If you launched Brintellix and were randomly given a low product weighting during its launch but put 70% of your effort into it for the first quarter as was instructed by corporate; you may have a legitamat lawsuit against Takeda. If 1. You had a low weighting on Brintellix and 2. did very well in its launch and 3. (Most likely) didn't do as well on your other higher weighted product(s) due to the time expenditure required by Takeda on Brintexllix, you received a lower bonus at the much benefit of Takeda. Takeda's written compensation plan which is a legal written contact is supposed to pay bonuses based on success. Takeda purposely had lower weighted Brintelix Reps put full focus into it knowing they wouldn't have to pay high bonuses for high success. There was a tremendous amount of pressure on Takeda to prove to Lunbeck and the pharma community that it can successfully launch new products. It's long term succeeds depends on winning future launch promotions. Therefore, Takeda had to have each Rep, regardless of weighting, pushing it full time for the launch. Unfortunately, Takeda wasn't willing to pay for that success. With this being said, you as a Representative can stand up to Takeda and let them know this was wrong and illegal by filing a lawsuit. Takeda clearly breached it's written compensation plan! I am not an attorney. I am a Takeda Rep!
