Pandering

For the love of all things holy, lay off the LGBTQ+ posts on LinkedIn!
We get it. It’s Pride Month. We need to appease the <1%’ers or the World will stop spinning.
Can we just try to focus on our business instead of social movements for a change?!?! In case you missed it, we’ve got bigger issues than whether or not we kiss up to the spotlight if the month BS!

I think you are vastly overestimating the amount of effort it takes for Alkermes to be slightly less shitty by acknowledging Pride Month for lgbtq employees, prospective talent, business partners, investors, customers, and patients.

Maybe YOU should focus on the business instead of posting on cafepharma because you’re insecure and butthurt. You’re gonna get your paycheck regardless, so just relax.

Back the F off, Mr/Mss Alphabet Soup! Is anything the poster said untrue? Our business is crumbling around us and the only thing we are interested in is putting on a happy face so that we can appear to be as "inclusive" as possible. Just get off the social justice train and do your damn job. If someone wants to be sure they are part of something special that works, check your ego at the door and just do the job you were hired to do. We don't need your griping and moaning about your personal life or your trying to jam it down our throats.

I wonder what would happen if all the pharma companies just decided one day to shit can the social justice charade and just focus on the business. No more DEI VP/directors/managers. No more rainbow anything. No more bowing to BLM, BIPOC, AAPI, Latinx, or any of the other assorted tribal councils. What would happen? Would the business dry up? Would drug manufacturers be boycotted out of existence? I’ll tell you what would happen. NOTHING. The industry leaders could fire all the HR/DEI Gestapo agents, take their preferred pronouns off their business cards and LinkedIn profiles and focus on innovation and research to develop new and meaningful therapies. Profits would grow and share prices rise. More patients would be helped. Everyone wins!

Needs to be copied on all pharma sites. J&J in particular. Well said.

I think you're underestimating the effect such pandering has on the morale of the 67% of the people who work here that don't agree with it. Most are for equality but "celebrating" it is another story. Can't wait to go to the home office next week and sit in on one of tge drag show lunches. Honestly! Enough is enough.
Sincerely, The Majority of your Employees
Pronouns: Fed-up/Had Enough
