Town Hall Email....Are you on the list?

Matters not how good you are, only how much you cost the company. 90% of stay/go calculation is salary followed by your location. Cresset gold 1 year, bottom feeder the next, talent doesn't matter in pharma b/c it's not about selling, just making noise (share of voice), dropping samples, etc. Formulary drives sales, reps aren't selling anything, talent means little.

This my friends is Pharma! Very accurate post.
 




With nearly everyone at home office being given a pink slip, you would expect a friendly leak here and there right? Take it as a sign. You can hardly send and email from internal takeda to an external gmail account so it wasn’t a “virus”. Don’t be sheep led to slaughter.

I totally believe you. Far easier for this "virus" email/invite to be accurate than not accurate. Somebody had inside information and decided to share. True pranksters would not have gone to this level of detail, and this list is far too accurate looking to be be a phony. HDQ has been cornered by this, their only real defense is to say it's a Virus (nothing to see here) and move on. What are they going to do? Acknowledge it? They certainly aren't going to come out and say, it's true, sorry it got out! Or, it's true, we'll scratch that layoff and re-draw names come end of March.
 




















The real question is how many of you were being proactive and trying to find som else? My guess is less than 5% of you. You’ve sat on your lazy asses hoping to “ride it out”, and soon many of you will be gone, if not now, then later. I jumped in early January and am glad as hell I did! Everyone I talked to was either doing nothing to find something else or just waiting for something to fall in their laps, but they are all still here. That’s what I call terminal laziness!

OMG what a complete tool!

You are a fool. Get over yourself. You will be in the same situation at some point at your new company. You will never outrun this type of situation as long as you are in Pharma.
 
































Don't hate, appreciate! Pearl is accurate. Names for TET-2 will start to trickle out this week and come to a close early to mid next week (26th or 27th). From there you can pretty well guess what happens next, it's bombs away on the 28th!
