Anyone have insight into career trajectory if joining a patient access / support services team in pharma? How is this function normally perceived?

I’m also in consulting and haven’t worked at a manufacturer so take this with a grain of salt - but patient support is seen as a cost center, not a driver of sales. There are some companies where they have more sway but often the most budgets and power will still lie with marketing. That said I’d prefer an exit to PS vs. insights or many other areas. Is your consulting experience primarily in that function?

My wife makes good money, but I don't want her to carry our finances for long as we are a team. What jobs could I look to pivot to if I pivot? Thanks fishes!

Community, I’ve been meeting with a lot of people regarding next steps in my career. One of the best pieces of advice I received is to avoid micro-managing executive staff (agency leadership), as it puts downward and unwelcome pressure on people’s managers and ultimately oneself. Based on your experience in the last 2 years are there:
- Agencies you would steer clear from because their leadership micromanages
- Agencies you would recommend because their leadership gives you room to grow

Thx 🙏🏼

The difference in price is substantial – 2.5k for the traditional course vs 6k for the extended one. Any thoughts/recommendations on which one I should take?
