Going to the government sector is the dumbest thing you can do as any graduate unless you are a scholar. If you are not on the scholar tread, your performance does not matter as you can never exceed a certain rank and pay. It is for those without ambition or drive to work and just want a iron rice bowl to work till they grow old.
Either u dont live in Singapore or u r going all out to troll

Btw, to the dude who says pharma creates medicine for the betterment of the world, please take a look at the latest news. Pfizer buying over Allergan. The ramifications include pushing up drug prices, and consolidating healthcare sector fields just to name a few.

Really? For the betterment of the world? Or to form a super big cartel to fight Norvartis? Either way we can see all this is profit driven.

Providing medicine but at what cost? How much do they sell them? It is of no value if your medicine can cure illness, but only to those who can afford them. And that is the reality of almost all big pharma companies. If you truly want to talk about those research, I believe basic research are the ones who attempt to solve those simple problems, that truly benefit the world. But of course, basic research usually resides in IHLs and research institutes funded by government or VWO, and are not that fixated on B2B. In pharma, it is all about the value to translate to an actual product no?

Btw QC/QA and the likes are niche areas, and usually people who are into those tend to specialize in them for years. I doubt it is your everyday event that a person can be rotated around lab and onto management/corporate track. Makes absolutely no sense as these are roles that are specialised, and once you've trained them, you hardly want to take them off elsewhere.

You can say that the government seems to be working more for PAP, but that is only because PAP is the ruling party. In truth, the system is such that regardless of the ruling party, Singapore will continue to function as per normal. The system truly is for the benefit of Singapore. But as with politics, it is inevitable that certain mileage be squeezed for political brownies.




Clearly, you don't know anything about pharma and is definitely not from pharma industry. Lab roles like chemist or microbio can move up to lab manager if you have the necessary skillset and experience. subsequently, will also have chance to rotate around different managerial role in different dept in the quality spectrum eg, like validation or compliance or even operations. Definitely don't need phd or masters to achieve that.

Ha ha to that. It will still be around the technical aspect of a research and laboratory no? It definitely isn't rotating into corporate function of a company. Dude, pharma don't pay you big bucks for you to learn on the job. You are being paid big bucks because you excel at your job (I hope!).

Not really, it's quite common for people to rotate different departments in big mncs. When you reach middle manager level (20-30k range) its leadership and strategy skills that count, not technical certs.
