I posted it. I have not said anything positive about management. But the book is a bunch of crap. Yes, there are instances when bad practices and illegal activities happen in the name of cost-cutting. But it is not as prevalent as implied. Almost all play by the rules. Every so often it does not.
Here is a good example. Does this make Glaxo a bad company? I do not think so.

GlaxoSmithKline, the British drug giant, has agreed to pay $750 million to settle criminal and civil complaints that the company for years knowingly sold contaminated baby ointment and an ineffective antidepressant — the latest in a growing number of whistle-blower lawsuits that drug makers have settled with multimillion-dollar fines.
Altogether, GlaxoSmithKline sold 20 drugs with questionable safety that were made at a huge plant in Puerto Rico that for years was rife with contamination.
Do these settlement make all the companies bad in totality?
