Pros

Very good working conditions, including income. Excellent cooperation among the team I worked for. Multinational working organization, which improves outcome results.

Cons

Maybe a too big company, with all the problems it brings. Excess of formality with the hierarchy. Hierarchic structure not always based on competence.

Experience as an intern at Sanofi Aventis

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Sanofi-Aventis is a great place to work. People are really welcoming and your manager is always trying to challenge you in order to improve your skills. The atmosphere is great and we are not just colleagues but also friends.

Cons

While I was doing my internship at Sanofi, I was quite disappointed by the salary. I was not paid that much but I could have access to the cafeteria. The salary couldn't help me pay my rent.

Get carried away with their global status but in UK they are small and have no employee brand

Department head

Business Outlook

Pros

There were some good people but most left on voluntary redundancy or those who didnt get lucky resigned with no pay off. Great that they pay for parking for all staff Nice "human touches" like a present at Christmas Superb that they still pay a Christmas bonus

Cons

They are not good at rewarding those that deliver- focus is more on faces fitting so keep in with the "leadership" team. Lots of parochialism with "leadership" team looking after their own personal interests rather than the good of the company. Little freedom in the UK with lots of decisions not taken in case Paris has a different view
