"Lilly isn't laying people

"Lilly isn't laying people off in droves, their laying people off in drips and drabs. 49 every Friday was the norm for a year or so IIRC. 50+ requires reporting to the city and State, 49 can be kept a secret, just make severance packages dependent on silence.

Personally, I'm looking forward to a MC implosion."

What is an MC implosion?

Werner von Braun would say it

Well then get on with your

Well then get on with your "life" and stop insulting people who are just trying to start a conversation.

no, that's because you are

no, that's because you are replying to your own posts. Gotta keep those Biofind advertising revenues up somehow.

Yeah. I lost my F$cking

Yeah. I lost my F$cking house A$$h0L3! These Pfizer clowns get the golden parachute. Worked my A$$ off for a cardiovascular project, got laid off, project dies in Phase II 6 months later. I lose my house. No winners here. Thanks John and CLOWN SHOES. I did my job, you didn't do yours! Rot in HELL! Oh let's buy another company for its pipeline... That will solve Pfizer's woes. No it didn't and it never will for any big pharma. STOP F$CKING with the organization and invest in long-term research. Lilly doesn't seem to be laying off people in droves. Lilly might be a great place to work. I'll never know, been trying to get in there forever... THE PFIZER TAINT...

Easy for him to talk. He

Easy for him to talk. He walked away with a shitload of money. His career and future earning potential wasn't destroyed like many of us under him.

This guy, LaMattina, says he

This guy, LaMattina, says he is not an apologist for the Pharma industry? Bullshit, that's all he is doing.

Added due to the ineptitude of the OP

Nothing here we did not know

Nothing here we did not know already. He says that the mega mergers may not have been a good thing. No kidding!! Everyone in the industry, who actually did science, new they were just short term fixes for the accountants, and destroyed the scope for discovery. I do not think he has any right to be heard given his and Pfizers record!
