UCB!!!


Has anyone researched the products and age range for the UCB products that are currently being marketed? I can see where our product fits in but not our sales force. Big difference compared to when Jazz bought GW.
 
uCB did not buy Zogenix for their reps I cAn guarantee you that. UCB has their own reps most of which have stronger relationships in pediatric neurology. Look at what Supernus did recently.

don’t disagree, but who gives a crap about supernus? The company is a joke, their products are mediocre reformulations and the reps are horrible.

Don’t be naive to acquisitions. The company doing the acquiring usually takes down the reps of that company. Nobody saying Supernus is a stellar company but they cut entire Adamas sales force after acquiring them. Better watch your back. UCB will be coming for you.
 
How’s the job hunting going for you guys? Any word what the UCB severance package is?

Only someone who is extremely insecure would bully like this. A zogenix rep posted on this site because yes, we are worried. We are passionate about our patients and we have families that we support. Maybe you’re worried about your own job security? I personally think that we could all work really well together if we just stay in our lanes. This is a completely different sale than selling a retail drug for epilepsy. This is specialty pharmacy, a REMS program, and ultra rare disease. You know nothing about this. If you want to learn then we would love to teach you. Change your attitude and let’s all grow together.

Although making a post like the above may make you feel better about your appraisal price, unfortunately UCB does not care. Be smart and dust off your resume. Ultra Rare Disease sounds like an impressive resume term. Hiring managers will be more concerned about how many ultra rare disease orders you got! The fancy resume term will mean nothing to them without showing how much business you had. Good luck.

relax princess, you may tell yourself there is a big difference in what you do, but at the end of the day you are a drug rep calling on the same docs as the “retail” reps.

the distribution model makes little difference. You probably cam from Sunovion anyway.

reading this as a ex-UCB member who recently left the organization. You guys should work together, but UCB does now what rare diseases is. Look at the pipeline. The rare disease culture was adopted and defined BEFORE UCB became a rare disease company. Patient value is in their blood, to the point where members didn’t even talk about revenues when discussing projects.

Right rare disease at this company is a farce. Many came here cause they were on the run from a bad situation or jobless and did not sell anything but peanuts here. Not exactly rare disease experts but more BS specialists.
