Former Novartian - what/ when?

Left Novartis a few years ago, and have lost track of some of the people I used to work with... I followed some of the cuts over the past few years, but hadn't heard about what obviously went down this week...

How many were cut, and when? Was it a particular sales group (Geigy, etc?)

The last 4 years have been crazy... I don't think anyone is left from the pod I used to work with!

Good luck to all of you, there are many options out there.

Yes, there are many options, just none that dont involve a 70% pay cut!
 




Be glad you left a few years ago. I did too and am so happy at another pharma co. At NVS, I got stuck with a horrible FLM. They need to do a better job with management development!
