    Anyone had him meet any customers yet? What was the response?

    It's really annoying that people talk badly about a decent guy like Ari. He's one of the nicest guys at Valeant and cares about the people he works with. He has done plenty of field rides and met lots of cutomers face-to-face. If work at Valeant you should be happy he is part of the Management team.

    It’s obvious that the folks on this thread haven’t actually met Ari. Probably one of the smartest guys in the healthcare industry. You don’t make it at McKinsey for 20+ years if you’re not a rock star. He is inquisitive, thoughtful and most importantly empowers his people to get stuff done. The anti-Semitic comments are cheap shots and quite repulsive.

    Name the KOLs and how many field rides he has done since Dan left. Dan was meeting with KOLs all the time. Please enlighten us. My guess, it should take only 10 minutes to gather everyone he has met with.

    Heard great interactions with the field, physicians and internal team. Supporting eye care all around. I would let action speak louder than words. We need more like him to support our business.

    Sure looked like him at our launch dinner Thursday night and on the stage Friday. He's doing a good job. We're making good money. Jublia is a dream launch.

    So what happened with the latanoprostene bunod problem at the Bausch facility in Florida that botched up the slam dunk FDA approval? More than one deficiency, according to sources.

    Don't forget that Kellen is being paid an extra $1M cash bonus and another nearly $4M in options as a retention bonus in 2016, in addition to his already overly generous salary and benefit structure. Sometimes you can't pay enough to get this level of poor performance.

    he's been a disaster and a curse on this place since his first day. Look it up. Never deserved the role or the salary.

    If it's true, it's housecleaning. Purging the overpaid, underperforming executives.

    Ari will still win big even if he gets canned at this point. Thanks to "reputable" Joe Papa.
