CV is the place to be!

Culture is an organizational euphemism for "we don't want to pay you what you're worth".
Be extremely cautious when you hear management speaking to " culture" instead of salary increases, accelerated bonus plans and stock options.
Those are quantifiable, and they're why you get up and go to work.
Keep your "culture" (btw, the only "culture" I can see is anger and resentment toward senior management).
If you want happy and productive reps, try giving them accurate data and reasonable compensation.

amen to this. #truth
 


















It’s the place to be if you like dysfunction, disorganization, ignorance, and a focus on process, rather than actually getting things done. Then this is definitely the place to be. Get ready kids, it’s only a matter of time before we go through this whole reorg thing again. No light at the end of the tunnel here.

Did anyone actually read the Novartis press release about their earnings?
Did you see what Leqvio is bringing in, as it hits its third birthday in a few weeks (as a birthday gift, we'll forget about that 12-month production delay)?
Is there a person associated with this company that would have believed the revenue generated by this medication could be this historically pathetic?
To their credit, they don't seem to waste any time trying to put a positive spin on it.
What a calamitous waste.
 






Novartis spent $9.7 Billion on acquiring The Medicines Company just to get Leqvio.
Through 9 months 2024, Leqvio sales are $129 Million.

“We are excited about entering into an agreement to acquire The Medicines Company as inclisiran is a potentially transformational medicine that reimagines the treatment of atherosclerotic heart disease and familial hypercholesterolemia."

How does Vas continue to keep his job? If not him, someone needs to take the blame for this disaster.
 






Just in case you missed that memo that one of the biggest mail order pharmacies is dumping Entresto, read the writing on the wall. Changes are coming sooner than you think. They’re going to need to lay off, restructure, reorganize soon. Entresto is paying a significant amount of bills for other products like Leqvio that are taking forever to get off the ground. Keep in mind, it’s also going to have to support the launch of pelacarsen. They will try and keep as many people as possible, but we definitely don’t need 2 reps per territory, otherwise 2 reps would make sense if the territories were larger.

If your teammate has left, they’re not filling vacancies, the territories are becoming hybrid territories. I know we have a cardiovascular pipeline, but it’s going to be rocky for a while until the products start to take off. If you are new, and have a family to support, don’t wait around like the folks at J and J. They laid off their entire CV Division. Good Luck to everyone.

Oh, and as far as the A and R team. Someone needs to revamp that side. If they get rid of the ADAR position (that Associate “Director” title has inflated many heads along with rewarded each of them with a wasteful excessively high salary) and have field-facing, district dedicated ARMS assigned to smaller areas, that would be a start. ADAR leadership needs to do a little more baby sitting to ensure they are earning their keep and not sitting on their a$$es at home pretending to work. I’m quite certain that would be a great start to preserve our bottom line till we can get the other products generating revenue.

They will never accept any of the blame. Remember, Duane didn't get fired after the FTO debacle that completely sank the brand. He's still in the building.
That told us everything we needed to know.

Anyone remember when the entire sales force walked out during his speech in Dallas? That was awesome. But not as great as the water bottle everyone got as motivation that week.
