    We all knew it was coming. They say 400 from the whole company but not how much of that is sales force. There are 300 reps, Kams, Fam, and all of the corporate workforce. One can assume that salesforce will be chopped in half as a conservative number. Now we just have to listen to a town hall saying that we should be happy and remain focused on our goals. All the same BS nuero reps heard before they were chopped. I just hope there is some honesty and direction for this transition. Everyone knows this was all negotiated during buyout so just tell us whats gonna happen like we are all adults and have lives and families to worry about.

    There are 240 current reps, About 21 KAM's 10 in MD, 30 RD's 15 marketing people etc. 400 employees covers about everyone and it was part of the negotiation. Everyone will be transferred over pretty much so it's a good thing for those wanting to still be a part of the franchise. There may be some eliminated positions that were internal I'm sure we will find out those details soon. If your on a sales team you should feel confident that you wont be laid off.

    What products do they currently have at Novartis that possibly would be added to our bag?

    They have a sales force why would they keep all of you? They currently have durezol (about to go off patent), iilevro (thick goopy disgusting drop doc hate). Then all the glaucoma meds that play in a generic world. And an allergy drop

    Novartis ophthalmics already has a sales force . They didn’t bring a single rep onboard when they acquired Durezol from Serion years ago..... use your head. Novartis reps carry up to 5 products and have large territories, you think they are going to change the way they have been doing it for years ??? They may bring on a relatively small portion of the sales force but the majority of you all are about to find out what happens when you go work for a company( obu) with one drug. Good luck.

    They bought the drug to protect their own team’s viability, not ours! It will be massive, massive cuts on our side since we’re the higher paid division. Don’t listen to the M and J clowns, we are screwed.

    call answered absolutely nothing. Words like immediate, comparable, and think. All ambiguous terms that basically add up to sorry we have no clue whats gonna happen to you.

    Interesting to go back and read this entire thread....I’m not pointing fingers or name calling but it is obvious we were all misled.
