Pfizer's Presidnt of R&D Mackay - "a wonderful database of failures,"


During Martin Mackay's 12-year stint as a research executive at Pfizer, he felt suffocated by what he calls "a morass of committees."

Megamergers with Warner-Lambert and Pharmacia had saddled the pharmaceutical giant with so many layers of superfluous managers that its researchers spent much of their time shuttling between meetings.

Now Mackay is exacting his revenge.

Businessweek has the interview.

Pfizer is, was, and always will be a politics first, data second corporation.
