"Multi-disciplinary" = variety pack?
ReplyDeleteThis sounds a lot like the development program where I work.
ReplyDeleteYou may mock the delivery, but the folks that land these gigs tend to be land on the career fast-track.
Yes, I can believe that.
Delete"tend to be on..."
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like the perfect opportunity to become a highly paid manager ten years down the road. In fact, this might be better than that stupid MBA I was thinking about. However, I don't have 'industrial' pharma experience and I'm not single, so going away for long periods of time... is something I would have to clear up with my management. Dammit.
ReplyDeleteAlso, I think kudos is code-word for 'Moh-ney'. Well, I know I wouldn't care as much about other types of kudos I could get from GSK.
Dude, you totally put me in the mood for Kudos. Kudos! YEEAHHH!!! AW-RIGHT!!! GET SOME!!! GET SOME!!!
ReplyDeleteDo chemists at GSK chest-bump and high-five? How exactly is "Esprit" pronounced? Es-pree? Ee-sprit?
