<p>[QUOTE="Anonymous, post: 5390188"]Today marked another milestone in the inept leadership of this company. Laying off 50% of the sales force and hoping half the amount can increase marketshare with less share of voice is absurd. The morale of the remaining is at an all time low and the managers have seen how the Vivus upper management treated reps. Giving reps a one day notice and leaving employees without insurance or a car. Many may say whiners are sounding off but would you like for a family member to be told at 400pm today that tomorrow you are without job, insurance , car and we will give you 2 weeks pay if you give us all your information regarding lunches and appointments. </p><p>They showed total disregard for loyal employees and actually hired reps last week with a start date of April 1st knowing that layoffs were in the upcoming week. These unfortunate sales reps are not even qualified for cobra or the 2 weeks severance. Is this the leadership you voted for last year? Do you really think the remaining reps with huge geographies will be working hard or pursuing other job opportunities. The writing is on the wall and today showed the arrogance and the self serving mentality this company has portrayed since Qsymia was launched. I hope for the best for the longs because you are about to lose your lunch. Go to vivus yahoo finance message board to see future is grim.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
