Not surprising about OBU
It was one of JS’s downfalls at Genentech I heard. If he was smart, he would have learned...sounds like he surrounded himself with Genentech’s throwaways

Ha-ha, very funny HQ insider! I think you meant 0.8 out of 10. You have to remember we don’t actually want to be big pharma, so being big pharma is bad.

Watching the Shire NSM going down from afar is entertaining.

I was at one of the small, fun and well-paying biotechs that Shire bought.

Heard all about the Swan & Dolphin shitshow and luckily found another job well before I had to go.

How can you people stand to work af a company that is so cheap and uptight that they don’t serve booze and decent wine at the bar? Hell, my primary care job 20 years ago had open bar and Silver Oak.

And howth Perry’s lithp?

Lack of clear direction on how we are going to be successful

Today at NSM was the best. Overall the meeting is achieving a 7.5.

Been with Shire 5 years and this was one of the best NSM, thanks meeting planners! On the way home now!

Let me guess, the difference this time was no more Kobe? Five years means you missed the Yasick years and those were the best meetings by far.

I thought the meeting was OK. Again, remember these meetings are a tax write-off; follows a different budget line in accounting.

My thought is; as 4 yr Shire rep I was networking and building by “mentors” I came to something that appeared off to me..

Leadership continues to discuss “building out a new company(NBU). Need the growth to “fund” future endeavors in the NBU space.. umm, hasn’t the NBU already been doing this— without it, we NEVER get into Rare Diseases, Opth etc.

So I have to agree with many “mentors” those comments were HIGHLY OFFENSIVE to those that have been at Shire for a bit, and have already “built” the NBU and beyond.. I can totally see how that irks some of the senior reps.
