NO WAY I'M TAKING THIS FROM ABBVIE!







"1.) 90-120K"

My offer came to a salary of $142, 455 ish (not telling you the real # but its close) plus the 7% profit sharing and the 2000 shares of restricted stock and the 37,000 guestimated bonus + my little extra negotiated perk

Not bad-its a little bit more than what I will make at Gilead but I am with a better company.
 












I'm not sure if I feel comfortable calling this Tom guy. I do want to connect with someone that can tell me about pay, timelines etc. I am interested in Abbvie after being laid off. I was hoping I could have stayed on with Vertex forever. I never had any beef with the company. They did me right (well, at least until the end). Who is Anthony again?
 




































Negotiated an offer with base in the 80s but with 3-4x the upside I'm seeing reported here if I make the numbers. I know I can work this drug. Shoot, I managed to blast a lot of my competition with a much inferior drug to sell. Maybe I'm a gambler, or cocky, but if I'd had a deal like this with Vertex I'd have a lot more in the bank right now.

Thinking of pulling the trigger, although I do have another possibility that has a geographical allure.

Thanks for baring your chest, stud.

You negotiated a different bonus structure from the rest of the sales force....yeah right. Run along to another board now little troll.
 












we sound like a bunch of primary care cry babies. we are so good that no matter what the base salary is we will crush it on the bonus side. we are really good. we are really good.

Agreed. I heard from a friend in Abbvie that they actually LOWERED the base once the realization hit that their will be a whole bunch of un-employed PI experienced reps just waiting to jump at ANY OFFER made. In a couple cases, they actually went back on offers already on the table with Merck reps. If you think about this; I mean REALLY think about this; It will give you the same thoughts that it gave me. Hey, I get it. We need jobs. I just think we are being Used....AGAIN!

I know I mis-spelled some words- give me a break here. Just LISTEN TO WHAT I'M SAYING. WE R ABOUT READY TO BE USED AGAIN. It starting to freak me out.
 
























OK - I'll see you in class. Let's just see who fails and who passes. Remember what position I maintain, or did you all forget. I told them we should not lower our standards (and our pay scale!)
