It's Time to Terminate Thomas L. Lyon III and his suck up sidekick, Sean Swider too!

I never worked for Tom, don't know Tom but I am continually amazed at how this guy is lit up like a super nova on this site. Hands down, he has to be the most vilified person on all of cafépharma. I would have to assume that upper management at Merck pays some attention to Café pharma and would be just a little bit curious as to why he garners such vitriol of epic proportions? As the old saying goes "where there is smoke there's fire"

I wonder if Tommie Lowrie Lyon realizes that inhaling triple baconator after baconator on field trips and meetings will not help his deteriorating back considering the considerable size up front being pulled down by gravity. I guess the wannabe professor isn't that intelligent. Maybe his 30, 60 and 90 day business plans could include a few salads.

Hilarious!!!

A bad manager can take a good staff and destroy it, causing the best employees to flee and the remainder to lose all motivation. Thomas L. Lyon III is the master of being a bad director/manager. He has done a disservice to Merck and he will continue his reign of error anywhere else he waddles off too mismanage.
 
























is Tom Lyon really still at Merck !?

I left in 2012 but still remember this tool from HQ meetings. It's sad that a douche like this somehow is still at the company. Very fake and disingenuous !

Sadly, he is still here but the aging process hasn't been kind to Thomas L. Lyon III. Karma is definitely working to the amusement of those having to tolerate him.
 






Oh Tommy, Tommy, Tom Lyon. You continue to embarrass yourself in those big meetings when you act like you understand the public sector issues or when you try to get your account managers to not only write out detailed account strategies but also have them use those strategies to direct representatives. In both cases those are blatant policy violations yet your boss Jan tries to pretend you are not incompetent. If it wasn't for your lineage you wouldn't be in management, let alone Merck. You are one undeserving, unqualified and overrated silver spooner with strong narcissistic qualities that abuses power. EVERYBODY in the company knows you are not qualified to do your job and nepotism is the only reason you are here.

Other than nepotism, Phil Lowery sucks too.
 






Lepresean, the little red sycophant VKCL from Michigan is getting fired up for St. Patrick's Day. I know he can't wait to put on his little green suit and hat so he can perform for his sugar DCO, TL III. It's sad these two losers are still with Merck. What a waste of money and time these two have been.

When your daddy is a famous business professor with ties to Merck, incompetent brats can prosper here. Ain't that right Tommy? Tommy barely spent time in the field and he got kicked out of hospitals but he was able to land management jobs without having to move to Philly.

You can tell he was a know it all loser that nobody liked in highschool and college because he never shuts up and talks over people but he actually believes people like him in Merck, especially females. LOL!!!! He can't tell the difference between liking someone for who they are versus pretending to like someone because you are in a management position. It's obvious he's not as bright as he thinks he is.

Tommy is the biggest laughing stock in the pharmaceutical industry. He is trapped as Vaccine DCO in the Midwest because his horrible reputation as a goofball micromanager who thinks he's a professor like his papa has other Merck divisions and other companies avoiding hiring him. Eventually Merck will get sick of overpaying this malcontent who runs off good talent to other companies.

This is sad I am up this late. I suffer from insomnia and trying to keep Tom off my back contributes to it. If he finds a reason not to like you because you didn't jump high enough for him, he makes life a living hell for you. He is bitter because he knows he is trapped as DCO in the Midwest because nobody wants to hire him. His Cafepharma reputation has sealed his fate.

Thomas L. Lyon III, the nonstop talking pile of sh!t and his loyal dung beetle, Sean "the Sycophant" Swider, are like two STD's that won't go away.

Being fake and disingenuous are the two main qualities both Thomas L. Lyon III and Sean Swider possess. They may both convince each other and Jan Nissan that they are great guys which is a complete lie but everybody else in this company know they are sinister and soulless con artists with no real strong relationships with others who think climbing the corporate ladder at the expense of hurting others is a sign of success in life. What sad and pathetic lives they live. When your identity is tied to how much success you think you have on a job rather than, how well you are respected by others or how well you treat others, you know you live a meaningless life. Well done Tommy and Sean.

Tom has been in the Vaccine Division for about a decade and he only has a couple of successful years. The first successful year he really didn't earn because his Adult Immunization Reps were getting credit for the Pediatric Reps' VARIVAX and GARDASIL doses in the pediatric offices around 2009. He also spent his entire time in Vaccines drowning his reps in wasteful activities by making them come up with business plans that were made up, weekly teleconferences that solved nothing, worthless workshops that were just show pieces for his favorite lapdogs and role play workshops that are nowhere close to the reality of how to sell Vaccines to customers. All of that B.S. busywork made the Miserable Midwest region sublevel set and less than mediocre which led to many of his successful reps and CTL's to leave his region. Enough is enough. Bring in somebody for less money who will actually allow the reps to build relationships, build access and actually sell toward the individual needs of the customers.

Tommy's self serving lapdog, Sean Swider, needs to go too. He brings no value to the organization when he was a CTL or currently as a VKCL. All he does is put together non approved glamorous sales presentations with no real substance, steals the ideas of reps in his district, forces his district to do his work for him and praises how great Tom is in meetings if he actually decides to go to meetings. How many times can this guy show up to meetings, pretend he gets an important call and then conveniently leave before the meeting is over? Sean the self serving sycophant.

Drop these two losers and things will get better in the Midwest. There will be less turnover and more sales production. Keeping this deadweight duo will just continue the pattern of more turnover and encourage the region just to do the bare minimum to stay off the radar because nothing really positive happens for people who excel for Tom or Sean. These people are usually exploited, burnt out then leave.
 







Are you people still griping about Tom Lyons after all these years? It's apparent that he'll go away on his own terms despite how lousy he's been as a director--or whatever his title is these days. At WP years ago, he was a great suck-up. That strategy worked and the rest is history.

Merck probably wants these two idiots to drive out even more reps. The Merck leadership is making a last cash grab before this company finally implodes due incompetent leadership driving it into the ground. The less reps, the more money and stock options for these selfish pricks.
