Breaking: Rep retiring and not looking back

If I remember correctly, it was a “merger of equals”. that’s why we got to keep everything while coming over. Pension, benefits seniority etc.

Nope. The merger of equals was between American Home Products and Warner Lambert. Pfizer called the big funds on Wall Street and major stockholders voted in favor of the Pfizer takeover.

All the stockholders are are greedy bastards. Pfizer is nothing but a parasite….and a boil on the roid on Pharma’s ass.
When the truth about the “vaccine” is revealed, PFE will be removed from the rectum of Pharma.

It wasn’t that hostile. “Here’s a buttload of money more than your value and I’ll happily swallow your poison pill, I’m hostilely taking you over now.”

The poison pill meant that they had to keep all employees in their current positions. I wish that I'd been severed from this corrupt cesspool.

1.) it was Warner Lambert, Parke Davis was just the drug division of Warner Lambert.

2.) Pfizer bought WL because of Lipitor. Yep, Lipitor was developed by WL.

3.) IT was 1999 and PFE stock hit a high of about $50.00 THEN PFE spent money like a drunken sailor made terrible decisions and the stock never seen $50.00 again until very recently, 21 wasted years.

4.) WL purchase saved PFE ass because w/o Lipitor PFE would have been nothing but a marketing company w: no drug development.

That sounds like me. You are 100% correct.

It’s only the beginning. If “ things” continue along the same paths, market will crash by Christmas. Black Friday will be the final determinant where it’s going.

When you retire do you get dental coverage through Pfizer? I am being told they don’t offer it anymore but we always had it.

I don't think it's an option anymore.

I retired last year. Dental was COBRA rates. Very expensive coverage. Medical continued with medical subsidy. It went up $60 per month for 2022, so our cost out of checking will be $897 per month.
