Cubist to buy Cadence

you people are ridiculous. So many excuses on why you are not happy. You joined a one product company and were told it would be sold if they could find a buyer. Secondly, this was not anyones first rodeo so it is impossible to believe that you could not conceive the idea of a possible sale. You were told day one no 401 k, no car and limited future but you signed on anyway. now you cry that we might be sold and you wont have a job. Daa!By the way there have been articles written about Pfizer, Hospira, Baxter and yes Cubist with a thought of a buy out.
Dont spew this crap about the bonus or being tricked to believe a 401 or fleet car was coming. if you did you have got to be very, very stupid! from the posts it sounds like may of you are very very stupid. Did you get suckered into buying a mortgage u couldnt afford either?
life happens. get over it. actually keep up the posts as i love the comedy. have you been through a divorce? now that's a party
 






I totally agree with your comments. So many people are so foolish! A buyout is eminent. Just by eliminating the salaries of the current sales force, managerial force, Msl force, etc. Will easily eliminate a lot of the dept. Someone is going to get this drug at a bargain basement price. There will be more resignations in the next handful of weeks as finally there have been some decent open opportunities. No one should even remotely consider themselves safe here. We have no money, zero zero pipeline, will Never get a second drug, our MSL team is made up of losers that were either fired or couldn't get anything else, our fleet program sucks....anything even comparable program-wise, pays for the gas as well, no 401k match, worst insurance in the industry, no talent management that loves to take any and all credit if a rep happens to do well. Also, let us go the he'll home Thursday night instead of waiting till Friday at the national meeting. I havea family to go home to and don't need to go to a cheesy bar and eat horrible food.



I will bet anything your family can't stand you as much as we do: Love, the Sales team and the MSL team. Your wife actually sent a, "thank you", to Randy for extending the meeting until Friday. Please leave, make their lives miserable. Your failure is our fault? Look within son! See you in he'll...
 






This is actually well said. Not like the normal rants.

You are the ridiculous one. All anyone has stated on here were facts. By your own admittance, this was a 2 year gig, but without the promised income. If you are not looking for another job at this point, then you are the biggest moron. There is absolutely no future here.
 






Salary is a promise and a bonus is always a maybe. You knew the role you took. Maybe a big payout but maybe not. 401k, car, a second product in development or co-promote was always a huge maybe (still the case even if not sold)>

If not sold now what are you doing because clearly many have lost nerve, interest,etc
Better move quick to that next interview. Did you read the facts? only 6 months or less. 2 months severance, all reps let go but S and R have secured their big positions (wonder if they included their boss T on that deal)

Seriously, if you are let go mid year none of you cp writers and readers better complain. According to the cp facts you were to be bankrupt twelve months ago. Therefore, all have had 18 months to find something new> do you know how many actually have?

Gosh, all you're mumbling and garbling. You make no sense. What drugs are you on? There is only one definite fact here and that is there is no future. A smart person would be looking for a secure job right now.
 






and that comment defines the arguement. No future here but yet you are still here. There has never been a future here but you dont leave. Other then selling the company and cleaning house how much more of a hint do you need. There was the potential for a future but that dream was erased by early 2011 and that reality has not changed. im not even here.

I'm not even the original poster, but I have to comment on your post. You are the one that seems to have the problem. If you don't like the comments left on Cafepharma then simply don't go online and read them as you are quick to defend Cadence. I don't know what city you are from, but these days it is very hard to find a good quality job. Sure, many of these reps could just take any old sh*t job to get out, but they arnt stupid enough to do that. Its going to take time to find another job and in some city's there isn't much out there at the moment. People have families to support and they just are not going to quit. So take that into consideration. I promise you that there will be more resignations very soon, just not as many as people would like. I also promise you that every smart rep is looking right now, if you are no longer with the company, then I feel even more sorry for you as you should seek counseling. Most people that leave move on...and don't keep surfing the Cadence board.

You were so right!

That would be imminent not eminent.
