthcare organizations besides Lilly on a much higher level) with regard to healthcare science understand how pipelines and the nature of product lifecycle can effect when a company will be sold. If ignorance is truly bliss... then we all know why one would be so happy to brag that everyone else is wrong
Im interviewing with Myriad does anyone know the current base range and the number of vacation sick days you get
What is the current scoop om Myriad? What is the salary + bonus range for Area Managers? How is the current culture?
Salary is mid 70's for reps, bonus is 7-8k per quarter at plan. I made 22 k last quarter. Culture is strained right now, but hopefully will be getting better, most reps aren't making bonus so they aren't too happy
White, Mormon, Jewish...
If you consider Mormandom to be a culture. HA HA!
Hope that helps.
The company has a good product but terrible leadership. The whole company is too sensitive and is more worried about making a mistake than taking a risk and getting more business. The genetic counselors think that they are drs. which is somewhat entertaining. Low pay, low bonus, no car, no company card, etc. If you have to have a job go here but watch your back.
