Craig here. I am using this anonymous blog to communicate to my GMA team members.
I am now a new reformed leader with newly acquired buffed skills and I support all Merck leadership skills to make Merck #1 again.

These skills sets I am calibrating into my performance inputs and goals for 2013.

My 2013 skills grid focus are to be excellent in building talent, retention, diversity, collaboration, acted with courage, candor, showing respect, giving credit, demonstrating ethics, demonstrating integrity.

Craig, that is great to hear. It was so wise of you to chose areas in which you have a bit of room for improvement.
 




































Working for Craig Granowitz and his dysfunctional managers under fear, intimidation and bullying has destroyed our human dignity. We are scared and exhausted. Just walk around and you can gather this feedback.

Coaching of this monster will not bring any change.

Well you see you are actually wrong. There is a New ME. My coach and stakeholder feedback shows that my sociopathic, narcissistic, psychopathic, and bullying behaviours are in total control!

By all accounts Craig you and your managers are Douchebags and Bullys. You all lack the basic required skills of human dignity. Your goal to make GMA a commercial entity will fail. Just like it did at Schering Plough.

Well said, there is a tide of external opinion that confirm that Merck Management is in operating in lalala land....or Alice in Wonderland. Lets agree that Merck is NOT WELL!

Mark Schoenebaum, at ISI Group, conducted an anonymous poll of his clients following the announcement. The buy-siders called for executive scalps. One called the conference call “horrible” and intoned, “management must change or they will be changed.” Another wrote: “Management has its head in the sand,” and added that Merck needs to streamline R&D and move away from diseases like osteoporosis and heart disease that require big outcome trials. “Why is Peter Kim still there?” wrote one. Another said Kim “must step down.” This poll of investors only gave a 50% chance that odanacatib will be approved by 2015
 






The culture of bullying and intimidation has resulted in total abuse of our values and given us such a low self esteem. We cannot trust or speak up. Just walk around and you will see how sick everyone is. We are like deer in front of head lights waiting for Craig to pull his next crazy trick.

Just think we are being managed by Schering Plough goons is really an absurd. demented and baffling.

Craig was a direct report to Carrie Cox.

Next -- the good news: This resolves the single biggest litigation exposure New Merck faces, as a result of the bust-up of Schering-Plough, in late 2009. Perhaps immodestly, I must note that I predicted (repeatedly) that it would settle for over $500 million (as there was a veritable orgy of evidence of scienter -- allegedly, of course). It has.

Now, the sobering object lesson: Ex-CEO Hassan, Ex- No. 2 Carrrie S. Cox, Ex-CFO Bob Bertolini, Ex-GC Tom Sabatino and the rest of the top ten officers at legacy Schering-Plough walked off with more than the $498 million non-reserved charge taken today -- in golden parachute payments -- after they (allegedly) delayed a pivotal null-study result on the cholesterol management franchise for nearly two years. During that time, legacy Schering-Plough sold about $5 billion of that franchise's drugs to the public. As Dr. Harlan Krumholz of Yale said, when the study results were finally known in March of 2008 "this drug may just be a very expensive placebo. . ." So, during those two or so years -- patients did not get more effective drugs, due to the delay. In the end, the executive team busted-up Schering, sold it off, and pocketed their parachutes (with the help of an allegedly complicit Compensation Committee of the legacy Schering-Plough board).

The culture Mr. Hassan promoted as a supposed "turnaround artist" was largely antithetical to good science, and careful patient-focused care. It was all about slick marketing studies -- like ENHANCE (a study not completed until well after FDA approval of the drug being "studied"). No doubt, RMS Schering has some problems when Hassan, Cox, Bertolini and Sabatino and the rest joined in March of 2004 -- but the idea that they steered it directly into the iceberg, so that they could personally profit (and profit wildly) from its bust-up (all allegedly) should be compared with equal distain to the role of the banksters in the financial meltdown of 2008.

There can be no doubt that the Merck and Schering shareholders lost far more than the two-thirds of a billion -- for which New Merck is paying today. New Merck has a blotch on its once stellar reputation (most admired company for seven straight years, in the late 1980s), thanks in large part to the "buccaneer's" attitiude -- of the legacy Schering "turn-around" executive team. People aren't as likely to think that the best treatment will be promoted by Merck, post the ENHANCE debacle.

And that's very unfortunate. Thanks Fred, Carrie, Bob and Tom!

Here's a bit from Reuters:

. . . .Merck. . . said it has agreed to pay $688 million to settle two U.S. investor lawsuits over its disclosures concerning the Enhance drug study released in early 2008.

Two federal lawsuits led by several pension funds alleged that Merck and Schering-Plough Corp knew more than a year in advance that the trial known as ENHANCE was a failure, but withheld that information from investors. . . .

Merck said it has recorded a $493 million after-tax charge for the settlements. It said this reduced previously-reported fourth-quarter profit per share to 30 cents from 46 cents. . . .



It is baffling that each of those people still hold very responsible positions in corporate America -- and in most cases, at public health care companies. Baffling. [I should note the that legacy Merck team bears some responsibilty here, too -- as co-venturer on Vytorin. But only some. As anyone who has read the public emails (produced in the federal ENHANCE securities class action litigation) well-knows, the sharp end of the marketing speer was almost always being held by, and brandished about, by Schering-Plough people.]

It's well known both inside and out that Granowitz destroyed medical affairs at Schering. It's also painfully evident that after failed launch after failed launch medical affairs isn't being resourced to support launches as it did pre-Granowitz. Adam runs around wondering why things aren't working out all the while GMA is in rebellion. He was told and did nothing. Granowitz cuts budgets, Adam is awed by the clarity, USMLT is amazed by the conviction, Denise A Williams has a tingle run up her leg because USMA is finally cut, Timney is re-aligning looking to replace upcoming losses and the customers give us the middle finger because there's an absence of science and meaningful clinical benefits discernible through detail aids, MMFs and sample drops. Adam has to know. Adam should know!! Don't know how it's being managed up but at some point Adam will have to answer for the failures all the while being told and knowing that Granowitz gave him short term savings in exchange for poor long term growth.
Also, R Hartz will not bail you out nor get you where you need to be. He can however serve as a fall guy, hmmmmm. Your other option is to really, really, really, really, really grow AP. Good luck.

ARE YOU KIDDIN? Adam is biding his time, making $3M a year, to see if he'll be next CEO at Merck or go elsewhere. The higher one progresses in their career, the less risk they take. Merck's executive suite exemplifies this. And, they love to hire failures. How bout Tidball, bounced from one company, and became anointed the holy one by Miriam, the useless Head of HR who joined Merck from that legendary innovative company called AT&T, and Miriam brings in her gal pal Breinza, ex J&J, who bombed after she left J&J to go to Hilton Hotels. And the beat goes on,,,,,,,, and the beat goes on. Just Like Kim took care of his Stanford mentor, by having Merck purchase his failed company.

Craig, you still have never removed your head from Carrie Cox' fat butt!
 






The recent Global Medical Affairs survey results report confirm that Craig and his leadership team has failed. The SP model that was brought over is not working. The Hassan, SP and Organon left over goons and bullys are contributing to the Merck failures. The clash of the cultures and the ethical gaps among the three entities is the cause of complete breakdown in operations.

This must be exposed if we at Merck are to survive.

It is obvious that the SP and Organon people in GMA are being treated preferentially in the titling and rating process. This is being done under Ken and Adam's watch.
