Corporate Restructure

Grifols has had three NSMs in the last five years. During this time there has been over 100% turnover in managers (some regions have turned over twice), and almost 100% of sales people. Prepare to get fuc_ _ _.
 






R&D especially. No one with knowledge and self respect stay there; people that stay are the ones that have no experience or cannot go anywhere else, yet command higher titles and salaries by merely sticking around. Who would have thought "incompetence" is a virtue.....

Says the guy from Operations... Why do you think this about R&D? Who screwed you over there in the past to give you such a grudge?

If you're honest with yourself, you will realize that there are morons in all departments at every company. Talecris has them, Grifols has them, and even Google has them. It's all just a big game in the end. Strategy is key, and some will end winners and others losers. It's just the American way.
 


















Sadly, when the day actual comes when Grifols says “No way am I paying that guy for that amount” we would have had 2 years to make sure we were not in this situation. Most of us are willing to stay to the very end passing up new exciting fulfilling careers at new companies because much like the executive team we make fun of, we are hooked on the all mighty dollar and will need some serious rehab to break the habit. All of us left have started believing we are really worth this amount including the extra bonuses. The train slowed down long ago for us to jump off we just can’t!!!!
 






That is all part of the greedy business plan of Cerberus. The higher salaries are small potatoes compared to what they make on the deal. At least the US is getting it's Chrysler money back. We are all suckers. I hear over and over at other companies " we will never do it the Talecris way or we arent hiring from Talecris, are you kidding me." Good luck to us all.
 






















































There is probably a reason that Immunology Reps are getting a retention bonus. This deal is too highly leveraged so it is going to affect all aspects of the business. Maybe not initially but within 6 months something will have to happen. Grifols gave up too much with Kedrion deal, etc.
 






The inclusion of Kedrion into the mix is short on latitude but long on platitude. The corporate menu will be a fungi filled octberfest with beer and bananas chief on the banquet table of discontent. Immodium D will be served with a succulent buffet featuring all the hot pockets you can eat in 15 minutes followed by krispy creme donuts covered in ginger slices soaked in hyper-tet.

stern will appear in a grass skirt that hanson sets on fire causing the sprinkler system to erupt.

after words every one parties down to star bucks for lattes a la gaither
 
























It sounds like Grifols management will be in RTP next week. The deal must be close to finalized if that is the case. FTC will probably rule next week in favor of the deal.

Is this what everyone else is hearing? What's the latest on integration plans?
