This is posting #104....3 pages of commentary toward the Head Putz...a few of his obvious responses. Isn't it time to step in and take a look around? Putz has killed the motivation here with his "brilliant" speech in Denver...very obvious that HE has no confidence. What type of "leader" comes into a National meeting and belittles his salesforce? I along with many others were totally shocked. Putz doesn't like Cafepharma....too bad. It's free speech. Yes, there are some degrading comments that shouldn't be on here, but let's face it, the majority deal with the lack of leadership. His disdain for Schering continues...he believes he needs to bridge everyone over to Merck and do things "the Merck way". Aren't we over that yet? Aren't we suppose to be ALL Merck? Didn't we give up the "legacy" talk awhile ago? Yet, Putz continues his ways. Are you telling me there were NO qualified candidates in this salesforce to get promoted to DM? Yet you HAVE to find a Merck guy with no experience in the Hep C field...oh wait...that's right...he must know all the policy letters by heart. That'll help us win.
Frank...you've admitted some mistakes that you've made along the way...don't let keeping Putz in this position be another mistake added to your list. Please.

Hell, I came from Schering and that place you are so fond of was a rapidly sinking ship. Not sure what you thought was so great about it- management? Rich Murphy? Are you kidding me? TAP crap- remember that? Sales? Yup- the upside down hockey stick... Managed Care? please. Marketing? Chris Varley- enough said.
I seriously doubt that Todd has any control whatsoever around merging our tiny little division into the Merck machine. There are some things I have noticed that seem to be required of everyone here. Yes, it can be annoying and time-wasting, but it could be a lot worse. We could have our detail pieces on that damn tablet and be forced to record calls and maintain ridiculous GIGO (that's garbage in , garbage out)metrics like many of the sales forces. I think somebody has recognized that those would not work in this division.
While there probably are some people in this division who could get promoted to CTM, do you recall anyone getting promoted from rep to DM at Schering? Drawing a blank here... There are hoops to jump through, like it or not. If you want it, figure out the hoops, start jumping, and go for it. Nobody's stopping you.
PS- I was at the meeting and did not feel belittled in any way. Get over yourself.

The problem here is that SP people are now just accepting what is going on. The poster didn't say that SP was going great, but Merck definitely has driven this division to all time lows. If Todd has little control then get rid of him. What's he there for? Good for you not feeling belittled, but it was clear to the majority of the people there that Todd made himself look like a fool on the stage AND in group settings. The hoops here are not necessarily the right hoops to jump through...but its obvious now that CTM management has given up trying to do battle with Todd and I'm seeing that they are just "going with the flow" and not trying to stir anything up. My manager is just not the same...I can tell he's beaten down. Although he has always been a great filter from upper management (even during the Murphy days), I think the dam has broken.
"It was clear to a majority of people"
Who is this majority? I was there. I spoke to many and not one had a problem. I am inclined to believe there are about 5 of you whining posting over and over again. While the "majority" are happy to be where we are. Now respond with your dumb "hey Todd nice reply" blah blah blah. The truth is your unhappiness has nothing to do with Todd. You just need to up your ssri.
The people in your district breakout had a problem with it, and that is a majority? Math isn't a strength of yours clearly. And no, I had no problem with it. Some people are motivated when there is doubt thrown their way.
I also want to point out that you are posting at 3 am. That says alot about your life and explains why you get on here and attack someone who cant defend themselves.
I read those posts about how you (the 5 of you posting) were gonna let Todd have it at the meeting. Did the cat get your tongue?
Spineless. That is how I would explain you. Face it, no matter how many posts you make you are not going to convince anyone that you are right.
Leave if you hate Todd so much. Or, be a man and step up in Anaheim and say something.
My guess, after Anaheim, you will be on here at 3 am Friday night assaulting a good person who can't defend himself even though you looked him in the eye and didn't have the cojones to say something.
You are a pos. That can't be denied!
Ok I don't believe that the guy a few up is putz but why on Earth would someone defend him like that? Even if you weren't offended? Don't get it
I think we should start a new thread about how many times the putz will express his disappointment in us at the 1S meeting. Over/Under 4
He may be over on that one...but I bet he doesn't mention CafePharma anymore.
Gotta go now...need to take a putz. Coffee does it to me everytime!
LOL, ya nooooo way he ever mentions CP.
