Project Hercules = Big Job Cuts

PMO is the biggest joke. The PMO guys create and track gantts, then the R&D leads track gantts, and then the managers/directors track gantts. Can we say "redundant"? The worst is when the PMO guys try to get technical and speak engineering lingo and sound like third graders.

THIS. Very little value created and even less accountability since the real doers get the blame. Staplers and mesh are commodities and SILS crapped the bed in epic fashion. But hey, PMO!!!
 






























Anyone who protects Bryan Hanson and Chris Barry is a crook!
Joe Almeida is just the new crook that took over as new CEO of Covidien.
The whole company is a joke to work for. Worked there for 5 years and gave my all only to get shat on.
 






If R&D is gutted then why in the world one needs to have huge PMO? If there are no or fewer R&D projects what are PMO folks going to do.... play with their wee wee? Oh wait that's what they did all along anyway in the great leadership of RL.

Have to admit he played game well. From a drafter for DG all the way to king of the hill without college. He put those size 12's in gold.
 






New VP with no degree leave so RL alone for a bit and start on Jamieson. Promo same day as layoffs. Wonder how all those degree holding laid off employees feel about that one getting promoted.

Are you saying GS is gone? Hard to tell from how you wrote that. Is Jamieson gone too? I heard of a 26 year veteran going yesterday.
