Be specific. How has Merck, a corporation, hurt employees?
You are an at will employee. Meaning you may leave at your will or the company may let you go at their will. Every employee has the ultimate power of choice: leave at any time. If you are unhappy, leave and go to another large corporation that will meet your expectations.
Oh Yes !
The above poster would lead us folks, who have been here giving everything we have to this company, to believe that it's really easy to just pick up and leave !
(Tomorrow you'll be able to find another job who'll provide you with all the same benefits: pay, title, tenure, vacation, etc. that you had at the job where you just quit; because oh yes, the grass is green all around in this country today !!! NOT !)
You are a complete JACKA$$ !!!
After spending years at a company going above and beyond to make it better this poster would say that the company owes us nothing.... if that were true then Merck would just fire us all because none of us have any value at all; but they don't !!! They even recognize this by either keeping you or giving you some sort of severance package !
So I call BS on this A$$HOLE who obviously works for someone on the Merck Board, VP, HR, etc.
Any company is made up by the sum of its parts in order to continue to better itself. If it didn't owe anything to its' employees then every Major CORP out there would fire everybody and rehire a new batch of folks at entry level salaries.
Is this happening ? No !!! (layoffs because of poor decisions at the top: Yes)
So.... Troller go F yourself !!!
