I too am hearing this from multiple sources, including from mgmt leaders. This is a DONE deal. Take it to the bank. Bard has a lot of leakers and disgruntled employees, including mgmt board members that share confidential information. There is no such thing as something confidential in this company. Take it to the bank. This will happen so the national sales meetings can be aligned with the new products and sales teams. I heard the Board of Directors voted on this just a few days ago. While it is an obvious move and yes it is mentioned every year, we reps have too many call points that overlap with our sister divisions. It has to happen and it will. Now if they can figure out why the hell Tim Ring and slick John Weiland makes $18M dollars a year while we lay off people, I would love to know. Jimbo Beasley is licking his chops at crushing the weak reps. Be afraid. Be very afraid.
