No you don't... None of the haters on this board really want it to work out for us. You want it to be a justification that it was a "good thing" that you either didn't get the job or chose not to go for it.

We are guaranteed employment at least through 2015... After that nobody knows. It was confirmed again on conference calls yesterday. They absolutely NEED us to launch this drug... No other salesforce can do it and there isn't time to hire another, cheaper team. Xolaire team is under contract with Novartis and can't carry another drug... Also just received a new indication so they really don't have time. They conformed again that all commitments made to us will be met.... Believe it or not, we will all have at least $85K in the next 4 months... That's a fact!

I am nervous about the long-term future here...can't count on retention, but it will be fun while it lasts!

Will that $85K even cover a years worth of Esbriet as you rip people off?

Husband is a lawyer and yes the contract is legally binding.
We will get 15 months severance if laid off! But that's not going to happen mr jealosy.
Go back to work and stop trying to name people scared . You are an envious fool..
I could not be happier right now
Worst case scenario my old boss already called and asked if I wanted to come back .. That's what happens when you are a top performer.

Yes, and you were probably also a former super model with an IQ of 180. Pretty proud of yourself with the former boss wanting you back (doubtful) and lawyer husband (doubtful). The agreement is with Intermune, not Roche. Once the merger is finalized, that contract is worthless. Oh, I am a lawyer and a race car driver and my wife was Miss California.

I don't know about your old boss, but I know your husband is a crummy lawyer. This from a real lawyer. The contract is null and void with new ownership on Sept 27th. Enjoy fantasy land. Maybe you will get your salary but sign on bonus and stock are done. You now work for a company that will never give you any. You see it's private. Maybe your husband can re-read that textbook?

Hey Einstein... Roche is a publically traded company and we will get Roche stock when the ink is dry on this deal.
 
oh this thread is so funny. If you are here then you know what the deal is and its not bad at all ! If you are not then you are one of the axe grinders who has some f d up agenda and you think you know something but really, you know nothing, and god knows why you would spend your time posting anything at all ..... we are happy you did not come here. thank you !
 
The only thing I haven't heard confirmed since the "deal"
are our car choices. Has anyone confirmed that those will stay the same as what we were supposed to get in our original package?
 
I cannot understand the people who feel the need to come on here and speak about something they know nothing about. What you should be doing is hoping everything we are telling you this company has promised is true because it will only help our industry. If you are not part of this team, stop posting things you know nothing about!

Amen!
 
There is nothing better than working for a small biotech company and the Intermune deal could've been great. We are just stating the facts about Roche. They have a long track record of eliminating workers. Genentech never had layoffs, but as soon as Roche took complete control in 2009, thousands of employees lost their jobs. Maybe things will work out differently for you guys?
 
i cannot understand why people who DID NOT get this job continue to waste there time posting on this thread.. GET A LIFE...someone asked about car choices? if you didn't get the job why are you commenting??? move on!
lets get back to question about car choices? anyone know what genentech offers?
