Tyrant or Victim: Your choices at Merck

Unless you have the lack of ethics to become the steamroller at Smerck,

you will become the pavement...

It is that simple...Only the sleaziest survive here, and the shit floats to the
top...

nothing can be more true. i have a manager that has no fucking people skills and continues to lead by intimidation. the minute you stand up this pos backs down.

Merck has always maintained a bullying culture. It used to be that the bullies actually did work themselves. It has only more recently become a low-class operation. And voila, it is now an insufferable place to work. Treating its people like hell while hoping to maintain an image that it last had 15 years ago. Anyone with any capability, experience, or achievement has either left or has been shown the door. It is totally without the essential ingredients to turn itself around. If it survives it can only do so by merging with a company that still has core R&D capability and leaving them alone to survive. Cannot imagine Merck having the humility to do that.

"Anyone with any capability, experience, or achievement has either left or has been shown the door"...............yea, and the one's who leave are "sought afters" by other companies. They see what these people bring. So we screw ourselves......cut people who offer the most then we stay on the losing end.....

It's Schmerk, not Smerk! Remember it was a reverse merger. The Sch has to be there to make it not a cheat.
