someone has a jaded view obviously. this is a great product with tons of potential. plus the marketing team and upper management are investing plenty into this product.

Pot calling the ketlle black much? Can either of you D-bags provide evidence of investment or lack there of? Don't care either way, just want some believable clarity...

Are reps happy here? Seems like a great product and division. Any insight?

Seems like change is in the air for Trellis reps. Hopefully jobs aren't lost but one wonders!

impossible to suck up clot thru a 16 french needle hole

That's why you take it out and use an 8fr guide cath. Now there's a thought!!

I sold that pos for years with much success. How is it doing today? Has dvt market taken off? Has the 6f version taken anyone out yet? Scary device.

How much are reps in this division making? Thanks.

Each rep makes more than the entire product line generates in revenue.

Adios Trellis reps! Good luck to each of you!

Trellis; an example of what Covidien does to a good thing. Hold on EV3 reps. Covidien will take you down sooner or later. Your pay will slowly begin to creep down. Covidien's mantra: buy and destroy! What a mess of a company!

What happened? I almost interviewed about a year ago and was just curious.

Laid off the entire Trellis division Oct 1 2012 and put the device in the EV3 bag. EV3 reps didn't want it and will not promote thrombolysis. More layoffs expected in August 2013. They have already started cross training "certain" people in preparation for the next layoffs. Re-processing ClosureFast catheters is killing a good division. Marketing was totally caught with their pants down on that issue and then tried to scramble to market against it.

Trellis/ClosureFast

Old Trellis reps and clinical specialist that were converted to ClosureFast in October, 2012 slaughter are on the chopping block again for September. Reprocessing has sunk this ship. If they aren't already training you for EV3 division you are history. Just another number as always.

It's already starting. This "company" is the same old Tyco Healthcare that was running amuck ten years ago. Anything goes to make a buck .. Look no further than who's running Vascular now.. Ev3 guys, who anyone who has been around long enough knows that story..

My 3/30/2012 post was/is unfortunately true... "Lots of promise for this 1st generation product + no new investment after bought by COV = a dog" You could say the same about some of the other Vascular products as well.... Buy the division then suck it dry
