Thoughts?

 

Do you think this label change and us buying AZ or forest will force Pfizer to postpone the scheduled layoffs? We sell Pfizers biggest drug, i really think they need us more than any other sales force.

My manager told me not to worry last week, now i know why.

 

Hot off the press from my managers weekly call with her RM: because of this label change, not only will the layoffs be postponed, but they're anticipating having to hire a new division of 500-600 reps and 45-55 DMs .

 

That is awesome news! I hear we're getting Trovan and Bextra back and will probably need at least 1,000 reps and 100 managers to handle the workload!

 

Your manager is a lying asshole.

 

Thanks for reminding me about these two colossal screwups.
Pfizer at its best...... Screwing up.

 

And Celebrex has had its patent extended until the end of time... Meaning no layoffs until no sooner than 2112.

 

BBox remains.

 

So I guess they don't need that new division with 500-600 reps and 45-55 DMs.

 

If you honestly believed that the FDA was going to remove the boxed warning, you were smoking some strong stuff my friend.

 

Nope.

 

I guess no one recognizes sarcasm anymore. How can anyone believe Pfizer would have an expansion even if the BB was removed.
