Nov 9 - Beginning of the End

There are regions/states/territories that need to worry about this re-org talk ALOT more than others. Perhaps the people on here with the glass half full attitude are in those less concerned areas.
 












What are you suggesting that I am naive about? My post was in regards to layoffs and layoffs only, right? I don't disagree that the BU is going through a difficult time, that will be difficult to overcome especially with the talent that has left the company. My Idea that Shire will overcome this, makes me naive or a Kool-Aid Drinker, right? Ok, ill take that.

But again, my post in regards to LAYOFFS shouldn't lead you to be believe that I am naive. It just means I know more than you do regarding layoffs, where they'll be, and more importantly where they WON'T be.

Your gonna be stunned when you get your displacement package
 




































I have seen what I need to see to know who needs to worry or not. I'm not going to reveal source, so don't ask. RD's will also see some change, but obviously not the level of reps. If
You're curious, tell me region. I'll try to help.

Thanks for helping get the back on track.. Don't want to be too specific but south US
 






Anyone can look at things half full or half empty...many on this board are the type that look at this half empty and that is your choice. But my choice is to look at things half full even through these tough times. Shire has had tough times in the past with the plant blowing up when we sold Adderall, Concerta launching before Adderall XR, Straterra was lauched and supposed to take the company out of business, Focalin XR was launched said supposed to take a huge share as well, moving our company from Kentucky to Philly, changing to customer sales model from the traditional script apporach, 5 expansions, the patent running out on Adderall XR and panicking going on until we bought New River whcih had Vyvanse, etc. All of these things that occured their were people like a lot of you on this board that said the same things...Mark my word...we will overcome anything and be better for it

This is just a few of the challenges the company has seen over the past 15-20 years...I want to be with people who face these new challenges in the marketplace with this same optimism and so if that means a few bumps in the road over these next few weeks then so be it....GO SHIRE!


5 expansions is a negative thing?

"a few bumps in the road over these next few weeks?". I'll have you know that this will affect some people (and their spouse and children) for more than a "few weeks"!

The south will experience much less of the burn than the north. This is based not only on access, which we know is alot better in the shout, but alsoanaged care and congestion of reps. Are there vacancies within your region? If you mapped out your territory and pinned out your offices, how far apart are re two furthest points? Where do you live in comparison to these points?
