Wow, just wow. Perfect chance for good launch, but ruined by greed. Poor management. Inexperienced sales team, medical team with no muscular dystrophy experience. Once you've been called out by Sanders and Cummings, it's all downhill. Were you trying to fail? You had so much time to prepare, what were you thinking???
Whoa. Marathon sells its drug. Will you still have an income with no drug to sell? Nice choice there, chief. This is what happens when you get greedy with an inexperienced management. Worst launch ever. Or non-launch.
what are you talking about? the drug was approved in march and today ptc therapeutics is buying the drug for $75 million in cash and $65 million in common stock. What does this mean for the sales force??
Congratulations! You also have a big target on your back when it's time for reductions. Good luck getting that elsewhere.
You don't know the industry moron. PTC needs us. I'm asking for a raise. Now go back and get your shine box. Loser.
Why would ptc take any of the Marathon team? They haven't been on the field, no performance measures, haven't done squat to prove themselves. Plus they'll likely drop price, which means your inflated salaries go bye bye. And ptc already has a small sales force. It's not like Marathon team is specially trained; how hard is it to market a steroid?
Well, more like a Sprint for Marathon. Aronin was the original Pharma Bro, before Shkreli helped bring attention to this scheme. Doesn't look like this approach is going to fly as a business model anymore.
aronion stole the var money now the severance is next. He can't let any money go to the people. Greedy. It will catch up to him.
if you hear the names Mike Burke, Jeff Aronin, you need to run. These guys are crooks and make their fortune on gouging patients with tired old drugs. See Ovation and now marathon. What's worse is that they care nothing about the employees they asked to come to these companies. They run the business non-public so they can hide the true valuation, so anybody holding private options essentially gets nothing. They are now trying to screw people out of severance packages because the money they planned to make wasn't there. The two stooges at the top got scared and sold cheap. The Marathon employees did their jobs, but the greed of Aronin and Burke and their poor decisions doomed the company from the start. In the end, employees pay the price. This whole thing is easy for them because they have no soul and they also have a scumbag crooked in-house lawyer named Pat Morris to handle all the nonsense. It's good to be the kings.
Does Marathon still exist? Or did this company go kaput, kaplooie, out of biz? Are those snooty arrogant employees who thumbed their noses at the rest of us now out of a job? Hehehe. Karma.
