This is truly a bullshit job

[anonymous]

Hey, I'm a mid 20s MD that took the path of the MSL/Medical Affairs for the money, 8 months later i truly think the MSL job and lots of medical affairs jobs are bullshit and unnecessary. Yes, there is a need for deep scientific discussions but that's like 1 to 5% of whats HCPs want, for real, as a MD that has been on both sides of the chair we really dont care what your rep or msl is saying most of the time and yeah some HCPs actually listen and apply what you teach them.

But let's be real, they just care about the money and benefits as much as everybody else. I'm asked to go visit 3 to 5 hcps a day and i find that so unnecesary and useless. It's amazing the lengths corporations will go just to tick boxes for the corporate overlords. And thats what this job feels like, to tick a box for corporate so that we can say we are following compliance after the bad reputation big pharma has gained over the last 20 years.

I’m guessing you went to Ross or Granada. Your a PG1 year and got let go during the residency.

Perhaps DO school would have been wright for yous?

Don’t worry sunny your MSL position as all the others are on life-support and soon will be exited which means eliminated laid off hit the street. Here’s your hat. What’s your hurry? Don’t let the company sales chuck wagon msl sales charriott cars door hit you ass as you leave.

Do you offer clinic lunches?
