Amneal





This company is acting terrible and cutting costs because of legal settlements they have to pay - which is reason for the terrible path they’ve taken with leadership and putting reps on plans. It is very interesting - I saw Amneal displayed on a talk show speaking about the opioid epidemic and then researched further and found this.


Amneal Pharmaceuticals has agreed to a $272.5 million settlement to resolve approximately 900 lawsuits related to its role in the opioid crisis. The settlement, reached with multiple states, includes $92.5 million in cash payments over the next decade and $180 million worth of naloxone, a medication that can reverse opioid overdoses [oai_citation:1,Attorney General James Secures Over $270 Million Multistate Settlement in Principle with Amneal Pharmaceuticals for Its Role in the Opioid Crisis](Attorney General James Secures Over $270 Million Multistate Settlement in Principle with Amneal Pharmaceuticals for Its Role in the Opioid Crisis) [oai_citation:2,Amneal resolves opioid lawsuits with $272.5M settlement](Amneal agrees to $272.5M settlement to resolve opioid lawsuits) [oai_citation:3,Delaware DOJ announces a $270 multistate settlement in principle with opioid manufacturer | Delaware First Media](Delaware DOJ announces a $270 multistate settlement in principle with opioid manufacturer).

The lawsuits alleged that Amneal, which sold nearly nine billion opioid pills from 2006 to 2019, failed to monitor and report suspicious orders as required by federal law [oai_citation:4,NY AG reaches $270M multistate opioid settlement with Amneal Pharmaceuticals - Top Class Actions](NY AG reaches $270M multistate opioid settlement with Amneal Pharmaceuticals - Top Class Actions). The settlement aims to provide resources for opioid abatement and treatment across the affected states, though Amneal did not admit to any wrongdoing as part of the agreement [oai_citation:5,Amneal resolves opioid lawsuits with $272.5M settlement](Amneal agrees to $272.5M settlement to resolve opioid lawsuits) [oai_citation:6,NY AG reaches $270M multistate opioid settlement with Amneal Pharmaceuticals - Top Class Actions](NY AG reaches $270M multistate opioid settlement with Amneal Pharmaceuticals - Top Class Actions).

This settlement is part of broader efforts by various states to hold pharmaceutical companies accountable for their roles in the opioid epidemic, contributing to a total of over $51 billion in settlements related to the crisis nationwide [oai_citation:7,Amneal resolves opioid lawsuits with $272.5M settlement](Amneal agrees to $272.5M settlement to resolve opioid lawsuits) [oai_citation:8,Delaware DOJ announces a $270 multistate settlement in principle with opioid manufacturer | Delaware First Media](Delaware DOJ announces a $270 multistate settlement in principle with opioid manufacturer).

I also heard from a colleague who just came from Hikma doing similar practices as Amneal. Is it a coincidence?

Interesting that the Patel bros. did not reveal the settlement in their announcement to company regarding naxolone. This place is shady.
 




At least you don't have to get the constant daily texts we all get from O in the FL region. Very on top of you all the time. When it comes to people not leaving in droves, the job market is very tight right now, most people are looking, it just hasn't happened for us yet.

“Now you know that her daily Bible verse is the glue that holds all you in the South together. She bragged so much about them that this was shared with the Rytary team. Vomit
 




It was communicated today that those on action plans will be rolled over to PIPs. This fact should scare everyone. We are not hitting our numbers yet they are choosing people to manage out. Anyone here could be next. Numbers are all that matter now and you are just a number.

She’s the worst. Probably sending them while she’s either shopping, sipping cocktails or visiting Disney…again.
 
































This company is unethical and the actions all stem from Helen k.She is incompetent and has created a hostile work environment for everyone. IF The company had any morales and followed employment law, she would be terminated.
 












Glad I left this dump a long time ago.

Laughable for some idiots on here to put Luann Carol and moral compass in the same sentence when in actuality that witch had none.


Luann Carol was a saint compared to the lady who took her place. Julie is the only decent one left. I am sure her head is spinning with all these PIPs. Why don’t they just have a layoff and get done with it? Oh I know why, JR is building a billion dollar plus in sales company with all the new drugs we are launching. They should stop the videos on LinkedIn and save that money. There are hardly any comments because word on the street says differently.
 












Maybe over the holiday HK will grow a heart and appreciate everyone and be thankful for everyone here. We are close to launch time. It will take all skill sets, backgrounds, experience, age and look to be successful. Hold all personal vendettas in check and be thankful for this team has delivered despite your distractions and hostile environment you have created. We are all more than just numbers and performance.
 




Unfortunately, that isn't going to cross her mind as she will be too drunk and hungover to be thinking about any of us.

Beat me to it! Thats an accurate description
I’m very concerned about this launch and it starts with training. I love SF to death but she’s overworked and the department is understaffed. After all this time since MM got fired they STILL haven’t found a replacement. BC is basically an Employee at Large and has no experience running a Training Department. Basically he’s become HK’s beyotch. Talk about a person whose integrity and respect from others has taken a hit.
Hopefully I won’t be around for the pathetic attempt at a launch that will be IPX. When it fails no one actually involved in its failure will get blamed. No, they will get promoted and given fat checks. Just look at BC.
