Now there are over 1100 wrongfultermination lawsuits at Amgen. They all didnt fit.

The point isnt who has them...just that you can't beat them...they are in stone....also the 11,500 staff members that were hire from 2001 and 2005 all had arbitration clauses. We know not even staff member has one...

 

YES, YES, YES....arbitration can be moved to trial in federal courts.

MEMORANDUM FOR
REGIONAL SOLICITORS
ASSOCIATE SOLICITORS

FROM:
EUGENE SCALIA
Solicitor of Labor

SUBJECT:
Consideration of Employment Arbitration Agreements

The Supreme Court's decision earlier this year in EEOC v. Waffle House, Inc., 122 S. Ct. 754 (2002), affirms the government's ability to proceed with litigation on behalf of individual employees even when the employees have agreed to arbitrate employment disputes with their employer. Waffle House is a welcome affirmation of the government's litigation authority and its unique role in enforcing the law. The Department must balance this authority, however, with what the Supreme Court has called our "liberal federal policy favoring arbitration agreements." Moses H. Cone Mem'Mosesl Hosp. v. Mercury Contr. Corp., 460 U.S. 1, 24 (1983).

SC027704 DARCY M JENSEN VS AMGEN, INC 9/26/2000 Civil - Unlimited PI/PD/WD - Other AMGEN, INC (Defendant)
Gold digger for Amgen money......this was a farcee for Darcy and should have been thrown out of court.

 

so one out of almost a 1000.....amgen hasnt done anything wrong???

 

Hey what about the 2 reps that file for 15 million each??

Has to be something true with that. The lawyers won't waste their time unless there is something obvious! Try a little exercise and call one lawyer and see how much time they give you to tell your story...make one up and see...you have to have a lot of proof......

 

Re: Now there are over 1100 wrongfultermination lawsuits at Amgen. They all didnt fit

hey what happened with Oanh Le? I remember her..

 

The Feds have taken the case. Wake up Amgen and settle the civil case while you still can. IT IS NOW A FEDERAL CRIMINAL CASE. In addition to huge fines, someone may be going to jail........

 

Congress hearing about excess CEO pay (Merril Lynch, Citibank, Country wide)

Guess who is next on the cutting block!!!!!

 

Re: Now there are over 1100 wrongfultermination lawsuits at Amgen. They all didnt fit

She used to write emails in ALL CAPS

I don't know what happened on that fateful evening, but all you guys out there, run screaming from chicks who write in all capital letters. They are more trouble than you can imagine.

 

No chit...I'd be happy if they gave me 1/2 of any one of those settlements to be outta here...wish to hell I'd been rif'd...hoping my name is on the next round...if there is one

 

It is funny how all of us forget about all of this.......

 

I don't think we have forgotten. It is pushed back in our memory so we can focus on all the new craziness going on right now. With this much dysfunction going on one has to suppress some of it in order to stay sane. Just like the soldiers in Iraq. However someday it will all come crashing back and then we will need to seek help. Hope it doesn't all happen at once to everyone otherwise the term "going Postal" will become "going Amgen".

 

How many folks out there have experienced retaliation from Management and HR?

 

there are so many people out to get kevin....

 

You have the over 50 women who are power crazy that fabricate reasons to terminate anyone who is a perceived threat to them, no matter how good their work. One woman (I can't use the word "lady") attacks employees who are lower labor grades and those above her. She has managed to get 2 Executive Directors and one Director placed on PIPs or fired. Why is this behavior tolerated? Because she is in the "good ol gals" network? Of course there are lawsuits!

 

She sounds like my manager who is perpetually on the move to destroy folks. She was made director in a department where she had zero experience, I really mean zero experience

 

Did Amgen really know about negative Aranesp studies and hold them back? How can they do that when patient safety comes first? The ENHANCE study the didn't know about it?

 

Amgen knew about the Danish study but didn't make a statement until sometime after the paper was published.

 

actually after earnings and stocks were sold off.

That is why you, big wigs left quickly, Nanula and Malibu Man from Quality

 

How do you know they knew about the Danish study. You don't know that for a fact. How could you.
