If the scientists were shareholders of AGN at 300 they're doing fine. If the scientists who now work, and wish to continue doing so, for a lawyer and a guy who both doesn't understand and doesn't appreciate R&D well, they're SOL.
Someone should give those guys smile practice before they take any more photos---and maybe a couple of phonebooks for Ian Read to stand on.
They should dress like a leprechaun and wield a shillelagh. Because they're definitely, definitely an Irish company. If any IRS people are asking. "Faith and begorrah!"
But if we just lowered our corporate tax rate to less than that of everyone else, everything would be fine. Because races to the bottom can be won, and no one would in turn undercut us.

I used to think the Pfizer motto was "resistance is pfutile, you will be assimilated"... but with this reverse merger, I think they're better off with this:
If PI's at universities don't get enough American's to fill positions at the wages they offer they will be happy to get college graduates from overseas. Its globalization.

ReplyDeleteI thought that they were leprechaun tax lawyers....can they lead us to their pots of gold? Or maybe those are now in the NYC HQ?

ReplyDelete"Hello. We're Pfizer, and we are indeed riding on the Highway to Hell. Won't you (well, some of you) join us? This handbasket's got lots of room."
Delete(Dr. Lowe suggested "Highway to Hell" a long time ago as a preferred corporate theme song. Don't tell me it doesn't fit them.)
Good callback.

ReplyDeleteHave you heard of the new 2015 book, "Sold Out" by Michelle Malkin, in which H1b's feature prominently?
ReplyDeleteSold Out: How High-Tech Billionaires & Bipartisan Beltway Crapweasels Are Screwing America’s Best & Brightest Workers
http://michellemalkin.com/2015/11/09/sold-out-how-high-tech-billionaires-bipartisan-beltway-crapweasels-are-screwing-americas-best-brightest-workers/
Also a book excerpt in the New York Post:

How American workers are being sold out
By Michelle Malkin and John Miano
"From the 'Happiest Place on Earth' to Silicon Valley and across the Heartland, American's high skilled workers are getting screwed."
I have not read the book, but thumbed through a copy. Will have to read more closely to see if there is any mention of chemists.
