Prospects for laid off pharma manager worse than for a rep. Just like everyone outside the industry knows pharma reps don't really sell, so it is known that pharma managers don't really " manage" anything. A lot less positions for managers in a shrinking industry. Gonna be almost impossible to replace hi salaries and higher un- warranted bonuses.
What do you say honestly on a resume? " I baby sat 10 cry baby reps, rode around in the company car with them and watched them deliver samples? Every Friday I did non-existent paper work but really mowed my yard and played golf, which reminds me, does this job come with an office day?"
And in the case of our local manager-he can add he got all the pharma reps kicked out of clinics because he's such a fat ass and never shuts his mouth. If you weigh over 250 pounds and less than 6' tall you should not be allowed to manage in this industry. Come on-this guy comes waddling in and everybody looks at him-"this guy works in the healthcare industry?"
