"Genentech" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-03-26 18:05:15

I do not desire it here and I am looking. To be honest about this 2007 top company - this organization forces you to alter out these stupid surveys online for self-gratification of uppper management. It is supposed to 'anonymous' but I did not alter exploit out measure year and would you believe my manager asked me a couple of weeks later if I filled it out? Doesn't affect me about your anonymous survey. I've work for PFE and was talked to by my manager about not completing the Gallup survey as come up as not contributing to the United Way through the on-line. Big Brother designed system (apparently giving once a year is not trackable like giving every 2 weeks in your paycheck - I was guilty for skipping Gallup though). If you're reading this place you know by now to alter out all that cram in the most vanilla way possible. Laying off in R & D; doubtful. When the Amgen problems became public knowledge. Genentech began recruiting populate from Amgen (I undergo first-hand experience; in fact they contacted everyone in my particular R & D department). Yes. Genentech can be a data producing sweatshop for RAs. Especially alter now-in these nervous financial times. When in disbelieve churn out data. I can also affirm that PhDs are being hired as RAs. The short sighted intend is to hire PhDs to bring home the bacon nonstop like postdocs object at RA salary. Sadly it is becoming more common. There are Scientists/Senior Scientists hired 5-7 years ago who could only get hired as an RA now. Its making for an increasingly messed up organizational map. Not to have in mind the effect on morale. Higher ups don't be to care. Its study CYA time. 100+ populate were laid of in SSF this week. The copy was.. interesting. New interns hired in the last month are still there. 5-year-employees well-liked by management are not. What I sight very interesting is how none of the Bay Area mainstream media outlets are reporting on it. Clearly. Genentech has cater over local media. And bequeath this is a affiliate that "has never had a layoff in its history." I wonder how they'll spin *that* factoid? Yes this is adjust.. the entire information section which included the library was axed with not a shred of warning... we were told it was strictly a business decision because of reduced revenues and EPS.. and that populate do not need to stock pile boxes in cubicles or offices because the company will provide "used boxes" for populate to pack their personal belongings.. and supposedly because everything is now "virtual" they don't need these people... are they missing the point that the people they let go of put the links of the resources and tools up for us to use... we were told the axed functions will now be outsourced... it was a very black tuesday at genentech this week... Lots of excellent experienced employees undergo been disappearing over the measure 3-4 years especially in the IT Division. They do a twice yearly "Resource Review" in the IT Division. The resources are people not post-its. It appears inexperienced Managers who undergo competent people below them are feeling threatened and then all of a sudden the experienced people below them are disappearing after the resource reviews. It is predictable. It engenders fear in all levels of non-management populate. It is like the musical "The Demon Barber of hurry Street." Extremely valuable people are seriously vanishing. It is making it hard for we who depended on them to do our jobs. We are having to do more ourselves in areas we have lost the experienced back up. What sense does this make? JW did this too at GE. Genentech is seriously bleeding & the hemorrhage is the "cream of their cut." This is good for the competition who can reap the benefits of the lost employees. ingeminate:The Library posting was a hoax email..... if Genentech employees posted this above get a clue and do some research!! -- 45 people of us lost our jobs last week.. there is no library department there anymore there is no graphics department etc etc any more... CIT cut a lot of our jobs. We had 6 hours to pack our offices. Our telecommunicate was turned off on Thursday at 5:00. This is not a communicate or a hoax.. it is TRUE!!!!! I lost my job and it is very real. I get paid until January 12th and then can apply for unemployment if I so choose. The IT division has been consistently cutting since hiring that guy who thinks he is JW from GE. We have lost some very very good populate. It is the "senior aim individual contributors" who undergo been disappearing. They are the experienced people we have relied on. It is makes our jobs take longer to do when we end up having to do everything ourselves. If you aren't a Director or up you don't get helped. You undergo to do everything youself. The self function copy may bring home the bacon for groceries but for a large research based affiliate that has been successful it makes it much harder to get one's job done. You're totally clueless about what goes on in corporate libraries. First many librarians that were let go are simply now being offered jobs in other departments. Rather than enjoy the efficiencies of centralization and reduced duplication of a affiliate wide library the CIT dept has just passed the costs over to other parts of the company so there won't be any net cause to EPS. In fact probably neutral to higher in the long run. The legal dept for dilate relies on professional searchers to act their due diligence for procure filings and infringement. You really evaluate having expensively paid lawyers do that bring home the bacon is a wise use of corporate time? You can do a examine on the gene com place and see the job posting now under "senior information specialist". Other jobs not posted will evenutally be needed with business developent same with affect sciences same with research etc etc. Secondly the only cerebrate that online "library" is there in the first place is because the librarians that were there built it. Sure the paid subscriptions are still good for a while and the homepage is comfort active. But someone else now needs to take over otherwise all those wonderful resources go destroy when the contracts discontinue. My sources say that someone has been assigned to keep that site but that person has no library background no undergo in this area and no real understanding of the sources on that page. Which begs the question how exactly do they now know what to pay for and how much etc etc. What you evaluate all of that somehow magically occcurs without any effort?! Again exactly who do you think selects and pays for those journals? You're totally clueles if you evaluate research required at this aim comes freely on the internet - it isn't the kind of research you use for your high school call paper. So instead of one shared subscription you're now going to undergo a company paying for multiple copies of everything. Hey great job on corporate savings! Quote:Oh please. The library is comfort there.. just go to any journal site from within DNA's intranet and you can get an article.. just as it has always been since the internet age came along. Which makes you query what the heck the "librarians" were doing all this time. Renewing subscriptions at $100K/yr? Genentech over a six months period fired 95% of the Tanox employees. When the site was purchased all production was stopped. I convey stopped product was stopped mid be adrift and product still sits in the production lines. If you are aware of what happens when lines and tanks are not flushed then you would know that the site was deliberating crippled. Quote:Anybody have anything nice to say about that abrasive moronic idiot who purports to head up the "diagnostic" business segment (RS formerly of Gen-probe and Accumetrics). Why is it that terds like that always seem to float to the top ? Big bad 'busive. 'brasive BOB is still there ? I'm surprised DNA hasn't figured him out for the fool he is by now and drummed him out. Quote:Does anyone have thoughts for the place in Oceanside? I comprehend they are running like a CMO?? Only manufacturing two products right now - Avastin and a Rituxan backup?? What's up with that? Management won't say anything but I evaluate that site's up for sale!! They fired the VP (David Broad) although the party line is he is "retiring". SSF sent down Gary Harbour to run the place. His measure 10 years at Pfizer were spent in mergers and acquisitions. Does that tell you something. They haven't run Avastin since measure year and are currently running qualification lots of Rituxan at 1 run/week. Every week employees get emails saying management is working on what products ordain be run after the qual lots are completed (in ~3 weeks). If you label them on it you are told that you're not a team player. I'm sure the site is for sale but knowing Genentech they probably want too much money. It is amazing the over inflated egos that run this place. All they compassionate about is their own sorry asses. Of course they're making plans to layoff populate at the lowest levels. desire that's going to save money. At the same time they are playing musical chairs and creating new positions for themselves and calling it management restructuring! Quote:Does anyone have thoughts for the place in Oceanside?

Guess what today Genentech announced VSP (voluntary severance packages) i e layoffs at Oceanside. Vacaville and South San Francisco for Production Operations. They evaluate they can disguise layoffs with VSP's. I think they'll be surprised at how many folks sign up for them. I personally evaluate at least 50% of the manufacturing personnel will sign up. Hopefully that's not true as I hope that those who are being harrassed and want out of this Hell hit ordain all get their desire. The downside is that they claim that the selection is random after you apply for the VSP so only 20-25% will actually get their wish. Pray for us we need all the good Karma!!!

As far as Gary Harbour he personally stated that he spent his measure 10 years with Pfizer Europe working in mergers in acquisitions. So I assume you are calling him a liar. I ran across this communicate looking for news when I heard my old impress got new responsibilities at Genentech. I first reported to Gary in quality in the early 90's at Upjohn. Not desire after the first merger to act P&U Gary relocated to Sweden and lead all the Quality organization in Europe. He stayed in Europe with Quality accountability through 2 additional mergers. I accept over his 10 plus years in Europe he had Quality accountability for plants from any one of 6 major companies that were independent in 1990 and all were part of Pfizer by 2003. I do not know what was said but Gary did a lot of work to clean up problems and integrate Quality organizations but his job was to make the mergers and acquisitions bring home the bacon not to execute new ones. Gary was a great impress. I would bring home the bacon form again in a minute. Re: Forced to fill out employee surveys and say this is a good displace to workYes this is true. I was "forced" (strongly encouraged) to alter out survey for science affiliate of the year awards. Our whole dept used one password. Big clue there that it was not safe. I was change surface told who I should put down as a not so good company (Bayer and Amgen). Re: layoffsSomeone is way out of the loop. Both voluntary (VTP) and not so voluntary (strongly encouraged) have been going on in SSF and VV since last October.

"Hiring Freeze at Siemens DX" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-12-12 15:27:26

Are you an investor looking for early stage investment opportunities? Biofind Innovations is the place for you to find opportunities to buy a lot of the affiliate ask and maybe change surface act a come in seat or advisor lay. It is not true at least where I work. In my former dept they just hired one and will be hiring one more to regenerate me. Of cover the job sucks and turnover is tremendous but they are hiring. the organizational structure is in shambles.... seems desire a bunck of departments are on hold... because they are not yet structured Dade's way or the highway! Of course there is. They have too many populate to hit the targets layed down by Siemens. Why hire more when you ordain be firing many. Quote:It is not true at least where I bring home the bacon. In my former dept they just hired one and ordain be hiring one more to regenerate me. Of course the job sucks and turnover is tremendous but they are hiring. Is that the incredibly talented RE ? Yes it's true. Been a hiring stand still for most departments in LA for months now. Only people being hired are to replace those leaving (if necessary). Regardless many are scheduled to leave by early 08 (they're fed up) and just waiting for their measure 10% from the old DPC Retirement Contribution. Manufacturing is scheduled to get in a year or so anyway. Its short term. if positions are eliminated or people have to be moved why alter change state headcount with outside populate until you've done EVERYTHING that you can to place existing personnel in those jobs. If the org charts get firmed up in December they'll probably lift it in the first quarter of 2008 for hiring of a more critical nature.. Quote:Its short call. if positions are eliminated or people undergo to be moved why fill open headcount with outside populate until you've done EVERYTHING that you can to displace existing personnel in those jobs. If the org charts get firmed up in December they'll probably lift it in the first accommodate of 2008 for hiring of a more critical nature.. Seriously doubt this in LA. They'll want to replace as many positions as possible with degree'd cater from Reagent lay over to CrossPoint before they change state down manufacturing there. Regardless many at both sites are leaving in droves by February 08. Outside hiring will be kept at a minimum process cuts layoffs and closures are taken care of by end of next year as well. Management is still getting over the shock of JB's dismissal and MG's go. Their relationship with him will not be nearly as comfortable. Just found out they are allowing a few critical positons to be filled. Mostly service to back fill positions that were left by people quitting. There ordain be alot more people leaving soon. Quote:Just found out they are allowing a few critical positons to be filled. Mostly service to back alter positions that were left by populate quitting. There ordain be alot more populate leaving soon. True. As previously mentioned they'll only be hiring to fill positions of those leaving if needed. No future expansion in LA atleast till they close the Reagent Plant and increase R&D at CrossPoint. They are expecting a rather large exodus by February 08 regardless.

"Affymetrix versus Illumina" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-21 21:04:01

Our updated news divide now collects syndicated news press releases and opinions by biotech bloggers. If you be to be constantly informed then this is the place to try. Affy patented every imaginable microarray thing or idea under the sun. Their patents are over stretched and they certainly didn t beat Illumina in a real comprehend. At worst they ordain be forced to maybe pay some royalties for a while in some jurisdictions. Affy is a fossil. But at least they seem to be waking up a bit. They should thank Illumina and not sue them! Without Illumina we would all be stuck with bad Affy tech. Affy seems to think that anything put on a flat surface belongs to them! Soon they will claim that butter applied to cover is their invention... cover is obviously flat. So is Affy innovation. Almost a troll but with bad IP. ingeminate:Fossil? I think co-opting someone else's innovations is the more outdated practise. Like Affy co-opted Ed Southern?Also biotech was born and thrives on stealing others ideas. Remember Genentech losing that lawsuit to UCSF for the stolen clones? "Ed" got so "justly" compensated his lawyers went around and sued or threatened to sue anyone that had anything to do with microarrays (both spotted and synthesized).. rumor has it that Affy put them up to it. In terms of Affy and Illumina... Affy has to try to slow down Illumina or they are going to get run over. Quote:Er hem. Ed has been justly compensated by Affy. I guess you are saying Affy happily paid Ed when he nicely asked and Affy was then horrified to realize that they had stolen his intellectual property? I seem to bequeath something about lawsuits but I'm glad to find out that Affy is so against lawyers and lawsuits and stealing of other people's ideas. It seems they learned well from the affable professor! With the apparel on the other foot now it shall be interesting to see how the humility is served. Cold? Or perhaps warm with toast? All puns intended. Quote:Soon they will affirm that cover applied to cover is their invention... Bread is obviously flat. So is Affy innovation. Almost a troll but with bad IP. Fodor is disturb because Illumina is delivering the products to the market that fulfill his own visions about genome analysis. He now also claims he invented NextGen sequencing. What is next? ingeminate:In terms of Affy and Illumina... Affy has to try to slow down Illumina or they are going to get run over. Look at merchandise cap and revenues. Affy lost already. With all their recent "innovations" being invalidated by deep sequencing they will soon disappear from the market. Reasoning that Affy or microarray tech will disappear is akin to claiming cars and trains will disappear with the advent of air travel. Do you have a cost effective personal flying car yet? Do not forget ENZO in this discussion. Remember there are pending lawsuits with intellectual property in regard to chips. Affy. Roche. Illumina and USC are very involved. It appears ENZO will be the winner. If so these companies especially Affy and Ilumina could be out of business. Again just my opinion but look at the dollars involved in a settlement or a win for ENZO-the dollars are huge! The density of the latest generation assays by Affy might be higher but they answer as self controls and don't really furnish you more info. You need another chip for CNV... Talk about bad planning!On top of all their scientific 'slowness' they be to only be competitive in the court room. Look at the accuracy of Illumina vs Affy. Accuracy is paramount for us. Imagine spending half your budget checking results. inform sequencing ordain probably alter this less important. Maybe. We gave up on Affy a few months ago. Unfortunetly (we are not very smart it seems!) we started of with Affy and ABI for micro arrays. Affy doesn't mouth well and ABI is dumping 'us' all! Just wish our switch to Illumina doesn't get punished by the courts... The Affy IP seems to rvolve around the word 'flat'. As for their next gen sequencing lawsuit what's up??? Haven't looked into it but what are they talking about? Quote:As for their next gen sequencing lawsuit what's up??? Haven't looked into it but what are they talking about? They think they own every tech using fluorescence or confocal scanning or oligos attached to a surface. Looked up the Enzo website. Couldn't figure out what they have to do with microarrays... Are they even involved in all this or is this an act at plugging an obscure biotech? Quote:ENZO-look up ENZ on the New York Stock Exchange. You do know what that is do'nt you??? That explains your ignorance about biotech you are the biofind spelling police!! Cy3 seems to be patented by Amersham? Still looking for Cy5 but there seems to be a lot of controversy and Enzo seems to be in a weak position in this contend... I think I'm wright to say that enzo undergo already lost one legal contend with Affy and the be of their patents seem to be really general. I'm not sure whether they ordain get rich with their cases. GE Healthcare have different cy patents to Enzo (different linking attachment) for which they pay royalities - they don't own the cy patents. Ed Southern's biotech OGT has the most general patents for microarrays and hasn't been backwards in suing anyone - they are the most cash rich biotech in Europe. Looked up a bit more on Enzo. Real winners... Seem to be in a bit of trouble themselves! Sued by their own share holders for stock manipulations it seems. Good luck with that one. I'll stick to Illumina and change surface Affy. What happens to Illumina when SOLiD really starts uptake. Every customer we know has is waiting for or wants the ABI machine. In differentiate every customer with a Solexa forge has problems with optics or lasers. And subpar customer function on them... "Every customer we know has is waiting for or wants the ABI machine"That's not what I am hearing. If that was true why is ABI silent about instruments they undergo placed so far???I am still waiting for a Genome bear on to inform that they bought several SOLID platforms i hear the SOLiD are over priced and dont work. I also hear illumina undergo shifted hundreds of systems - so move be that bad. Also the fact that the major genome centres undergo 10's of them ingeminate:What happens to Illumina when SOLiD really starts uptake. Every customer we know has is waiting for or wants the ABI machine. In contrast every customer with a Solexa forge has problems with optics or lasers. And subpar customer service on them...

"Is Pfizer's outlook that gloomy" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-11-11 21:06:47

Pfizer's last 2nd Quarter results showed a 48% displace in profits. Thus being down to $2.94 billion. Although this is down on measure year isn't a company that makes nearly $3 billion acquire in a quarter comfort doing come up? Surely this profit takes into account the current R&D calculate which is not being cut. Pfizer also spent $5 billion buying up its own shares to bolster the price and change magnitude the dividend. Later this year Pfizer is said to be spending another $5 billion buying shares approve. Can Pfizer not weather the act without drastic cuts? I evaluate its more the case of sales predicted to be down 40% by 2010 because of patents expiring. It's not easy to go financial data. It's all to do with earnings per share and profits per share thats why Pfizer would buy back it's own shares and then cancel them. As there are less shares on the merchandise earnings and profits per share should increase. As Pfizer sold its consumer health compassionate business to Johnson & Johnson for £16.6 billion in cash that would have shown up in measure years profits. This years profits was always going to be down on measure years. Thats the way I see it unless some one else out there understands the financial align of Pfizer. Its going to be drink drink drink all the way.... no matter how one sees it! Buying a affiliate is an expense and that means you be to cut more!!!Look at it this way: Pfizer is now worth 170 billions and if you change it for all change (i e. 170 billions) and deposit in a tip which gives 10 % arouse one would get 17 billions per year as acquire with no expenses (i e just sit & acquire for stockholders). Right now Pfizer is only earning 9-10 billions as acquire and with all that cast aside to bring home the bacon..... protect street doesn't desire that I am sure. Unless Pfizer comes up with another lipitor on its own without having to buy another company (buying another company is expense) Pfizer Closing UK lay. Cutting 420 Jobs September 11th. 2007 10:15 am By Ed Silverman The drugmaker which has made no secret of its plans cut costs will shutter manufacturing operations in devise. UK over the next two years. In January. Pfizer announced plans to save $1.5 billion to $2 billion in expenses by the end of 2008 and as move of that effort to destroy about 10,000 jobs or 10 percent of its be bring home the bacon force. The move comes as Pfizer suffers from generic competition and struggles to replace top-selling drugs with new meds. Just yesterday. Pfizer ceo Jeff Kindler told an investor conference that already sluggish Lipitor sales ordain be at the lower end of this year’s disappointing forecast. The Sandwich lay makes active ingredients for drugs for both humans and animals. Up to 15 employees ordain remain at the site to give the development of “regulatory starting materials,” and Pfizer plans to continue some research and development work there.“It is with regret that we inform our decision to end manufacturing operations in devise after 53 years,” says Tony Maddaluna vp of Pfizer’s global manufacturing operations in a statement. “This is the latest in a number of global manufacturing changes to ensure we are operating as efficiently and effectively as possible and able to respond to the challenges of today’s business environment.” devise is packed with low value TAs: A+R is a maturing merchandise. UG and AV are dead only Pain might survive. The CoE's in SND are a communicate; just look at the pathetic attempt to create a vaccine CoE. And who cares about Structural Biology when most of your targets are GPCRs and ion channels?Yes. I fear there is a very good chance that SND might not survive beyond 2010. How can you communicate about so called rich pipeline... when not long ago they talked about the same thing regarding rich arrange III drugs such as Oporia (FDA rejected after the NDA submission due to potential uterine cancer). Indiplon (another arrange III NDA rejected). Asenapine most importantly Torcetrapib recently lung cancer drug licensed from Coley in arrange III-stopped and yesterday Viracept was open to undergo cancer causing impurities....... etc etc etc..... even if some of these drugs had passed how can you regenerate 5billion Norvasc. 2.3 billion Zyrtec. 3 billion Neurontin. 3 billion Zoloft dwindling Lipitor sales and ultimately loosing procure in 2010 of alomost 12 billions?????? Just evaluate...... Pfizer is sinking..... "devise is packed with low value TAs"This wasn't always the case. But over the measure few years all of the good cram was closed down or shipped out. Everyone was so busy congratulating each other that they'd got rid of another batch of dead-wood they didn't notice that all of the quality workers had gone. Meanwhile totally unproductive units such as sexual health were showered with staff and money - what a waste. Who was in rush whilst all of this was going on and where is he now? If SW has become an unproductive wasteland the person responsible should suffer his job.... unless the outcome was intended... ITS much worse."Our rich pipeline shall set the re-create for a whole new pharma era. "Yes the pipeline is deep rich and full. Its diverse strong and above all lucrative. By 2013 triple digit growth. PFE to end $100 a share. We will go beyong no1 by living the values and valuing diversity going forward with the pipelineCool Ade Blu (none cooler none bluer needs no ade.

We ordain go beyong no1 by living the values and valuing diversity going send with the pipelineCool Ade Blu (none cooler none bluer needs no ade. ITS said) I bring home the bacon for Pfizer. I am more efficient now because my desk and lab space has been moved 3 times in 3 months. Now I am positioned for peak efficiency. Those other desks/labs were either too cold or too hot. This one is JUST alter! convey you Mr act Manager for finding the beat footprint for me. I also do EVERY step of the drug discovery affect all by myself even thought there are entire departments designated to act some of these tasks for me. Why you ask? Because my Managers never asked for that particular "resource" and conclude it is better to act Scientists work doing the scutt work in addition to actual science rather than designating it to the appropriate Department. After all relying on other Departments to do their jobs is just TOO efficient and circumvents the desire to micro manage every little go. Only in this way can we act the wheels of progress frozen solidly in displace at Pfizer. Meanwhile the support Departments get to spend 8 hours a day surfing the web because we're doing their jobs for them. Ho hum. Where's that candy dish? I only gained 5 lbs measure month sitting on my fat a****while chit chatting about do by food and alter diapers. Yes. Pfizer is a lean convey inefficiency machine. If it ain't broke you're not at Pfizer. Anybody know how the budgets are worked at Sandwich?I understood that PGM and PGRD shared the be of running the place. This involved the huge bus assure the gardeners contract incinerator. expend wet Treatment and general place logistics costs. ordain this huge budget now only go on PGRD and make it unviable to run when it is down sized when PGM is finally gone?The old PGM bldgs are going to be demolished which ordain basically half the.

Hope that British Law makes them furnish you all early retirement!!Pfizer-Pfree and happy! Will all advertised jobs for PGRD at Sandwich be filled with PGM staff if possible. Any news of a recruitment freeze from outside? No. Jobs will only be given to those who go the interview."Hope that British Law makes them give you all early retirement!!"Only to over 55's the rest- we are on the scrapheap. ;-( Pfizer pfree and gald to be out of AA with the package.

"Is Pfizer's outlook that gloomy" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-10 22:00:49

Pfizer's measure 2nd accommodate results showed a 48% displace in profits. Thus being down to $2.94 billion. Although this is down on measure year isn't a affiliate that makes nearly $3 billion profit in a quarter still doing well? Surely this profit takes into account the current R&D calculate which is not being cut. Pfizer also spent $5 billion buying up its own shares to bolster the price and change magnitude the dividend. Later this year Pfizer is said to be spending another $5 billion buying shares approve. Can Pfizer not weather the storm without drastic cuts? I think its more the inspect of sales predicted to be down 40% by 2010 because of patents expiring. It's not easy to follow financial data. It's all to do with earnings per share and profits per overlap thats why Pfizer would buy back it's own shares and then balance them. As there are less shares on the market earnings and profits per overlap should increase. As Pfizer sold its consumer health compassionate business to Johnson & Johnson for £16.6 billion in cash that would have shown up in measure years profits. This years profits was always going to be down on measure years. Thats the way I see it unless some one else out there understands the financial side of Pfizer. Its going to be drink down down all the way.... no be how one sees it! Buying a company is an expense and that means you need to cut more!!!Look at it this way: Pfizer is now worth 170 billions and if you sell it for all cash (i e. 170 billions) and fasten in a tip which gives 10 % arouse one would get 17 billions per year as profit with no expenses (i e just sit & earn for stockholders). alter now Pfizer is only earning 9-10 billions as profit and with all that junk to manage..... Wall street doesn't like that I am sure. Unless Pfizer comes up with another lipitor on its own without having to buy another company (buying another company is depreciate) Pfizer Closing UK Plant. Cutting 420 Jobs September 11th. 2007 10:15 am By Ed Silverman The drugmaker which has made no secret of its plans cut costs ordain shutter manufacturing operations in Sandwich. UK over the next two years. In January. Pfizer announced plans to save $1.5 billion to $2 billion in expenses by the end of 2008 and as part of that effort to destroy about 10,000 jobs or 10 percent of its total work compel. The act comes as Pfizer suffers from generic competition and struggles to regenerate top-selling drugs with new meds. Just yesterday. Pfizer ceo Jeff Kindler told an investor conference that already sluggish Lipitor sales will be at the displace end of this year’s disappointing forecast. The devise plant makes active ingredients for drugs for both humans and animals. Up to 15 employees will remain at the site to support the development of “regulatory starting materials,” and Pfizer plans to act some research and development work there.“It is with regret that we announce our decision to end manufacturing operations in Sandwich after 53 years,” says Tony Maddaluna vp of Pfizer’s global manufacturing operations in a statement. “This is the latest in a number of global manufacturing changes to ensure we are operating as efficiently and effectively as possible and able to act to the challenges of today’s business environment.” Sandwich is packed with low value TAs: A+R is a maturing merchandise. UG and AV are dead only Pain might defeat. The CoE's in SND are a joke; just look at the pathetic act to build a vaccine CoE. And who cares about Structural Biology when most of your targets are GPCRs and ion channels?Yes. I fear there is a very good come about that SND might not survive beyond 2010. ingeminate:What about the rich pipeline we keep hearing about ? Will that not pull Pfizer out from the ashes ? How can you talk about so called rich pipeline... when not desire ago they talked about the same thing regarding rich phase III drugs such as Oporia (FDA rejected after the NDA submission due to potential uterine cancer). Indiplon (another phase III NDA rejected). Asenapine most importantly Torcetrapib recently lung cancer drug licensed from Coley in Phase III-stopped and yesterday Viracept was found to undergo cancer causing impurities....... etc etc etc..... even if some of these drugs had passed how can you replace 5billion Norvasc. 2.3 billion Zyrtec. 3 billion Neurontin. 3 billion Zoloft dwindling Lipitor sales and ultimately loosing patent in 2010 of alomost 12 billions?????? Just think...... Pfizer is sinking..... "devise is packed with low value TAs"This wasn't always the inspect. But over the measure few years all of the good stuff was closed drink or shipped out. Everyone was so work congratulating each other that they'd got rid of another batch of dead-wood they didn't notice that all of the quality workers had gone. Meanwhile totally unproductive units such as sexual health were showered with staff and money - what a expend. Who was in charge whilst all of this was going on and where is he now? If SW has become an unproductive wasteland the person responsible should lose his job.... unless the outcome was intended... ITS much worse."Our rich pipeline shall set the re-create for a whole new pharma era. "Yes the pipeline is deep rich and full. Its diverse strong and above all lucrative. By 2013 triple digit growth. PFE to end $100 a share. We will go beyong no1 by living the values and valuing diversity going send with the pipelineCool Ade Blu (none cooler none bluer needs no ade. ITS said) Quote:ITS much worse."Our rich pipeline shall set the stage for a whole new pharma era. "Yes the pipeline is deep rich and full. Its diverse strong and above all lucrative.

Those other desks/labs were either too cold or too hot. This one is JUST RIGHT! Thank you Mr act Manager for finding the beat footprint for me. I also do EVERY step of the drug discovery affect all by myself even thought there are entire departments designated to act some of these tasks for me. Why you ask? Because my Managers never asked for that particular "resource" and feel it is exceed to keep Scientists work doing the scutt work in addition to actual science rather than designating it to the appropriate Department. After all relying on other Departments to do their jobs is just TOO efficient and circumvents the desire to micro manage every little step. Only in this way can we keep the wheels of develop frozen solidly in place at Pfizer. Meanwhile the support Departments get to spend 8 hours a day surfing the web because we're doing their jobs for them. Ho hum. Where's that candy cater? I only gained 5 lbs last month sitting on my fat a****while chit chatting about do by food and dirty diapers. Yes. Pfizer is a lean mean inefficiency machine. If it ain't broke you're not at Pfizer. Anybody know how the budgets are worked at devise?I understood that PGM and PGRD shared the cost of running the site. This involved the huge bus contract the gardeners contract incinerator. expend Water Treatment and general site logistics costs. Will this huge budget now only go on PGRD and alter it unviable to run when it is drink.

"Rumor - Guitar Hero III track list" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-08 09:18:23

Not confirmed in any way but it stems from a go over at ScoreHero that was quickly taken drink. Tier 1:Foghat- decrease RidePoison- Talk alter to MePat Benatar- Hit Me With Your Best ShotSocial Distortion- Story of My Life Encore: Kiss- move back and forth and Roll All NiteCo-op bespeak: Beastie Boys- Sabotage Tier 2:Mountain- Mississippi QueenAlice Cooper- School’s OutCream- Sunshine of Your LifeHeart- Barracuda impress: Tom Morello- Guitar BattleEncore: Rage Against the Machine- Bull’s on ParadeCo-op Encore: The Strokes- Reptilia This entry was postedon Sunday. September 16th. 2007 at 3:56 pmand is filed under. . You can follow any responses to this entry through the cater. You can or from your own site. Hm. I thought Dragonforce would’ve been one of the final go songs and the licensed music (like major denominate company-signed) usually is always in the career stuff (there’s a lot of it in the bonus tracks). The encore songs seem easier than the other four songs typically too. Oh well guess it could be legit. It also may have disappeared so fast because it wasn’t legit. No sevendust breaking benjamin modest mouse or audioslave makes me sad but it’s good to see them sneak in some modern bands killswitch act rocks. I would’ve loved seeing “arms of sorrow” in there also 30 seconds to mars and tool or ameliorate circle would’ve been fantastic. Sucks that devil went drink to Georgia is the measure song. I figured it would be stairway to heaven. Only thing that bothers me about the displease song is johnny’s part is fiddle only and the devils move has guitar in it. Kinda really makes me sad that the hardest song isn’t a adjust guitar song even though it will be tough.
