What's going to happen to the Novartis contract?

experience??? Isn’t that the whole point of working the contract for almost 2 Years now... If you don’t have the experience now what is their twisted definition of experience?

 

I think they're looking for experience calling on cardiologists, which pdi reps have not gotten on this contract. Unless you have prior cardio experience, I doubt you'll even be considered.

 

I think the experience thing is bullshit. The PDI rep that APPLIED had prior cardiology experience. The ABL simply did not want that person. The PDI that was HIRED
was a former NVS rep. That the facts jack!

 

its all a shame....get over it. You are paid 40% less to take $$$$ Daily ....your RC tells you daily that they are going to roll you in and you buy it!!! You are a human punching bag and like it!!!

 

I have no interest in being rolled over. Right now I’m a part time slave, not a full time slave for NVS.

 

Novartis only meetings being scheduled with Reps, ABL's and Regional Directors.

Tick tock, tick tock.

 

When are these meetings taking place? Are they at the district level? What's your source for this information? Please share, as many reps incomes will be effected.

 

The meetings are taking place on a district level starting next week. ABL, Regional Director and Novartis reps only - PDI was not invited for whatever reason(s).

 

What states or region is having these meetings without the PDI reps?

 

This is not true.

 

Which areas of the country? If this is true, cite your source, please.

 

The East and source is a Novartis Rep and Manager.

 

"The East" is quite a vague reference. Thanks so much for the sound, reliable information.

 

Okay, so if contract for CV sales force is extended or cancelled when would be a time period this would be announced?
Should I use up the personal days or roll the dice that this contract continues. I know no one really knows but some of you out there are closer to what is happening at headquarters.

 

No one knows for sure. Don't believe a lot of the bs on this site. If you need to take a day off, just don't use your vacation days. Use your personal days instead.

 

Cedric said negotiations for a contract extension were to begin in February. Doesn't mean we'll hear anything soon though.

 

PDI will pay u out for unused vacation days if they layoff.
Personal days must be taken by the time contract expires! Always use personal days first....
