NO and you better do your research if you are planning on working and especially relocating to work for ISI. If you do relocate make sure it is an area where you can find another job in 2 years.
You must be desperate as this is one of the worst companies you could possibly work for.

Intuitive does offer a nice package for relo.
first your mental health, then your spare time and finally your soul as you compromise yourself daily. dont worry it bcomes like second nature after you role play it a few times with your manager and peers.

Now I don't work at isi nor have I, but I am shocked by the bitterness. Im sure isi is not perfect but there seems to be some way worse places to be. Especially considering the $$$$. (assuming you actually work). Try life as a 1099 with no base salary. You might appreciate a base, benefits, and other "perks"
You don't have a clue princess... remember... at ISI if you hit 110%, the question is.... ,why not 115 sanbagger? If you haven't worked/lived it, keep your mouth closed and enjoy your 1099 Jon. Obviously not qualified to get a real job. Even phatma reps make at least 80 salary.
Settle down. Most of the complainers are probably ex pharma reps who could not cut it.My whole point was that even though ISI appears to be tough, considering that the $$ is good and benefits are decent, there are a lot of worse places to be. Yes, I am a 1099, I make plenty of money and enjoy the flexibility and freedom, but some days the perks of a corporate job and w2 status would be nice. Also, If I finished 110%, I would ask myself why not 115%. We all can improve, can't we?
I am quite familiar with the work setting for companies such as ISI. It does not matter what setting you are looking at there will and are always disgruntled,naive,immature individuals who can only pick at the negative things they imagine only impact themselves. The people posting on this site as well as all of Cafepharma are taking advantage of the secret nature of posting to promote their agendas. Take this stuff with a grain of salt. If you have the opportunity to be positive be that way. Also take the opportunity to point out what needs to be bettered at ISI but then go and do what you can to make it better. Best of luck you and the others at ISI can make a truly significant contribution to our health care setting.
So now we are to feel better about a 4 hour gall bladder that charges insurance 120k?
Do you really have evidence of such a situation happening? Are the facts really facts or just hyped up feelings? If the surgery really did last the length you are implying then it ws not the machines fault was it? You can take a horse (physician) to water but can you make them drink? A poor or slow surgeon is not going to be made faster or better just because of the machine. If it were that simple then we would be mandating all be trained on the machine. Costs are just that costs. Who allowed such an outrageous fee/expense for a proceedure? Do aspirin in the hospital really cost dollars? What are the real costs versus what has to be billed in order to get the real expense recouped? It is just not a simple case of white vs. black. You know it and so does everyone else. Quit wasting your time and ours as well!
If you haven't worked for ISI you have no idea what you are talking about, it is amazing how much of what is written is absolutely true.
Click on any other company on this site and read through a few posts. The complaints are similar everywhere.
At some point the complainers grow up and realize no organization is perfect and learns to to focus on what he/she can control and appreciates the good parts of the org.
If you can't see the good parts, then ask yourself the quesion, am I a victim or could I actually be the problem?
I am sure that everyone at ISI wishes your post was that simple. sad part is that amount of activity and venom on this site proves how little reps at ISI feel thy have a voice within the company. To call ppl who post here whiney and victims is easy. some may be, others may be earnest incredibly hard working ppl who want better for the company and themselves. Fact is the relationship is abusive and the culture is one that is never remotely satisfied. It always needs a sacrifice! It could come in the form of a conference call victim, a lay off or firing or on the management call. Every level calls for soul to be served up. The people who get promoted and thrive are the ones who serve them up the best. Anything to draw attention away from themselves. Do the math and think it through on who is in what role and how. At the end of the day, the place is poisonous we all know it.
the bottom line is that we basically have 2 types posting here:
1) People that have never worked at Intuitive and are bitter because they either didnt get the job or intuitive has taken some of their business
2) Ex intuitive reps who couldnt cut it either because they didnt have the ability or they could have been in a situation where they had a poor "superior"
As with any company, there are great, average and poor leaders and reps. If it isnt the place for you (either of your own choice or that of the hiring decision makers), get over it and go do something else other than bash something you know nothing about- i.e. 120K for a chole
Cant wait to hear your replies....

You're making my point. Of course it's not perfect. We work long hours, expectations are high, change is frequent, and poor performers get managed out. News flash- I've also seen similar issues at every company I've worked at.
At some point you have to either make the best of it and focus on the good, or leave and go to the greener pasture you seem to believe is out there. But staying miserable is the least productive thing you can do. Take control and make a decision.
