Amarin

On the flip side, if the new reps are good at what they do, they can help increase the price Amarin eventually gets from Big Pharma. If the buyout doesn't occur until end of 2013 (after Anchor is FDA approved), the reps might be able to make serious $, especially if Amarin gives them stock options.

I got my offer letter earlier this week. I have filled out the paper work for the background check. I have done my drug screen. I was told by my DM that all offers have been extended. I start on Jan. 2 with Amarin and this is not a contract position with quintiles. They were hired to help with R/H. The people that are saying negative things are people who did not get the job. Who knows what will happen, but I am willing to take a chance. Maybe we will work for 6 months or maybe 6 years. It is what it is. The job is not on hold or been delay.

Congrats and good luck with your new position! Hopefully Amarin is putting a few hundred more reps back to work.
 






I have been hearing that management feels like Reliant sold to GSK for too low of a price. I think they will try to get a better deal than that and that may take a while in this market.

Didn't get the job, but I was told in my interview that Amarin was looking at offering stock options of 1000 shares. If the stock rises $10 or $20 over the grant price, that is some decent money.

That's an extra $16k if bought at $25, assuming your purchase price is $9. Even better if they give it to you at less then market value.

This keeps happe ing to me I am sick and tired of it and am looking into trying to prove it. I have made it ti the final 2 at least 5 times and am always passed over.

Run spell checker on your resume. If it is anything like your post on CP, that IS the reason you are being passed over. That and you are probably faking your reviews and reports and they can see the whiteout on the forms.
 






























Never seen this site before. After 25 yrs of options trading I personally can only recall a few scenarios that match Amarin all ended in quick buyouts or huge catalyst pos or neg. I am a wall st options professional and the options spread favors a buyout very near term (under 4 months). Market makers have set the options calendar and its crazy for Amarin from current pps

How do I know that you are an options professional? I'd like to think so, but prove it to me.

Doubtful, if the Buyout happens within the next month. In fact there are rumors that the hiring is on hold. Nobody can even confirm a start date at this time. If the do self launch and buyout happens late 2013 then maybe the reps keep their jobs. But if the acquiring company is AZN then they already have the resources to market the product.

There is no hold on the hiring. The start date for the reps is Jan. 2. Away training starts Jan 21. The managers are at a meeting this week. I dont know why anyone thinks there is a hold on the hiring. Maybe the recruiters are telling the ones that did not get the job that everything is on hold in case some of the new hires decides not to take the job.

If a buyout happens, who knows what will happen. I think everyone who was hired knows it is a risk on how long we will work but for the ones that have been out of work for a while we are willing to take the risk.

Wall Street guy, you can only predict a buyout in 4 months, but in reality nobody knows when it will happen. When it does happen we all could make a lot of money on the stock.

Sometimes in life you have to take a chance to get ahead in life. I for one am willing to take a chance.
 












Wrong - Pfizer is 36 hours away from a good size layoff. Quintiles is hiring contract reps for this gig and those reps won't be brought over. When Pfizer bought Wyeth they only kept 10% of the reps
 






Merck just entered the list of potential Amarin suitors with the failure of its Niacin product.

Other potential buyers: Teva
AstraZeneca
Abbott
GSK

Amarin will be bought. It's only a question of when.
 












No offers made yet. IF they get new chemical enitity then yes if not we got our contracts. I just do not know why the FDA doesnt give them a 3 year limit they are wasting time on the 5 year
