WHY ALL THE RESUMES FROM ALKERMES?

[anonymous]

uep. Burnt out for sure. Can’t blame AK
Or MS any longer as they have been gone for a bit. It
Starts with sr Leadership and the fact that they don’t get the importance of people. If they did they would be able to achieve great things with average products. It’s all about the people. Nothing else matters because people deliver results. And people
Are treated like shit here and valued even les so there you go

Truth!

Prove your “people theory” and make our numbers speak. All have a right to vent, but don’t be the few vapid souls who makes venting their daily focus. If sales was easy, anyone could do it. Take the good with the bad we had years of great sales trajectory and ic multipliers, now a Plateau...make your choice: start early, increase frequency, extra call at end of day, refocus call plan and objectives, challenges your MDs. Or be the soul who vents in a virtual portal and hear nothing but the echo of your own voice... make your choice!

Maybe just maybe our drugs suck

Usually when growth plateaus combined with a bad news about a long awaited FDA approval it so not good news for the sales force. Basically it means layoffs are in our future. It’s the go to cut to save on expenses.

The plateau was in a handful of states that drove majority of historical growth, reproduceable in other states. Nothing but upside with a 5% MS in space.... so make your choice, complain on here about an unfounded downsizing or kick your territory in the ass and prove your value in the event a downsizing materializes. Refocus your effort, rants and disappointment into what u can control... your territory, your performance, your career...

So says you... then move on...a real salesperson can thrive in any enviroment /any market. Let someone hungry come in and turn your underperforming territory into gold. Not the drugs that suck ... maybe it’s you.

Ya that's why we are hiring close to 75 people in the last couple months and into February. Idiot.

The recent expansion is not a guarantee of long term employment. STOP thinking like a sales rep.

Me too injectable. Antidepressant mostly like not getting approved. 1/4 of a billion dollars down the toilet on that R&D. You’re the idiot. It’s not about you, it's about the shareholders. We are hemorrhaging cash in case you haven’t noticed.

Shareholders want a return on their investment and if that means cutting headcount in the field to boost the stock price, so be it.

Bottom line you my C list friend are expendable and Alkermes leadership knows that. Short sighted sales reps like you are a dime a dozen which is why we have no problem firing you. It’s business but then again you think it’s all about you.
