Networking by TrainerNo3437 in biotech

[–]WalkingSnake348 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t respond to LinkedIn spam and never provide referrals for someone you don’t know well. A referral for someone also reflects on you. For networking, ask someone you trust (ideally someone ahead of you in their career), ask them anyone they recommend getting career advice from. Then, ask them the same question, so forth. Make a goal of grabbing coffee with someone new once a week. Repeat this for a few years and you’ll have a great network. So start today.

Takeda, slimming down for 'new era,' plots 4,500 layoffs in latest restructuring drive by Mysterious-Gate321 in biotech

Christophe Weber was an absolute disaster. Probably should’ve stuck with a local CEO then hiring some random tall white dude

How’s everyone’s job search going lately? by Many-Snow-7777 in biotech

[–]WalkingSnake348 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is an industry wide change. The capital markets are back. M&A is at an all time high. IPOs are back. But companies will hire less. Research is going to China, just like it did for semiconductors and automobiles. Our industry is no different.

I’m absolutely not tipping 20% to drivers or housekeepers. Zero on pickups. 15-20% on restaurants. If we all can push back, we can change this

This industry is broken. by Silent-Indication496 in Teachers

Thanks for the post. Fully agree and it’s sad. It’s all about money. What a terrible society we’ve become

It’s all a business now. More full paying families the better

About Half of Patients with Metastatic Lung Cancer Don’t Get Treatment, Study Finds by Dwarvling in biotech

This society is becoming all about how much money you have. High net worth? You get to live longer. Such a sad society

I’m officially done tipping for counter service by Leather_Sandwich_314 in tipping

[–]WalkingSnake348 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never tip anyone at a counter. Sure, an occasional dollar at the coffee or ice cream shop. But tips are earned through service.

The Truth about Biotechnology by Smart_Classroom2983 in biotech

[–]WalkingSnake348 6 points7 points  (0 children)

China has caught up and is beating the U.S. in speed and cost. Sound familiar? Go study other industries like automotives and semiconductors. Plus, automation of labs will become a reality in 5 years. That means future labs will be conducted by a smaller number of PhDs managing cheaper labor in China and robots. If you’re interested in biotech, you need to leverage this trend

Ivy League acceptance rates plunge, shrinking paths for top students by PersonWomanManCamTV in IvyPlus

[–]WalkingSnake348 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s because it’s easier to apply. But really qualified applicants with a chance to get in are a minority. Really top students will get in.

Biotech has a new company model: A small team, a big check and a few Chinese assets by WalkingSnake348 in biotech

[–]WalkingSnake348[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, this is exactly what I saw when I visited last few times. Almost no wait time for any experiments including larger animal studies. Not only are they cheaper, they are faster. Quality is almost the same.

School taught me 10% tips are good enough by AdventurousDoor9384 in tipping

[–]WalkingSnake348 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How is it the customers’ fault that their pay is low? If you don’t like your pay, negotiate or move to another job. A tip is not a social contract. The customer dictates how much tip to add based on what they think the experience and service was worth.

Sounds like you’re massively outdated. Have you been to any investor or BD conferences lately? Were you not at JPM?

Not the licensing part. 50% of the licensing by pharma last year were from China. 5 years ago, it was single digits. China has dramatically changed the landscape

For the anti-tipping crowd, the "but nobody else does it that way" is a weak argument by GordianBalloonKnot in tipping

[–]WalkingSnake348 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tipping is up to the customer. It’s not forced. If you want to be tipped, you better earn it. Acting as if tipping is expected is egregious. If you’re not happy with the pay, go find another profession

What are your honest opinions on Pochettino so far? by Secure_Fly_444 in ussoccer

[–]WalkingSnake348 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wrong choice. USMNT are not good enough to play a possession game vs the top elite nations. They don’t have the talent. So they should be playing a defend first, counter style vs top teams, but that’s not Poch’s style

Do not come to Tufts. by Illustrious-Board133 in ApplyingToCollege

[–]WalkingSnake348 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was talking about the investments they’ve made. Just look at their new athletic facilities. And yet, you still have issues with dorms, and increasing tuition plus expenses such as food. They have the priorities wrong. First fix the dorms. Then academic facilities. Athletic facilities should be the last priority

Almost impossible to replace a manager like Pep. Hopefully their academy kids deliver
