Pharmaceuticals (Female) 2020

The pharmaceuticals benchmark covers organizations that are involved in the development, production and marketing of pharmaceutical drugs and medicines. They employ cohorts of highly educated, expert technical staff who are engaged in lab research, who are backed by office-based business employees, such as sales, marketing and administration. This benchmark only includes Women employees. We use woman and man because most of our customers are using binary options.

We consider this an emerging benchmark: it has enough data available for us to use bootstrapping to create a representative sample. As the sample grows in size, some scores may slightly change. Our research has shown that our bootstrapped scores are consistent with our standard benchmarks. Read more about the methodology.
