Does anyone else think that the Q4 quotas are absolutely ridiculous?!
I’m talking about a 76%!!! No way in hell that’ll happen!You’re telling me a 20%+ increase is ridiculous?!?
Well, you know, we have to you know, satisfy , you know share holders and you know we don't care about, you know sales people.
Thank you, you know.
Thank God I left this place. Amarin is a horribly selfish company with no empathy for anyone other than themselves. I get that it’s a business, but to increase goals by 50-75% during a global pandemic is asinine. They don’t care about you, they don’t care about patients. And they don’t even pretend to. Incredibly unprofessional
Hopefully JT does the right thing and sells the company. Many long time employees have their life savings invested in this while he is worth 40m plus with free options. We are pounding the pavement to make it easy for Generics to just get it switched at the Pharmacy.
The goal increase is part of the plan to significantly downsize the salesforce. Most won't come close to hitting their goals and management knows this. And when you don't hit your goals, especially if you're ranked in the bottom 50%, you can be targeted and pressured, and/or put on a PIP. You'll either leave because of the pressure (that includes a reality-based fear of losing your job) or you'll stick it out and be terminated. Very few ever survive a PIP if it comes to that. Those of us who have been around in Pharma know that the strategy I've described is one of the oldest in management's playbook. Given all that's occurred with this company, best advice is to secure another gig or at least have some kind of a plan if you decide to stick around.
This is what's known in pharma as thinning the herd: they will make you miserable in order to get you to go away. If you stay and don't make goal you will be put on a plan and made miserable until you go away...
