2018 Layoffs


It's shitty that you're trying to make people think it's just rumors when it's factual. These are people's livelihoods and 90% of the reps are providers for children. What's wrong with you?? Clearly you're from sales operations and just care about getting the last little sales results before heads go rolling.

I was at the meeting last week and it wasn't easy on any of us RD's. I care about my reps enough to give a heads up.
 
LOL...So nice of our awesome Regional Directors coming on cafe Pharma and calling their DMS to announce the impending doom. Yeah right. yawn...another day in the life of trolls on CP.
 
This is 100% true. Dm here and the original poster is unfortunately correct. Layoffs will occur in January of 2018. 30% reduction in sales force across the board. They told us not to say anything but I think people should know so they can start looking for jobs. Sorry HQ

Yes, it is true - that was a great victory over Iowa.

It's rather sad when Ignorance speaks up!
And how about UT's victory over West Virginia!! Great!
 
All of the managers found out on Friday. They aren’t sure how many will be cut but it will be significant. Wasn’t sure if it will be before or after Christmas but definitely happening. Managers were instructed not to tell the reps so that sales would not be affected.

I just confirmed this information and this is a fact. I think people should be preparing the resumes. I just want to help everyone so no one is surprised
 
We at the HO are implementing a very effective strategy. After laying off a bunch of winey mercenaries, we are hiring straight out of Panera Bread, Subway, Chik-fil-a. We have realized the real value of a Sales position is to regurgitate a couple of facts and provide snacks to providers.

now go make me a sam'wich
 
Who is it that is coming on here and denying what is the truth? Why are you trying to protect this company? There is a major layoff coming and everyone should be planning their future instead of waiting to see how this company will screw you! They have a horrible track record of how they treat loyal, longtime employees and they think nothing of it! My guess is right before the holidays because that would be right in keeping with the cold and calculating company we work for that has no interest in anyone except themselves and their pocketbooks! If you are not securing your own future and planning 2018 with no paycheck from Purdue you are foolish! This company is on its way down the tubes and that is very apparent!
 
It think they meant only you would be cut. So no big loss for Purdue. Happy Holidays

NO layoffs coming! When the LIARS are finally hung out to dry, the employees here will NEVER gain trust such STUPIDITY!
It's amazing that such a couple of Ignorant fools are allowed to say "anything" on this board!

its because the board is anonymous. 100% of these pathetic comments can be seen on every other companies board. Its the bottom feeders and time wasting monkeys that write this stuff. The bigger fools are the people who believe it.

No it’s not the bottom feeders! When there is little to no communication and everyone is waiting for the $hit to hit the fan, people will drink mud from the mud puddle if it’s the only water available! Keep telling yourself this is all bull$hit and when you have egg all over your face when the $hit finally hits the fan as we all know it will, than you can come in here and continue to deny the obvious some more!

Pharma is not a career any more. More like a temp job. Take whatever money you can while you can. It's happening at all the companies. Rep jobs have gone the way of the 8-track tape player. It's over!
 
I think a layoff is coming because our DM is not filling the vacancies “until January” (they could have been interviewing and are not) so this makes me think that another alignment is happening without Purple and likely making Blue/Red territories larger and maybe laying a few people off in areas where numbers are not good.

No, don't be foolish. There will be NO layoffs!! You are reading too much into things!
