KBI Biopharma

This company is a bunch of ex-Amgen cronies trying their hand at Contract Manufacturing. Will they succeed?

 

I doubt it. The folks running things over there are part of the "B-" team, not the "A" team from Amgen. Time will tell.

 

If you see any one with Ex-Amgen, run!!!!

They have the worst talent in the industry

 

Joe is part of the candidate screening process so you betcha he likes it this way.

 

It is not as if all the cheatin' gals are exactly stunners here...

 

I guess you don't have to be HOT, just WILLING...I feel sorry for the women that work there and what they must be feeling/thinking/wondering. Complete unprofessionalism!!

 

good opportunity or what?

 

Unethical behavior from management leads to an unethical business culture. In biotech no one can afford to take a risk that your data lacks integrity or that compliance standards will not be followed. That is the current state perception of KBI. There are many high-integrity CROs/CMOS out there. KBI does NOT seem to be one of them.

 

Correct but how could you ever change the ingrown behavior here? The spreaders all have new cars as their reward and still remain employed and in good standing. The reward system here is totally screwed - no pun intended.

 

This company has no products. They have no skin in the game and only collect money from those that do (in part that is the problem! It breeds bad behavior and a lack of collaboration). From reading these other threads it seems there are other current personnel problems both up and down the food chain. (???) So.....just don't take a risk with giving them you business until they make significant changes.

 

We just hired a fresh supply of ladies! Let the games begin!

 

It's like a soap opera. These folks must have a lot of time on their hands if they have time for work place philandering. Anyone with any moral values should steer clear of this place.

 

What is defamation, libel and slander?
Whether you are the victim of internet defamation or being wrongfully accused of internet defamation, you need to understand the law. In order for a comment, post or article to constitute internet libel, the following elements must typically be met:

1. The first thing you must prove is that the statement constitutes a false statement of fact. A fact is different than an opinion. A fact can be proven true or false. Opinions are typically not actionable as defamation.
2. The false statement of fact must harm your reputation. There are many false statements posted across the internet. In order to constitute libel, a statement must not only be false but must harm you or your company’s reputation and cause harm.
3. The false statement of fact causing harm must be made without adequate due diligence or research into the truthfulness of the statement. Alternatively, plaintiffs often attempt to prove that the false statement of fact was made with full knowledge of its falsity.
4. If the person who is the subject of the false statement of fact is a celebrity or public official, the plaintiff must also prove “malice.” Malice is proven when the person posting the information on the internet intended to do harm or acted with reckless disregard of the truth in making the statements.

There is often confusion about the differences between defamation, libel and slander. In many ways, courts treat defamation on the internet similar to off-line defamation. But there are differences which you need to understand when the false statements are made on-line.

1. Defamation: An unprivileged false statement of fact which tends to harm the reputation of a person or company. This is a catch-all term for both libel and slander.
2. Libel: Defamation which is written such as on a web site. Most on-line defamation occurs through libel by posting a web page, comment, bulletin board post, review, rating or blog post.
3. Slander: Defamation that is spoken such as through an transcribed video, podcast or audio file.

 

Looks Like someone is trying to help.

 

So, who is having an affair with who over there? The rumors are rampant...

 

Hi,

I am thinking of working at KBI and just found this thread and as a woman whatever this is is alarming to me. Can someone explain what the whole "gals" thing is? How do you know about this? First hand, second hand, etc.? Which campus are people referring to, the Durham or Boulder one? Both? Any clarification would be greatly appreciated! This makes me very nervous! Why can't I just do science without worrying about harassment??? So tired of this shit.

 

Interesting that someone who works there would gossip and undermine the group. Why not just leave? Find a job that matches your high "values", if that's really the issue. It's no different than anywhere else-a collection of people.
