Pros

* Highly intelligent, innovative people with a passion for rare disease and a laser focus on developing effective treatments * Strong sense of team and common mission despite enormous size of organization * Highly approachable senior leaders who openly communicate corporate strategies * Pace allows for strong work/life balance and flexibility to often work remote as needed

Cons

* Contractors are in place for years (sometimes 5-7+ years) with no opportunity to convert to full time; however sitting/ working side-by-side full time employees given the same work duties and having the same performance expectations * Non-FDA compliance driven functions lack creativity and innovation in designing new approaches to building efficiencies

Pros

Extensive and active employee resource groups, strong leadership development opportunities, clear company mission, gig opportunities that support career development, strong employee support through the ombuds office and compliance help line, and stable company portfolio.

Cons

No work-life balance considerations with hybrid work model, contradictions in company mission compared to policies (i.e., target to reduce carbon emissions with employee commuting to office as one of the top 5 causes but yet still requiring employees to commute to office 3 days a week), some office sites are not conducive to in office productivity (not enough privacy or space), compensation package is not competitive for MA pharmaceutical companies, long-term incentives have almost no value once they are vested, health care benefits require employees to jump through hoops to maximize discounts or qualify for coverage of certain medications, and accountability for department leadership to follow the corporate leadership pillars is inconsistent across departments.
