What/When was the beginning of the end for Merck?

Quote



The beginning of the end was when KF became CEO and when the research team completely annihilated the Vytorin/Zetia franchise with poorly planned and executed trials...does anyone remember the ENHANCE trial presentation at ACC? That day was the beginning of the end of the CV division. It is almost impossible to believe that the company that discovered statins is no longer in the Cardiovascular medicine business.
 


When Merck stopped trying to improve and started coasting by assuming that the Merck name alone would ensure success. With that, I blame complacency in the R&D department. All it takes is a hiccup in the pharma pipeline to kill a company. Merck just has a little longer glide factor because of the decades of success. Brace for impact.
 










Oh this one is easy...

Merck's demise began when they decided to build the rep job around the lap top computer and when DTC advertising started...

sprinkle in all the diversity/affirmative action hires, and voila!!

A ruined company...

It was a bunch of arrogant and ignorant white males who covered up VIOXX was killing people and these same dumb@ss white males who incriminated themselves with the emails that were eventually recovered. It was the black chief legal counsel, KF, who had to save the company's ass.

He saved the company. Yeah, right dickface

It actually began in the late 80s and early 90s when the mass expansions took place. The company forged ahead with the quota systems and the company was flooded with ill educated minorities and females downhill from there!

It ended when Merck added a third rep when there was one MS and CID rep per territory. Ironically the model is once again returning to the original and sane combo of two reps per territory with different products. At the peak of the madness there were about 10 reps in the same territory with promotional overlaps calling on the same doctors.


How many "_____" are needed to screw on a light bulb?

The answer is not 10 but just one!

Without question he has been the worst of all. However, it started long before his time. The foundation was well laid with the previous 2 parasite CEO's, Dick Clarke and Ray Gilmartin. They did an excellent job of setting the groundwork for Kenny boy to come in and put the finishing touches for the demise of Merck.
