Hiring freeze

Why are we frozen?

 

Let it go! We are Frozen!

 

We are in a hiring freeze because they are evaluating the size/shape of the salesforce for the anticipated launch next year. Who knows how many will be kept or what our new territories will look like? I am not even sure what products we will still be representing.

 

Prediction. Lotemax goes generic - 2 products left in the bag. Besivance is sucking and Zylet at only 15-18% of portfolio, therefore not a huge money-maker for Valeant. Where does that leave the Blue team? I'll tell you. Out of a job. Outside vendor "evaluating" the sales force with the product launches NEXT year. Do you honestly think Valeant will allow 100 reps to walk around with 2 products until that happens? No. Layoffs will happen Nov/Dec which will be a boost to the 4th Qtr numbers. You MIGHT get called back when the product launches. Territories are being evaluated with the thinking that there are too many reps with the few products we have...

 

No comment about the hiring freeze with blue and white teams???

 

Tight lipped at home office. They are not saying anything yet...

 

Man, that is the truth! Run if you can...

 

Oh, not a hiring 'freeze'...a slowdown. Right.

 

What is the time frame on hiring freeze?

 

the consultants are preparing the territories for downsizing

 

Preparing for downsizing with larger territories....

 

who do you fantasize about at this company?

 

When's this BULLSHIT going to happen???

 

wrong thread simpleton

 

Frozen! Confirmed. Buckle down people. Layoffs coming. Yay, Valeant!!!

 

Why would we expand with an optometry sales force, then want to freeze and maybe downsize?!?

 

Looks like we have our answer with the email from RL today. Any predictions or wildly unsubstantiated guesses?

 

Yeah...reread post#24 for your answer. There's the prediction.

What about the launching of new products! The glaucoma arena is quite big and we are much smaller than allergen and Alcon

 

Re: MilkRe: Hiring freeze

We'll be a little late to the game. The glaucoma market is turning all generic.
