    Ireland-based Allergan, maker of Botox, expects the move to save it $300 million to $400 million this year. It anticipates the changes will cost $125 million, mainly due to severance expenses, the bulk of which is expected to be recorded in the fourth quarter.


    The company said in November that it would undertake a cost-cutting and restructuring program, with CEO Brent Saunders telling analysts on an earnings call that Allergan was still in the planning phases but it saw "potential opportunities to become even more efficient."

    Shares of Allergan have fallen more than 20 percent in the last 12 months. They were up 1.1 percent midday Wednesday.

    Yep, the savings don't add up do they. $3 billion hit in 2018 and 1000 jobs is supposed to make a fucking dent? HA! only if the average salary for a PCR rep was $3,000,000 a year! fuck these assholes!

    Cut a the lazy reps who never leave their homes and don't do shit. So many of these gals are the type that drive around and do drop ins for a few hours a day. Cut 3,000 and boost that stock.

    WHO the F*CK do you think you are?! I see you’re the same ^sshole that posts all over and accuses wonen of being lazy and never leaving home. Let me clue you in: does 35-40,000 miles yearly count for anything? And so many miles on an airline I have “status?” Obviously you’ve never carried a bag. You don’t know sh*t.

    Time to cash in your worthless shares, loser, get a life and get off CP.

    Speak for yourself fool. Calls are made but without belief that it matters. When upper management gets their shit straight work might have purpose. Bafoons are in charge asshole. "Gals"?????? No.
