If they are laying off the AZ reps don't you think you were hired to replace them?

Publicis reps, good luck seriously. I am SURE if we are having lay offs some Publicis Crestor territories well let lay offs as well. I want to be positive, start looking now while you your last 8 months or so. For those who get let go, my prayers are with and your family.

You are stupid~

Why would that comment be stupid? AZ will want to continue to market Crestor but not with expensive in house reps. Perfect job for contract.

keep dreaming, my guess is the contract will end prematurely

We're not even 3 months into it yet and haven't even had a chance to have an impact yet, given the crazy call lists we received at first. I don't see how this could be cut THAT short. I would guess we were partly hired in anticipation of these lay-offs... We are obviously more cost-effective and they did higher a lot of good reps with experience.

But if anyone hears otherwise, PLEASE share the info (if it's valid)!

By the way, before I get crucified, I meant "hire" not "higher". Tired here...

its a contract, we are at will employee's, just because a contract is signed for 2 years, it does not mean it will last 2 years, I have been on contracts that ended as soon as training finished, I hope for our sake this continues on, but personally I don't see it

Thank heaven someone knows what they're talking about............contracts always have an "out" built in them. There are no guarantees.

If the AZ-Gastro contract is any indication, it SHOULD make it...the GI contract, initially a year, was extended for another.

What the fuck does a GI contract have to do with respiratory? Are you truly that dense? Fucking moron.
