The true joy of leadership should come from developing teams and contributing to the success of Ionis. When organizations empower their employees, incredible transformations can occur however bad leaders destroy great teams, causing the best employees to flee and others to lack motivation ultimately destroying the culture. THIS is what is happening here specifically in the commercial part of the organization. Senior level leaders (ES,CV, AS, JB) gaslighting and silencing people who don't share their same vision. Gaslighting can backfire! Ionis is not protecting its reputation and this is now damaging the trust to your employees. If this does not get stopped it will amplify and deepen causing more harm to this organization. Gaslighting is emotional abuse but it's being institutionalized. We are being gaslit to cover up misconduct, to protect reputations, to amplify promotions, specifically by the same male leaders that think they are being slick often showing up polished to those that 'matter' yet behind closed doors using their power to drive their agenda and bullying those out. This is a form of coercive control. Getting rid of gaslighting individuals actually builds a stronger reputation. When you choose integrity, transparency and accountability, it creates trust to your employees. To continue to allow this behavior at Ionis, is not just unethical, it's archaic and barbaric. It's undermining trust and destroying the very integrity we are trying to uphold. We know better and its time to do better Ionis.

^I agree with the above comment. I might add that every pharma company I've spoken with ranging from small-cap, mid-cap, and large-cap companies are mostly AI chasers. I am in a similar function as the original poster and asked about AI in every interview. I think almost all of them are overlooking glaring issues that exist with their culture, policies, processes, and products that are highly unlikely to be fixed by AI in the near-term. However, long-term AI investments are highly likely to be beneficial in terms of optimizations. If I was in big tech, I would not waste my time with most pharma company leadership unless they are like highly specialized VPs of analytics that have a lot of political weight for freedom to operate with big budgets for datasets and software packages.
