Sure. They've been around forever and are well-documented. Everyone knows how they behave, for better or worse, and use them accordingly. They represent most of the dollar volume for the Osteohealth reps and it's a crushing blow to their bottom line. We'll have to wait and see what becomes of this turn of events.
The sales force will be dissolved. They have not provided any value for a while now under the new leadership
I doubt they dissolve the sales force but they certainly will have to scale back to 2003 levels. Being able to focus on Gem and colla products might actually help them grow those products if they keep the right sales people. But as long as DG is in charge, that is highly unlikely to happen. He'll be more worried about entering notes in Siebel.
They still own Gem and need someone to sell it. They already way overpaid for it. They can't just eat it.
Moving to a small contract sales force in 2012. This is the pharma way. Announcement to be made shortly. Sorry
They will have a smaller salesforce but it won't be a contract salesforce. They've always had small teams so it would make no sense to go outside the company to start one.
