Currently working in big pharma in brand marketing, specifically payer marketing (market access). I’m looking for a new role that offers more flexible work arrangements with potential remote work opportunities. Any suggestions?

But I wonder… how is consulting more flexible than pharma? I believe ppl are going the opposite way for flexibility

Different type of flexibility - many agency’s and consulting firms allow remote work, you’ll likely trade off some increase in hours on the job

Pivot to consulting, I know my company is hiring and market is red hot from what I've seen. Most if not all I've seen are remote

It depends 🙃

I know at Janssen, the payer marketing roles are notorious for WLB and everything should have been done yesterday, so I really empathize with you. However, payer marketing or market access roles in most big pharma have challenging WLB. Remote though is possible across many big pharma though it’s very role specific and often agreed upon during interview process. I spent few years in consulting and then moved to industry, and can share my experience that no matter how much flexibility/$$$ consulting offers, ultimately $$$/hour is way worse in consulting than industry.

Anyone a manager? I’m recently diagnosed (26F) and I can’t help but beat myself up everytime I fall short of my to do list. Makes me feel like a huge disservice to my team. I’ve been trying vitamin D and working out, but it makes my “highs” and “low” SO extreme. The simplest things are so complex in my mind.

If anyone feels similar, how do you manage these feelings? I’m personally considering switching to an individual contributor role, but can’t help but feel like a disappointment if I do.
