    The VKCL position is a safe haven for management. Watch more VKCL positions be created before the next round of Vaccine layoffs in a couple of years.

    After they created the VKCL position there was a spike in demand for bathrobes, slippers and use of Merck's teleconference system.

    It's all part of the grand scheme to purge more reps and save the most cutthroat, loyal, backstabbing managers for the VKCL positions.

    MGAM's or Managers Grifting at Merck have now conveniently morphed into VKCL's or Vaccine Kooks Constantly Lying because you know they are full of sh!t when they tell reps, CTL's and DCO's that they are getting access into the top Integrated Delivery Systems with successful initiatives. Yeah right!

    They are also known as Vaccine Kitchen Counter Leeches because they spend most of the day sitting around kitchen counters in their bath robes making up calls, visiting ids websites to create b.s. data for their spreadsheets and calling reps to get appointments for them to impress their clueless DCO's. Many of these VKCL's are not getting into their accounts because they are no see places but management makes excuses for them and loosen their job responsibilities. It's the MGAM scam 2.0 upgrade.

    Yet it's the VKCL's who have little to no access to their accounts have excuses made for them by their DCO's or they are being allowed to dump their hard to see accounts off to reps. Do you really think these VKCL's are doing a ton of work to get in to see their customers? It's pretty easy nowadays to go to a clinic or ids website to get info to put into a bs report to impress your manager. This is basically what some of these VKCL's do all day.

    My VKCL is super proactive out there. May be a bit meddlesome in my affairs but does an overall good job. Sounds like I have a rare exception. A few good wins too.

    There are a few good exceptions out there because a few former public sector managers were kept as VKCL's who also had some private sector Vaccine experience too. Some of the VKCL's who are struggling or are causing headaches for reps are former MSCAMS and CTL's which shouldn't be a surprise.

    CTLs' are poorly named as well. There's not a leader in the bunch. There's not a leader in the company, for that matter.

    This job is not needed. That is the truth. The VCRs and CTLs are doing the exact same work.

    In fact the VKCL role has caused major confusion with customers. There are some great people in these rolls, but it is overkill and should be eliminated.

    DCO's and CTL's should have their own customers to call on too. They shouldn't be paid six figures for facilitating teleconferences, meetings and making u lies on how reps aren't doing enough.

    My CTL would love to do that actually. I don't think most CTLs want to be paid six figures and not have their own customer interactions. She has mentioned the desire to have her own customers. She is annoyed as well with the VKCLs and sticking their nose in other's business. Accounts that they aren't tied to. Our region meeting there was a specific VKCL asking questions about accounts not in her states and she had no involvement with.

    It sounds like you have a CTL with a backbone, integrity and a sense of accountability. Current Merck leadership despises those qualities. They want loyal invertebrates who parrot their nonsense. Enjoy that rare CTL while you can.
