The VBU continues to crumble

There are 3 buckets of people when it comes to Shingrix:
1) those who have already been vaccinated
2) those who refuse all vaccines (becoming much more common post covid)
3) those are on the fence and need convinced by their doctors to get vaccinated.
Good luck with number 2 and good luck thinking doctors are gonna spend a ton of time trying to convince number 3. Your growth in Shingrix is now dependent on new patients turning 50. The IRA helped growth from patients on Medicare who couldn’t afford Shingrix by making it $0. After that spike, it’s been a free fall. Sadly, management is oblivious and sets the in unrealistic sales goals for Shingrix know the patient pool is sinking every day. Good luck.

No2 = stupid Americans. Quite a lot in that category.

As the VBU continues to face challenges, how does your incentive pay look? I'm grateful for MBOs as a key part of my incentive pay, and I set achievable goals to maximize my payout.

Thankful for my severance! Off to greener pastures for sure. Some good people still hanging on at GSK and may God bless your journey! GSK afforded me the ability to support my family and some nice things in life. Thankful.

To whoever wrote the above post: are you kidding? It’s a sales role with excellent training. You act like you need a PhD. Can you learn? Have clinical conversations? Be nice? Think? Plan? Then you should go for it! Ignore the other comments. It’s not that hard.

The VBU are essentially order takers—just highly paid versions of McDonald's drive-thru employees. I keep hearing VBU reps claim they make a difference, but that's just nonsense. If you really want to make a difference, quit your overpaid job and do something meaningful, like picking up trash on the highway.

Most orders are not done via GSK reps, so your statement is factually incorrect. Sorry you couldn’t make the cut.

You just keep hearing??? Lol, so you admit you know jack shit?

The VBU needs to be sold to the highest bidder and proceeds put into auto immune and oncology. Besides, vaccines aren't truely aren't innovative. It's commodity sales with low profit margin.
