GSK Breo contract

How many reps got let go?

 

I was one of the ones let go. They kept 77 reps out of 100. Our last day was Friday, but they are paying us until July 31 which I think is generous. I don't know how good of a gig embedded with GSK will be. Most of my team was praying to be let go. It's a nightmare working with GSK reps because they act like babies and don't want us there. I have never met a more unprofessional group of reps in my life, so I am glad to be freed of it to look for a more mature organization without so much fighting and having to look behind our backs.

 

I'm going to take an educated guess and say that the majority of your GSK "teammates" were...WOMEN. Guys can get along with anyone. GSK Women are (almost) always backstabbing and do not play well with contractors.

 

Is this fake news???
Or are they soon to be told

 

Not fake news. The lay off happened on Friday. The male GSK reps were almost worse.

 

GSK has so many issues internally, wouldn’t be surprised to see them get a class action in the USA at least. Such a mess of a place.

Hope everyone on the contract side is doing well as you can be.

 

Are you saying all of those retained will be or already are embedded?
Thanks for the info.

 

Yes, all of the retained reps are now embedded with Trelegy or Anoro. All of the Syneos Breo managers were let go.

 

Really interested to see how much Syneos does to take care of the reps who were displaced. Can you please share your experience? Many of us on other contracts are watching. Thank you! And best of luck!!!

 

I have colleagues on the GSK contract they haven’t said a thing, doing virtual lunches still and working in PA and VA MD!!
What are you taking about contract ended???

 

The GSK reps were given an email about this on Friday. So they know. The contract is continuing in the sense that 77 of the Breo reps are now embedded with Trelegy and Anoro. Training starts in a week. But the Breo contract has ended. No more Breo.

 

GSK Management never liked the CSO reps. GSK Managers will cherry-pick the reps that they like and all the rest will be terminated. Syneos HR will do whatever the client wants. GSK direct-hire reps will box you all out of offices and throw you under the bus.

 

So the GSK managers were the ones who decided who stayed embedded and who got let go?

 

So far, they seem to be helping many get on other contracts. So we will see.

 

Seriously
Are you guys still here??? Working on our contract. Why

 

The GSK managers had zero input on the decisions.

 

Did the GSK reps have input? I landed in a better spot already. Thankful not to deal with them anymore!

 

Nope!

 

Nope, salary does not equate to real value in the work you "do" or "don't do" as is the case in drug rep sales. But it does make you one more real shallow AH in our culture.
