Pure speculation, but if they’re going from 2 CV and 2 PCP per territory down to 2 CV, that’s a 50% cut. They’re saying “but territories are getting smaller so they’ll be more of them”. Well they’re not going to double the number territories! So let’s say at least 30% cut. The losing 1 region means nothing because that doesn’t create more territories, it just puts more geography under each region, but the size of the country doesn’t change! Plus, prior to PCP team being added on, CV’s called on both cards and PCP, and my territory was the EXACT same as it is now, so how much smaller are they really making the territories? I’d say not much or not at all. Duane is basically reverting things back to exactly how they were before he came in and fucked it all up. Side note: hilarious how they said “we are listening to HCP feedback and this is what they are telling us”. Oh really Duane? Who the hell are these HCP’s that you’re getting ahold of on the phone or wherever, and then they’re just saying, “How the hell are you Diane! Sure, I’ll give you some advice on how to structure a pharma company, I have time to chat”. Really? Lol. Yes, all the doctors provided feedback to Novartis and Novartis is just “doing what the customer wants”. Right. Get one on the phone right now. Just one
