Home Office Here....







Not just ‘executives’...EVERYONE except field sales.

Sales is who generates revenue. Support positions do NOT generate revenue. They do NOT have a quota/goal to meet and they should NOT ever be receiving anything but an agreed upon salary. Bonus should be for performance in making the company money only. Corporate office has been immune to layoffs for years while running this place in to the ground. Paying them a bonus is ridiculous. They shouldn't win President Club trips either.

ARE YOU TRYING TO TELL ME DAVEY SUNSHINE DOESNT DESERVE TO GO TO PRESIDENTS CLUB?

Support is who keeps and sustains the revenue and cleans up your messes. Get over yourself.

I hope Teva doesn't really have reps as dumb as you. How much money could sales make without promotional material, product information, medical information, rx coverage, rx information, market access, patient services, IT, hardware, software, legal team, and most importantly, products. A 3rd grader could memorize a sales pitch and go Dr. to Dr. and do better than you(not all reps, just you). And they'd probably get better access because they are cuter than you. P.S. No disrespect to reps that understand that sales is just one piece of the puzzle.

I agree with the previous poster. Sales isn't the only piece of the puzzle, but they are the only ones with a quota who actually sale product. Support is essential and should have decent salaries but not bonuses. Presidents Club should always be for sales performance. I rarely use the way overblown sales pieces and I am sure I am not alone. I sale with the PI and only when it is needed. I rarely need any of the expensive materials this company spends millions on to get the job done. We understand you guys need to justify your existence, but you aren't as crucial as you need to believe.

DAVEY SUNSHINE IS CRUCIAL TO EVERYONES SUCCESS!
I hope for his families sake he isn’t let go. Can you imagine him in an interview ?

Boo hoo, I have always been immune to layoffs and now there is a chance that the fat cat support and commercial operations may get cut. Don't they know how important we are? My job is always stable! I am not some lowly sales rep, my work matters!

If reps don't need anything except PI, then reps should only be given what they need(paper PI). Do away with all unnecessary expenses. Do away with the unused/non-productive technology devices and software. Shut down all of the unneeded supporting departments(who by the way do have goals and performance reviews). Of the people left, stop bonuses for everyone. Build them into salaries and stop the bonus concept. Why should anyone get a bonus for doing the job they were hired to do? If they don't meet goals without explanation, eliminate them or don't give pay increases. Stop awards trips for all since it is an unnecessary expense. And since reps spend 95% of their time not talking to prescribers, which is a lot of wasted time, shift away from that model and start getting the information to prescribers in a more efficient way.

All that hysteria you just wrote there would be great if all of the other pharma company's followed your thought processes champ, but they don't, and they won't. Reps are necessary as long as the model is reps across the industry. Look, we are sorry that you have just finally realized that your job too could be on the line. We realize you HO people have never been touched before and think it isn't possible, but take it like a man and stop all the crying!

Not true. HO lost around 70 jobs earlier this year when we did the earlier layoffs. Call Center alone lost around 45.

Shows how important those jobs were LOL. We didn't even know they were gone.

Same goes for 60% of marketing and other HO jobs-if and when they are eliminated they wouldn't even be missed.

And that goes for you Carney!

And we honestly didn't know about or feel your cuts either. You are so self important....LOL
 






Seriously people, grow up! Obviously these are uncertain times but anyone with a brain knows that in order to be successful you need good sales people in the field and good support at HO. Successful companies have both that work together for a common good.
 






Hey can someone from home office be straight up with us lowly field reps? Are there going to be more cuts or not? I have a family to protect. No BS replies, just some insight.

Unbelievable !
Even more, you sill think that ANY CORPORATION IS GOING TO KEEP YOU IN THE LOOP! CORPORATIONS DO WHATS BEST FOR THEM! THEY
DONT OWE YOU ANYTHING AND YOU DONT OWE THEM ANYTHING!
Get off your hump and street looking for a job!

You are not protecting your family by standing bye and waiting for Teva. Previous post was correct. It would not Be wise to rely on Teva or any other big company for anything. We are all contract workers whether you want to believe it or not.
Start looking out for yourself and your family by not expecting anything from Teva. Stop crying and playing the victim card and be proactive.
Get a side hustle gig in the future that way if and when you get laid off you aren’t at the mercy of the company. .
You are only a lowly rep of you make yourself one.
