Most professional consulting
groups have all commented about the serious shortfall of working for a
biopharma company. A biopharma professional developed a list of the
most common complaints about working in marketing for pharma. Here is the
list…
1ne: Too many damn meetings!
By far this is the top complaint we have heard. Pharma companies are
matrix organizations which means meetings, a lot of meetings usually taking up
employee calendars for days and weeks.
2wo Takes too long to
implement programs. This is a complaint I
usually hear from digital marketers. Digital marketing is about
implementing with speed and testing new things. Unfortunately, pharma tends to
move at a snails pace which frustrates employees.
