Employee Stories - Bristol Myers Squibb

It took Axel a while to ask for help.

What brought me to see a doctor was a self-examination.

We know there is more to do for patients.

This is my new body.

My grandmother’s diagnosis changed how I look at my job. 

Like my mother said, ‘one day at a time.’

We really banded together to survive.

Our job is to focus on serious disease.

Really awed and proud of all the work we are doing.

It makes me feel good about bringing options my dad didn't have.

To be my best, to give my best, every day.

I feel very strongly on the need to help folks.

I help people like them, have a second chance.

There’s nothing harder to see than your baby so sick.

What I thought was happening in my life suddenly changed.

Perhaps one day we may be able to treat cancer as if it were a chronic disease, and not terminal as we think it is today.

I had conversation with them that was almost like a last conversation.

It makes you think about what's important.

I feel in many ways that he is sitting on my shoulder and encouraging me.

I am very proud of the products that Bristol Myers Squibb makes.

Once I wasn't afraid, I was able to fight the disease.
