Looks like Frank, Cedric, George, or the RFC have entered the Thread. You really think Novartis is having a 5 day meeting to talk about pipeline and career opportunities. You could do that on a 2 hour skype call. Just waiting on the what is best for business call to happen in the next couple month. Duane is old school big pharma and hates contract reps. This is what is going to happen. Contract is going down. Novartis will expand, and some of the Amplity people will be able to interview for those jobs, but don't count on being picked over outside candidates. Amplity gets paid everyday you are in the field, so they will say whatever they have to so you don't leave and cost them money until they drop you. You think if they really wanted us it would take until May to get the contract signed. How hard is it signing the same contract you have used for 4 years. If you and your family needs your paycheck and you are not out looking starting today you are nuts. All we will hear from this point on is false promises about one team and expansion that doesn't include us. Do any of you feel like one team or red head step children. Sorry it sucks, but that is the answer. Believe it or not, but it is the truth. Good luck on your job hunt.
