It's easier just to switch companies if you want a $35-$40K bump in pay for the same type of work.

Agreed. AZ does not value loyalty. They'd rather hire a newbie earning more than you at a higher career ladder and expect you to train them. You should always do what is best for You - and until AZ rewards leadership and loyalty from it's veterans there will be no motivation to stay and perform at your best.
 




I received the letter. I experienced both pay and promotion discrimination as a female AZ rep and also had multiple managers say they wouldn't hire or promote females. I know for a fact I was paid far less than my male counterparts doing the same job. I tolerated it because at the end of the day it was still great money. Still wasn't fair though. In all honestly though I'm afraid to become a part of the lawsuit since I have many years left I need to work in the industry and I don't want to burn bridges. I don't work for AZ anymore but I doubt I'd be hired back if I wanted to be if I were involved in suing them! It sucks.

No one made those statements to you, lying hussy.

I'd never work for them again. Never saw a woman promoted during the seven years I was there.
 




AZ only hires women!!! They are overrepresented and overpaid compared to their male counterparts.. AZ never pays current employees as much as new hires. If you want more money you have to exit AZ.

Seriously pathetic. Everyone is brought into in to any company based on previous experience, skill set, etc. If you don't like or agree with your salary look elsewhere.

It is that simple. There are more woman than men in the pharma industry. Crying discrimination and trying to join some sort of ambulance chasing lawyer class action in hopes of grabbing a few bucks years later is just sad and a sign of the times.

Then explain why men with the SAME experience doing the SAME job in the SAME territory were making a higher salary and getting promotions? Did it ever occur to you that there are areas of the country with a very strong male dominated culture? Where men have been working for decades and are networked with other men that live in the same neighborhood or go to the same church, they go hunting and golfing together? Not an easy barrier to break! So f*ck off!

Your experience is your experience, however in oncology there are females with no experience in either sales or leadership that are leading sales teams. Those are highly paid and sought after positions that have been, in several instances, given (I deliberately used the word given) to unqualified women based on cronyism and favoritism. They’ve been given license to become self described boss bitches, go on power trips and ruin careers - mostly of men.

The door swings both ways when it comes to what’s fair.

Why would you want to come back to this place like this if that’s how you were treated? Sue away, get what you can. You and all of us are/were just numbers to them anyway.
 




Women should be paid less than men. Everyone knows it but are afraid to admit it. Every female I have known at AZ was always taking off at every opportunity. Pick the brats up from daycare, kids are sick, nail/hair appointments, pregnancy, the weather, doctor appointment, etc., etc., etc. Most offices can’t stand them because the women that work in there resent them because they make more money, dress better, have company cars, etc. They should automatically be paid 25% less than hard working men or family providers.

This is the reason there is a lawsuit. Idiot
 




I received a verbal offer for a director position at AZ. I haven't got the actual offer letter with compensation details. what is this lawsuit about? Should I be worried looking at this thread?
