VIIV EXODUS OF EMPLOYEES

[anonymous]

Everyone is leaving. Not getting paid commission. Working asses off and constantly hearing 2DR suck. It’s all about PREP. The people you have that are long term employees get shit on and can’t interview. No development opportunities. Leadership is weak and unattached. Upper management is nowhere to be seen. Stay away from Viiv. PREP will be a good place for 2 years. Management sucks

Husband interviewed for territory rep spot & afterwards he said something seemed off like Director never would address elephant in room which is Gilead’s hold in market & high turnover as he’d be the 3rd or 4th Dovato rep in same territory. He withdrew. Seems Dovato is hard sale with Docs.

It’s not just an exodus from Viiv. The VBU is a crap show. Mass exodus from there over the last year.

Dovato a hard sell is an understatement- Gilead kicks our ass. We beg for scraps, daily. The only worse spot in HIV is selling CAB.

you have horrible leadership! Like the bucked tooth vermin Schwartz. The person who withdrew, made the right move!

In my territory, Gilead’s antics are slimy & sketchy at best so that’s another thing to deal with trying to get docs to write drug. Not taking anything away from their product but I’m not going down the non compliant road to sell Dovato. Not happening.

Me neither - Dovato isn’t worth it. Actually, None of these 2DR are worth it - they are all dogs. Just do my job and get a gift of a prescription every once in a while.

Getting your ass kicked with crappy and gimmicky products and now blaming Gilead for “slimy & sketchy antics!?!?!” Asking for a friend, wasn’t it GSK that was slapped with the largest fine ever given by the FDA??? Around $3B if I remember correctly? Gilead has never paid a single cent in FDA fines nor has it EVER operated at any time under a CIA. NEVER!!!!! Of course we would never want the facts to get in the way of your opinions. Spare me with the “that wasn’t ViiV but GSK” bullsh!t. ViiV is GSK....OWN IT!!!!! ViiV hasn’t delivered a decent molecule since Tivicay and that wasn’t even created by ViiV scientists. Now you’re out here lying about the strength of your lousy 2DRs one of which has 3TC as a significant component. The other is a painful 2 ass shot regimen WITH documented resistance. Really!?!?!?! ViiV is currently a desperate and laughable organization.

not sure what fine you are referring to that had anything to do with the HIV division. Gilead is involved in some serious patent law suits with the government as well as several other lawsuits for lies and scandals. Gilead is far from innocent and far from NEVER having issues. The biggest coverup was switching 3 TDF products to TAF BIK - why there werent tdf issues? Now 2DR pipeline and copromote coming with a lot of $ being thrown at doctors. Just look at sunshine payments Gilead sparkles loud and clear as the highest payments to physicians. Or Gilead just steals high volume doctors and providers to work in house - slimy you don’t say?
Dovato and CAB have a place in the market and deserve credit for the GOOD they’ve done. Problems will roll when everyone is on one product. People are also leaving Gilead because of the Roche leadership changing the company to be a real pharmaceutical company and people don’t like doing things the right way. So go cloud up your own site with your black cloud overhead. Viiv isn’t perfect the leadership sucks and so does Gilead’s.

The leaders at Viiv stopped caring the minute they stopped allowing development movement within so guess what -we don’t care anymore either! Can’t wait to leave. Met some cook people but also met some lame leaders who don’t know what they are doing. Trying to turn Viiv into Gilead not what the people want or need. Be original

The fine was in July 2012, 3.1 billion. Oh yeah GSK plead guilty too. I got a nice chunk of it for turning GSK into the government. I haven't forgot I'm still spending my bonus! HA ha.. Hey Schwartzy get your teeth fixed yet??

I don’t know of one pharma company over last 20 years that hasn’t incurred FDA’s wrath, justified or not. ViiV/GSK & Gilead both have got wrists slapped folks so let’s not kid ourselves. I’m not delusional to think GSK/ViiV is perfect by a long shot but neither is Gilead and that’s with all product portfolios. I got to hand it to Gilead because they put up numbers and some, not all, reps do things that would get most fired plus put HCPS at HUGE risk. TX, GA, FL Gilead reps have crossed the line so far they are in the next town. It’s not just HIV, HEP C way dirtier. Not gonna lie, I’d kill to have all top prescribers as speakers/KOL in my territory. Those Gilead reps make $$$. It’s whatever you can live with.

Fact is, ViiV went all in on 2DR, and the patients, Provider’s, and competition called their bluff. It cost ViiV/GSK Billions! Time has proven it to be a terrible decision, one of the worst in the history of industry. It’s crazy we still have a multi-billion dollar drug in Triumeq, after acknowledging how poor abacavir is for patients. We should have stuck with Triumeq with a different 3rd agent. Now we battle our competitors to capture the rush to change patients off Triumeq.

Honestly, Gilead had a similar decision around the same time. Instead of bailing on Truvada, they improved it. Conversely, that has proven to be one of the best decisions in the history of this industry. Biktarvy alone will be a $10 Billion dollar drug this year (worth more than the entire GSK/ViiV HIV portfolio!

Anyone still at ViiV/GSK who had anything to do with this decision should have been fired years ago.

“Had nothing to do with HIV Division?!?!” What a loser reply! News flash: ViiV is OWNED by GSK. A lot of GSK kiss ass losers occupy roles throughout ViiV. Stop kidding yourself, you’d give a lung to be at Gilead over ViiV. All the other crap you noted is conspiracy theory jargon and total nonsense. Your hopes are based on a lawsuit ViiV will not win???? The fact that your hopes for a future hinge on Trumpyesque lawsuits says it all!!!!!

This is extremely accurate. It was like Biden sitting at the table with Russia, Mexico, China, Iran, and Israel. All of them call his bluff on his terrible decisions, every time.

The people you have that are long term employees get shit on and can’t interview. No development opportunities. Leadership is weak and unattached. Upper management is nowhere to be seen. Stay away from Viiv. PREP will be a good place for 2 years. Management sucks

Not sure why you think PrEP is the place to be. The pills work and there are now generics. Good luck with TWO pains in the butt - getting insurance to cough up paying, and patient's sore butt cheeks.

With the abysmal performance of Dovato and Cab, I’m shocked how many of us still have jobs.

Its one shot and superior data and doctors and w want it

pills don’t work that well because people don’t take them- especially with this 2,1,1 oh just 4 day a week or don’t worry about 7 days a week push. That seems like more irresponsible Gilead bullshit

I hope you are right, because they sure the hell aren’t using 2DR for treatment
