Your analogy of eat or be eaten comes directly from Lenin. Are you
implying the new game plan is based on a communist strategy??

I, as a senior DM, 22 years and 5 p clubs, agree a Rep has to aggressively sell his or her assets and do personal favors to get a leg up on other reps. There is, as they say, no honor among theives. And there are few bigger theives than Forest reps who fake all those calls
. So don't feel guilty turning in your coworker. Do what you have to do to get ahead of your fellow reps.

The word is another pharma buyout is coming. This means more consolidation, more generically coming, and instability and nervous noted for the reps.

RD here - at office sipping coffee.........this is another nonsense post. There are absolutely NO plans by
Actavis to be acquired by another company. No more layoffs are planned. No more downsizing. Reps doing honest work have NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT. Your DM will brief you onthe sales scripts you need to follow. Have a GREAT day! ! !!!

What do you gain by all the fear mongering?

The layoffs have been going on all summer and fall. but because the weekly numbers are under 100 (3% or less), no fanfare is given. Look at all the people who have been let go just in the past 60 days (sales people need to look beyond your own little bubble) St. Louise, Jersey City, Long Island, NYC, have all been hit hard and silently.

Each week large hand-fulls are quietly let go. NYC was at 440 staff just this past April, now we are down to a little over 200 with many more leaving (we just got notice that we will be leaving the first half of December...with a nice package) Jersey city had over a 1000 staff just one year ago, now they are at around 500 people with a great many (I believe I heard 200) leaving in the December layoffs.

Talented people...that Actavis will lose forever. Talent like those who researched some of our biggest drugs and developed the compounds. You can't get that talent or expertise back. For wanting to remain a well-balanced organization....Actavis sure is becoming generics heavy and branded light. Legacy Forest will be down 70% of staff come this December from just one year ago.....shocking....but this is business!

They are just getting rid of the dead wood

This is great news! Nobody, and I mean nobody, is better at kissing ass than I am! I cleverly put little seeds of doubt about my teammates in my DM's mind at every opportunity! I fake over half my calls, and my DM has absolutely no idea as to what I am doing! It's all too damn funny! I will survive, while others better than i will fall!

Follow this advice, and you will survive. Cut the throats of teammates at every opportunity. Kiss your managers ass the second they bend over. Lie about calls EVERY day to make yourself look good. Volunteer. Trust nobody.

The above advice will guarantee you will survive the next layoff. Follow it to the letter.

You know how well some people have made out who got the last severance package? I don't know if you want to survive. Is it really surviving? More like turning the knife in the wound.

This is sound advice. Even if you plan to leave you should follow this to hone your survival skills. I plan on retiring early in 3 years at age 50. I have no problem doing in any Rep who messes with me or makes me look bad to my DM. Survived 17 years following this method.

I am a RD monitoring this site for the Company. I can categorically deny the 'eat or be eaten' manifesto. It does not apply here at Forest Actavis. We encourage our Reps to report to HR anyone violating P&P. Remember keep it confidential and you have nothing to worry about. The only way to improve our bottom line is to get rid of the dead wood and stragglers who fake the calls and refuse to work their full day.
