Its been awfully quiet (on the Pfizer contract)...

The axe is coming. Be prepared people.

 

Do you know that for sure or are you guessing? Why have the call last week then that said they have exciting news that Pfizer has the "intent" to extend the contract for "many" of the reps. If the axe was coming for everyone, wouldn't they just have not done a call? I do believe that some people will not be extended past June and it is frustrating that we haven't heard for sure or know when we will, but I think some people will continue on with this contract. Pfizer has to cut costs and the bottom line is that we are cheaper. Most of us are more experienced and work harder than the Pfizer reps too. Most Pfizer reps in my area average about 4-6 calls per day and we are making 8-9.

 

All I know is the All Quiet on the Western Front is not good.

 

crickets.

see what I mean?

all quiet.

 

It is very important to remember that Pfizer just acquired a lot of new reps with King. These new King Pfizer reps are being trained right now on Celebrex and Lyrica. Do you really think that Pfizer needed to add a large additional quantity of reps or are the legacy King reps going to replace the contract?

 

Well, they don't tell us anything. I mean, we have about 3 months until we find out, and they haven't confirmed anything good or bad.

Its not a good sign.

 

Guess is that in with the King out with the contract. New training for king makes me think this. No new training on Flector or any new news is bad. Closed town hall with questions on everyones mind. Do we have a job after June. Over.....

 

P4 is Pfucked. It's all but over. Upcoming meetings should be very intresting. Please ask the questions about status of the contract and come back and share the spin with us all. Hold their feet to the fire.

 

We don't even have a real manager and we are lied to repeatedly. Why are they refusing to tell us anything. Typical of this contract. Work the reps till they either quit or get put on a plan. Our fill in manager is an idiot, but obsessed with plans to make himself look good. Pss
management is a joke.

 

Dallas DM is a jerk!!!!

 

Bag A will be gone in June. Perhaps Bag B as well. However, They may keep Bag B until the end of the year. But that is it!

Rollovers, really don't exist. If a new contract begins, as ours ends, we have to apply and interview just like anyone else.

Please don't be scared. Just continue to apply elsewhere.

Good Luck everyone! God Bless you and your families!

 

Bag B will be replaced with the King reps. Each team only needs one maybe two reps to sell celebrex, lyrica and crap flector patch. Even the Pfizer Bag B reps will move over to A to sell viagra and spiriva and a bunch of crap dogs that compete w generics (pristique, aricept, premarin, toviaz, chantix). We are GONE, most King reps will be GONE and even some pfizer reps may be history too.

 

Pdi Pfizer contract was extended until the end of the year but we were told yesterday June 8th is it just a heads up

 

Are you saying that you are with PDI or Publicis? Also are you saying that you were told the p4 contract would end June 4th?

 

I mean June 8. I am assuming that you mean the PDI contract.
