Major layoffs in primary care based on 2013 where you fell in basket, hand raising options will be available- effective July 1st- HR email later today- reduction in real estate footprint - teams will be larger- CTls and Dcos reduced as well
 




































Random thoughts: This company has deteriorated significantly over the past few years. The members of our "safe" diabetes team are a laughing stock with the HCPs because they can only repeat the "key core messages" (I tried to explain to one of the that saying key and core is redundant but when the head is empty....). I've watched very good reps harassed to the point that they are broken. Sad to say but the only reason I can think of is that they are true professionals respected by the customers not "flirty little things". So I can pretty accurately guess who will stay and who will leave and because of these choices I also predict that this company will fail at the next few launches then go bankrupt or become part of another company within the next three years.

They're less costly and now, well trained. That's winning combination in the O'economy. We might all be moving into the same boat.

Ship Ahoy!

What the hell does Obama have to do with this? This company has been going downhill for at least the last 10-15 years. We are where we are because we did not make the right investments back then and have little to show for all of the money spent on R&D, mergers, acquisitions etc.
don't be an idiot. No one has patience for idiots during rough times.

Who says Inventiv is staying~ We pretty much have been told that we will learn 6/23/14 about our last day being 6/30/13. Doesn't sound like we will have jobs after 6/30/14.

Who knows how many of B, C, E staying? could go with the A & D rep per doc and that's it. (Seemed like this was the plan last fall when the D's and B's switched to full-time dedicated to DIA team. The Resp DF were all spun off into their own group then too.) Some managers were switched at that time too (from Athero to DIA). I think your DIA CTL is likely to be the remaining CTL.

If any job shares remain there will be a huge legal battle. Heard they will get notified in a few weeks to decide who stays and who goes. One (the best) share will be offered the job full time. If they reject its open season for the spot. No more two fers spots, time to get real.

Lets see how long this post lasts. LOL

Look, even in spite of all of Merck's misgivings, you cant ignore the fact that our great leader (and those in power that support him) has enacted the most economically destructive, anti-business, job destroying law that this country has ever seen. When the Obamacare bomb finally detonates (the fuse has just been lit) the true horror of this socialist architects wet dream will be felt by everyone. Innovation and excellence in healthcare will be a distant memory. But hey, if you can find a doctor that hasn't thrown in the towel, you can use your overly priced Affordable Care Act insurance to use on substandard care that the rest of the world enjoys. I guess freedom means having the right and the stupidity to vote nitwits in office that will take that freedom away

You said it!

Spot on!

Anyone who denies the reality of this disastrous change to healthcare and the US business environment is purposely choosing to ignore reality......
