Closing the Biomet Deal







So another deadline missed and now mid June. What a circus.
I wonder who's bright idea it was to split the ZUK sale up in Europe and the U.S.
I'm sure it would have been easier to find a buyer will to take it globally. Dumb.
 






A real world example of the leaders on both sides overpromising and underperforming processes they do not control. The 5 P's could have been better utilized in this affair. Proper Planning Prevents Poor Performance. We all suffer the consequences.
 


















Agreed. Medtronic executed a far, far, bigger acquisition of Covidien after this deal was announce and closed months ago.

Does Medtronic have competent leadership? That may be the difference. This is par for the course for Zimmer. Leadership makes commitments that they pull out of their you know whats then saddle employees with the nightmare of trying to get it done. Then when it doesn't happen to their arbitrary plan, it makes the entire company look bad. What is the result, leadership demands to know why employees cannot 'deliver'.
 












Friday... hope they keep the best workers.. and remove the slack.

And hey biomet HR ya better get serious about sexual harrassment... before the lawsuits get filed.. you have full time repete offenders... I heard a class action suit is pending.
And Hey Mark.M you have no brains!!!!! Ya dumb fuck.. your named too!!
 


















Is it going to happen this week?? Word on the street is Friday. However, "word on the street" has been a complete joke.
funny! The word on the street was that the closing was happening today. So here we are, still sitting here waiting on this closing. This is so annoying, but I will promise you that the other large companies are going to learn from this debacle. Hey DD, are you now thinking it was smart to hold out for more money from SN. Why couldn't you just sell the entire bag to Lima? (domestic and EU markets). There is a lonely federal court room that has your name written all over it...please go back to practicing law and leave the financials to Binder. Stop asking everyone to present stupid Power Points to you so you can learn the industry on the fly!
