Union for Reps

[anonymous]

Got a call from a union that is forming to represent pharma reps in the U.S. Has anyone else received this call? Is there anything that we signed that prevents us from joining a union? We can have a say about all these metrics.

what are you complaining about? Actually having to work a full 40 hour week? SMDH

This is a good idea.

Not complaining about working but about having my bonus docked if i can't meet an arbitrary metric. I work very hard to constantly getting my bonus reduced. If I make 99.3% of my goal, I get paid at 96%. No other company does this. I wonder how much the VPs will get their IC reduced or the CBDs. I heard reps who hate their managers are purposefully going to hurt their bonuses. We need our rights protected as workers to get paid for the work we do.

you are an ‘at will’ employee. Your compensation has a component that is based on ‘pay for performance’. Go ahead and start your union. This will be good for a laugh or 2.

At will doesn't apply to union contracts. Get with the union program.

This is the dumbest idea ever. Shut up and stop your whining

Brilliant! Be sure to reach out to Panera catering people also! Together you can take over the whirled.

the union concept is the WORST thing to ever happen to the country. Terrible. What kind of lazy dumbass tries to start a union with a group that barely put in a full 40 hour work week.

Be careful what you wish for.

A union for reps!! How laughable! I retired after 40 years in this industry, not with BI, and union talk was around long before I began. It will never, never happen.
