What is the real future of GSK?

Seems a reorganization and realignment of territories is in order. Nothing feels right. Can anyone shed any light? Former or current employees with any notion respond?

 

we be fixin' to buy Pfizer.....

 

CEO on hot seat. This company ripe for take-over.

 

Things are going great, and they're only getting better
I'm doing all right, getting good grades
The future's so bright, I gotta wear shades
I gotta wear shades, I gotta wear shades

 

well get your shades, and rap right on down to the unemployment office....

 

GSKs stock is in the toilet so why not merge (get bought out by Pfizer)? JP Garniers’ lies and crooked dealing doomed the company before the GW/SKB merger. Andrew Witty’s strategy is a complete failure. All that is left at GSK is talentless management whose only recourse to survive is to constantly reog to hide the fact they are inept.

 

The future of GSK is InVentiv. Ask around, three more teams starting before year end. They are not telling us anything but before we know it GSK sales force will be minimal and Inventiv will own everything. They are slow cooking us frogs in the pot.

 

Inventive rep increase or another pharma company (Pfizer) takeover. Both are strong options. Either way rep cuts will be announced by years end. Company went over the edge in 2014 and will never recover.

 

Thank you Nostradamus.

 

What a bunch of complete lunatics!!!! Inventive will own everything? THEY ARE A CONTRACT COMPANY YOU MORON!!!! They own nothing!!!!!!! Do you even know how the contracts work? GSK can cancel them at anytime. Do you know of any Pharma company who has there entire sales force in the hands of a contract company? Thats's what I thought. Who would Jack, Debbie, and Cheryl manage? The vaccines division? C'mon!!! That division is not even profitable at this point in time. We don't have any contracts to speak of. Here is the deal and it's quite simple. The primary-care sales force is the bread and butter of our company...every big pharma company. The U.S., despite what Abass want's to believe, still drives the profit train and will continue to drive the train! Emerging markets have a very long time horizon..like decades!! India, Brazil,...China (LMFAO) amount to nothing!!! Hell, we give away our malaria vaccines to Africa. The U.S. PCP sales force is a necessary evil for GSK as long as they have meds in that respective selling space...period!! Now, could we have a lay off? Hell yea!! The secondary asthma division and about 30% of sales managers from all divisions. It's a no brainer! Make managers full-line. There's my two-cents!

 

Gosh, hope you were able to get to sleep after that .

 

Look at our stock prices. We are the ugly one at the dance. I just hope if someone buys us out they keep some of us around. Keep our fingers crossed

 

LOL

 

I think you are the only one that thinks that your posts are funny.

 

When will the company address the obvious? Too many TSMs!! There are districts where there are only 5 or 6 reps!!! There was a day when a manager had 15 reps per district. What the hell is going on with this issue? Managers are expensive. Salary of 120K, Bonuse of 30K, a car, benefits...you are looking at 200K per TSM! Cut 50 TSMs across the country and save $10,000,000 per year. Simple, easy, and necessary!

 

You all debate about nothing meaningful. The end is here and if you are hanging in for the package than that should be all that is mentioned. There is no recovery from where GSK is going. You just better hope they can still offer a decent severance.

 

Package / Severance Pay > As of 10-1-15 there will be a major change in this policy.

 

Then cut the real TSM--Tagine ServerMoncelf--and save another several million/yr! Plus free R&D resources to be used non-dehydrated brains.

 

I understand some of the negativity around GSK but I have read for years (generally before a large reorg) that the severance package will be cut. It doesn`t happen and will not happen this time. I just hope you have the decency to come back on 10-2-15 and admit you were wrong.
I also find it interesting the constant criticism of the pipeline, was this being said a few years ago when GSK lead the industry for FDA approvals (proven medicines).

 

Yes Sir, will do. [ sorry folks, that was my manager ]
