Big Lou hits the panic button

I love that Lou didn't make it on the call. He made others to do his dirty work.

Why did the company not give the reps any heads up on the change with the copay cards? They are putting us in a bad situation.

All programs on hold, not a good sign.

Looks like the money is running out.

No heads up to the reps is bad. They knew several days before because it takes time to do the tear off sheets. Why did they do this to the reps?
 






$0 copay cards are gone July 1st. The new and improve cards will lower copay to $15. Once you go to zero copay cards and then go back to where patients has to pay your sales will go down. Big Loser Lou strikes again. If you don't believe me just ask your manager about last weeks conference call.

I was not going to do the slow down but I am now because the board needs to remove Lou.

I think I was right this one. To the manager that reply to this post earlier I have two things to say, I was right and you were wrong and bite me you loser

Of course sales are going down but profits will be up. I'm not sure if bonuses were calculated into the $2.2 million loss arising from free rxes in the first quarter, but that is potentially another $400k. This was a crappy program from day one, not Lou's fault, that was embraced by managers and execs looking purely at sales volume. This program should have been stopped dead in its tracks when the bleeding started.
 






I think most people knows we needed to do the change but what reps are mad about is the dumb a$$ move by loser Lou that we were not told until last night that the changes goes into effect today. They knew the change was coming for weeks because it takes time for legal to approve the tear sheets , print and then ship to the reps. Lou is a sorry pile of crap to put the reps in the position we find ourselves in today. Yes I am leaving as soon as I find another job because I need a pay check. I just hope I find something before the door closes at Iroko. Best of luck to all of you in finding a new job.

All this chicken little the sky is falling talk is crap. There will clearly be a sea change here, but don't expect to go anywhere else in pharma and expect things to be any different. Management has put the reps in a tough spit with their customers here. How many reps are going to a get an earful from their customers over rejected scripts.

And I have to applaud Josie for having the nerve to call the management team on the carpet for sticking her with setting up a CC on such short notice. Shame on management for not respecting our personal time and prior schedules on such notice either. I am hard pressed to understand why this couldn't have worked on a slightly longer timeline to give us time to save face. Good and necessary plan, piss poor execution!!!

Very well said; indeed!
 






















































Lou and his old school ways needs to go. If he is left in charge this company will not make it past the summer.

Hey board start looking at the numbers and you will see the slow down is working. If you want the numbers to go back up the replace Lou

You're a useless POS. Stop chirping, pick up your f'ing bag and start selling. If that is a foreign concept to you, go find yourself a better job. Sounds like the free rxes were your only pathway to success. We don't need your pissing, whining and complaining while the rest of us carry whiners like yourself.

Ole man Lou has brought the old micromanage style to Iroko with his Oz crap. Things are going down hill from here. This has nothing to do with the free Rx. If you are so stupid to not see his changes lord help you. The question I have for you how do you dress yourself in the morning?

I guess it's nice to have a practical boss who doesn't believe shit has to roll downhill. If my boss can constructively criticize my performance, I'm all for it. I'm an adult and understand what may make a difference. I'm not a pedantic little prick who is too thin skinned to know when my boss makes sense and when he is just passing shit down. Good luck with your bad attitude. I, as well as most others here, know what has to be done. You leaving would be a great start. Have a nice weekend, ;-).

I am so good there is nothing my manager could do to make me better. I am God's gift to the Pharma industry.

If I left the company would fold. Does your lips get raw from kissing your manager's ass so much?
