Age Discrimination. Beginning in 1986, Paul Rangel was a sales professional for pharmaceutical company Sanofi- Aventis U.S., LLC (S-A). Rangel had satisfactory performance reviews until 2006, when S-A issued new expectations guidelines with sales call quotas and other standards that he failed to meet. After two years of negative performance reviews, Rangel-who was then more than forty years old-was terminated as part of a nationwide reduction of sales professionals who had not met the expectations guidelines. This sales force reduction also included younger workers. Did S-A engage in age discrimination? Discuss. [ Rangel v. SanofiAventis U.S. LLC, 2013 WL 142040 (10th Cir. 2013)] (See Employment Discrimination.)
