Pros

Some nice people that work there

Cons

Very poor insurance coverage for products, pay is month delayed. Once you leave and they owe you commission they will not pay you. Disorganized structure, still trying to figure it out. Have decent products but insurance won't cover them because they are outrageously priced, don't blame the insurance companies. Regionals try to micromanage because company isn't bringing in revenue fast enough because of insurance declining coverage. Lots of turnover in sales reps. They have started hiring more W2 reps so they don't care about 1099's anymore. Don't know how they are going to make a living promoting just their few products that don't get covered.

Forward Science Response

We take great pride in the products we developed here at Forward Science as they have helped to change the lives of many patients. While some of our products are not covered by all insurance plans, we have patient assistance programs available to provide affordable options to those individuals who need them. We have experienced tremendous growth of our company within the last few years and are invested in growing both our 1099 and W2 sales teams. Please contact us directly regarding your concern with not receiving commission checks as we have always paid out commissions due to all of our representatives.

Pros

Its a job until something better comes along

Cons

Managed care coverage extremely poor which means low to no commissions. Ask to see reimbursement numbers in writing when you interview. Low pay and vehicle and meal expenses exceed reimbursement received. Sales goals change continuously.
