Pharma is more mentally challenging. And I feel like I’m doing good in the world helping sick people find medicine that can help them live a better life

I worked in pharma for a while. The deep research and juggling FDA regulations was intellectually stimulating. The work ended up being the same 5 things every time anyway. The money wasn’t much better, either.

I never felt like I was making the world a better place, because pharma work falls into 4 categories: 1) the drug works to treat something significant, 2) the drug only kinda works to treat something significant, 3) the drug works on a condition that’s questionable, 4) the drug only kinda works to treat a condition that’s questionable.

Category 1 work is great, but not usually creatively fulfilling. Category 2 work (like a drug that offers minimal life extension for people with late stage cancer) is hard but sometimes there are glimmers of light. Category 3 work makes you feel like a snake oil salesman. Category 4 work gives you an inner monologue that sounds like RFK Jr.

There’s also the subset of work where the drug works but the side effects are worse than the initial illness, like the anti smoking medication that caused suicidal ideation.

I mean, could just be quitting smoking causing the suicidal ideation if I know smokers, but yeah

As someone who has had autoimmune illnesses my whole life, all the ads for Enbrel, Humira, Xeljanz, Cosentyx, Rinvoq, etc. were never the reason my doctor prescribed them or the reason my insurance denied them. They may have been the reason they cost $20k/month though!

No question. CPG will use more of your creative skills. Pharma is more constrained, more rules to follow.

Question for auditors:

What level of assurance would a public company audit provide around proof of reserves of Coinbase (or any publicly listed digital asset exchange business)?

i.e. if I have BTC (nothing else) sitting there, can am I assured they have 1:1 reserves to what my wallet balance is?

Hi guys,

I switched 20 days back to Optum. I have 7 years of experience working as a full stack Engineer, who is passionate working on both front end and back end on latest technologies. But my project is working only on back end with 10 years old tech stack. There is no front end work at all. What should I do?
I don't like working here at all, but I am not sure whether moving out again in a month will give bad Impression on my resume. Hence please give me advice on this situation

I have a great opportunity on the table that’s currently work remote with the end goal of returning to the office 1-2 times a week when it’s safe. However, after the past couple months, I don’t see myself returning to live in the big city. Has anyone requested to work fully/mostly remote with a new offer? How did it go? How did you request it so it seems beneficial? Thanks 🙏🏼
