Hi all,

Is anyone here in biopharma? Has anyone made a transition from food to pharma or vice versa? 

 

What are the similarities and pros/cons in these two industries? 

 

I'd love to hear what you guys think even if you have been in only either of them. 

Thank you for your input!

I've actually been thinking of making this move.  There are a lot of bio-tech firms in the Bay Area, Ca and it seems a great amount are hiring, pay scales seem very broad.  I have a friend who works for a major BT firm and he transitioned from the healthcare industry.  Other than starting out at various off hours to build tenure they enjoy the work and through our discussions seems there are a lot of parallels from the food sector to BT.  

 

I am interested in this topic as well, might be some valued persuasion.  

 

Thanks for posting kconf!
