Pharmaceutical microbiologists are subordinate to the firms they are employed by, so usually a firm’s challenges – and how they choose to address them – will dictate the challenges of its employees. Although there is some overlap between the challenges relevant to firms and to their microbiologists, there is some attendant level of misalignment that does need frank recognition, robust discussion and which necessarily demands reconciliation.
