What if Tornier never got acquired?

Everyone good left Tornier after the merger. Sad reality.

 

Not true at all. Yes, people have left, but maybe it was time for them to move on. Innovation has not stopped. The lore and longing for the old Tornier rests amongst all of those who cannot let it go and troll this site. Move on folks, move on.

 

Oh come on Vince, you jerk off to Hodorek's picture every day

 

Who doesn’t?

 

Good point!

 

Tornier has let go many sub par sales personnel. As you view their posts on here, it's easy to see why they were tossed,

 

Did they let all the R&D and marketing people go as well?

 

No, the Tornier machine is running lean, but running well. New faces, yes. Less arrogance and an eagerness to learn. Not know-it-alls and resting on their laurels anymore.

 

This is hilarious. The 'Tornier machine' is running on the backs of the product pipeline that was created by no one that is currently there along with Steve Kaplin dragging UE to growth. The product pipeline is the heart of a growth med device company, and Tornier lost it's heart all at the same time just over a year ago.

 

Heart? Plenty of heart. Why don't you try FH Ortho, the home of washed out Tornier formers. The past is gone, baby. Get on the new Wright, with Tornier Technology! On ward and upward.

 

Haha that is hilarious.

 

your stock isn’t very “upward”

Old faces have the relationships. It’s funny the “new wright” seems to me like a bunch of folks who watched others build business. Bunch of coat tail hoppers who by default think it’s their time to shine. Lead by toxic slime. It’s no wonder you can’t break $20.

 

We can’t break $20 because no one has the balls to tell the executives that they are grossly overpaid and our hub system is causing enormously excess inventory and costs. We are lucky to still be in business like this and all it’s going to take is UE to dry up and Kaplin focusing on another product.

 

Agree, these hubs are the biggest shit show to hit the medical industry. Get Butthead Buttner and Burrowing Burrows out of the equation, and possibly things MAY change. Again MAY....I deal with the New England hub on a regular basis and I would say the past 4 years have been a living hell. New people came in and completely destroyed it

 

Come on man. You're at Paragon now and your hub is currently ran by a 7+ year sales rep with the company. Stop your complaining just because you have to deliver your own stuff now. I really think this whole board is just a bunch of New England ortho people.
