Pros

Very Good Benefits, and good work/life balance overall.

Cons

Poor management of people and their careers. For an individual's performance, much more weight is given to hearsay of others instead of direct knowledge of individual's work, the individual's team, the individual's direct reports, and their manager. Too much upper management infighting and favoritism of certain workers by management. Unusual number of people that end up leaving after short while. Poor consideration of different working styles. Although some directors are good leaders there are too many that are poor leaders that have been there for too long.

Pros

Good benefits (9% 401k match, company car, solid insurance). Huge company with many therapeutic areas you can choose from. I like my coworkers.

Cons

Employee stock purchase plan is nice in theory, but stock has treaded water for many years. A very big company with lots of big pharma metrics to meet. Pay is maybe slightly below industry average.

Pros

Nice people to work with, not too pushy from direct supervisor

Cons

Pay is not as high as other big pharma, work culture starting to become toxic. We are starting to get more and more micromanaged in terms of needing to log exact work hours in the work computer. That becomes difficult when you are lab facing and not always on your laptop
