Intermune

























Please make the sign-on and RSU money last...unemployment sucks.

Roche is laying us off Jan 1st from an internal source. There will be no stock from the new company. They are reconsidering the buyout too as a clause makes it possible to take away the new hire grant since we were not employed when the deal was made final. That's why they got it down before Sept 2.

Who is reconsidering? Surely not.

Yet another attempt to scare those of
us who are joining the company.... FYI... The deal is not even going to be completed until October! Nice try! We are good through 2015, after that who knows?
 












Don't worry you will have plenty of time to make your own tinfoil hat genius! Everyone new a buyout was coming enjoy big pharma or the unemployment line. Better hope your 50k lasts!
 






I'm sure the Xolair and Pulmozyme reps are already studying their Esbriet training materials. Very surprised if you even get a chance to launch this thing in Q4. Dumb move...

Right! First, we wouldn't actually start the job... We started today! Now, we won't launch the drug.... Again you will be proven wrong! Sorry you didn't get the job, but take your bitterness somewhere else!
 












Typical Roche move over the years...


The M&A activity has pharmaceutical employees nervous. A large number of layoffs over the past decade has already forced many big-pharma workers to seek jobs elsewhere.

Some have found it hard going. Scott Nass, 49 years old, lost his job as an account manager for Roche Holding AG ROG.VX +0.07% in Nutley, N.J., in 2009, when Roche gained full ownership of Genentech Inc. After a two-year stint helping Princeton University raise money to support academic research, Mr. Nass is now a substitute high-school teacher and looking for full-time work.

Mr. Nass said he finds it hard to get back into the health-care business. "I am quite bitter. It's been a painful process and I am disillusioned as to how decisions are made in the industry," he said.

Others have remained in the industry—often finding work in smaller drug companies or in contract research organizations, which conduct clinical trials for pharmaceutical companies.

Excellent you won't know- we at Genentech/Roche have little use for your management team. We may keep some of the reps.

Most of your managers are re-treads that could not make it elsewhere!
 




































Isn't the honeymoon period great?

Seriously, if you still can't get over not getting hired and you carry that much rage and resentment you should seek professional help. I say this with the kindest intentions. Really. Take a look at yourself and all your posts on this board. Something ain't right inside your head. Best of luck and I hope you get whatever is going on in your head straightened out so you can move on with your life.
