AZ Oncology

Quote

Most of us on this site (employees and not trolls or bots) are low level
Sales folks. We may have achieved the highest rank of sales pro, but we are still
The bottom group of rungs on the slimy corporate PHARMA ladder.

That being said, only a few of us will
Have the ability to quit this gig.

We are paid very well for what we do. Yes, some folks have great relationships, access and maybe even work a resemblance of a full day every once in a while.

This industry has created their Frankenstein Lunch Boy/Girl/Person and they/she/he/it or whatever is gonna continue to drive the company car (EV or not) and do what is told. The only difference is Frankenstein has morphed into Karenstein so now we listen to how bad we are being treated…

Go find another job remotely close to this location me in hours/pay/stress and then you can come back and get us with your pitchforks and led lanterns

Chatrick being gone is a blessing. That guy has about as much business having sales report to him as Ashley G does. Which is to say none.

He was brought in to do Dave’s dirty work to the sales team. It was delayed by Covid, which gave Kevin L and his mistress an opportunity to sell him on Project North Star. That was nothing more than a reshuffling of the deck chairs, just like what happens in every organization when a new guy comes in. The fact that he could virtue signal to Dave’s virtue signaling by also eliminating 14 white men over 50, enabled by our post George Floyd DEI hysteria, was an added bonus for him.

That being done, Chatrick and some of his lackeys like Katy M then shuffle off to do nothing global roles. Mohit comes in and further enables inept leaders like Diep C (the mistress) to run more people off and hand pick her “managers”, all of whom lack the skill required for the role and the will to tell her she doesn’t know what she’s doing. And why does she get to do this? Because Kevin L fell on her sword and Mohit doesn’t want to get rid of her. Why? Because he's enabled her horrible behavior and he knows all about the unethical behavior that continued under his watch.

So it’s come full circle that Project North Star is dead and a major part of the toxicity is being shuffled from the northeast to the southeast.

And all of this is being overshadowed by the incredible success of the science of AZ. Just like Pascal said it would when he showed up and told Pfizer to sit down.

How much longer does Pascal get to skate by on the Pfizer thing? He did a good job navigating that at the time but it was years ago now and the stock price is cratering.

Seems to be, he made the decision to go all on on China despite the significant geopolitical risk and now AZ employees in China have their personal safety endangered and and share holders are getting crushed. I do believe what is going on in China is more nonsense and a shakedown by a rogue government there than anything but it doesn't really matter when you choose to do business in a country with no real tangible laws and that arbitrarily does whatever it wants.

There is a reason many other pharma companies have hedged their bets when it comes to doing business there and foreign companies are leaving in droves. Pascal better hope the stock price plunge reverses soon or China may ultimately be his undoing.

People see what goes on and act accordingly. They’ve seen that AZ Ethics and compliance are nothing more than words on paper that Pascal can point to when needed to give the illusion of AZ being an ethical company.

Is the company as a whole unethical? No. Is everyone that works there? Of course not. But the company has allowed enough people in the US and obviously in China to get away with things that should have been, at a minimum, stopped if not punished. In reality if people had been punished accordingly then fewer would think they could get away with what they’ve done.

The focus in Oncology post 2020 has been DEI, telling everyone that they harbor unconscious biases (funny how those telling us that we have this never admit to having it themselves) and covering up unethical behavior among senior leaders. It’s no wonder things have turned out the way they have. If it weren’t for the science you‘d think Dave Brennan was still in charge.
 
Too funny, AZ same shit as all big pharma, with a better pipeline for now. If you want to work harder for a chance for more money go to a start up. If you want to enter fake calls and get paid a lot of money for doing admin, stick around az. Leadership is so stupid it’s mind boggling. All pascal cares about is how many tax shelters he can find through any kind of sustainability initiatives or Dei initiative. 80 billion by 2030! Woohoo!
 
Mass exodus of DEI hires. Let's face it, we managed the optics and beefed up our numbers for the wrong reasons. We are in a place where suddenly everyone is being held accountable and people are being exposed (i.e. an Onc rep. running a resale on-line sneaker store) busted!
