    Is this factual or hearsay? The Terre Haute plant keeps proclaiming all is well..............sounds like the rumor mill produces better quality than the exubera production line.

    Sorry if I don't respect your input here, but you are most likely a sales rep who has zero knowledge of what it takes to:

    1. Move an entire process
    2. Transfer the knowledge and skill sets required
    3. Re-validate the entire process
    4. Establish all of the specific control parameters around the production process.

    This is plain bullshit, none of the site's top management have moved. That's not to say they won't, but none have yet so get your stuff straight before posting.

    You would move them and convert them to manufacture a more lucrative product. With current sales, Exubera can't absorb one lines worth of cost. So why keep them making exubera?

    ANY process can be re-located given the time and $$ and it appears they have plenty of time.

    Besides, why have a manufacturing site in west bum-fuck Indiana anyway?

    But why relocate a process that:

    1 isn't robust
    2 doesn't make money

    Can't they manufacture another product at the Terre Haute facility?

    They don't have another product to manufacture...that's part of Pfizer's overall problem. I know niche specialty companies with better pipeline.

    Why are they still producing exubera if it is the intention of downsizing? I had a friend from New York just transfer there and he tells me that they were supposed to be bringing in new line equipment. If this is true it looks like he needs some insight onto what is going on.......

    I guess it depends on your perspective and time table...

    Many have left but I guess if you think people didn't know what was coming until the last six months you'd be right.

    I know there were plans to shutdown the 1247/1244 side in 2007 and due solely to Exubera's poor performance that didn't happen. At least Advantage still is profitable.

    Good luck to you and your $20,000,000 a year product Exubera with a $40,000,000 a year budget.

    It is very Pfizer-like to shoot the messenger rather than deal with the reality of what the messenger is saying.

    So whats up with the production lines in Terre Haute? Is the product now considered a total failure and layoffs inevitable?

    Terre Haute will be fine. There will never be a lay off at Terre Haute. Exubera will be a billion dollar blockbuster. Go back to work and don't worry.

    From what I understand there are no plans for layoffs. Of course, no one ever knows about the layoff plans until they are laid off.

    The long term plan is to move all manufacturing, packaging and any other labor intensive function to China. Pfizer is building a complex in Zxing Dou, or Din Phoo, or some backwards cesspool where they will pay a buck twelve an hour and the yellow hord will be lining up for the jobs.

    So if Exubera production is halted, would there be any plans to produce something else there? It is my understanding that several million dollars have been invested into the upgrade of the plant.

    Inhaled THC to keep pfizer reps happy. Management is worried about all the talk of revolution here. If they can't scare you into compliance, they'll drug you into submission. Also, we'll start producing penile implants for Reggie Spizzle wannabe's

    You gotta be kidding, surely Pfizer knows this product is has absolutley no chance of success. Do they think that if they wish hard enough that it will turn into a blockbuster?
