Pluspunten
-Pay is high -Individual contributors tend to be great people -Some groups are better than others…although that divide has closed significantly in the years I worked there. Historically, Product Development and the early R&D groups were better than the Commercial group (scientists vs sales)
Minpunten
-Leadership takes zero accountability but constantly tells you to take more of it. It’s a manipulation tactic to get people to keep doing more with less. -Burnout culture; they will squeeze you dry and ask for more. Repeatedly. -Obsessed with stacking leadership frameworks on top of each other, leading to a perpetual state of semi confusion and lack of progress. I’ve never seen so many HBR subscriptions put to good use by leadership. -Stopped developing groundbreaking meds a very long time ago, now they just buy late stage molecules. -Not a good place for POCs, especially the Commercial org. They will put you on a glass cliff and watch you fall off. They do not care about veterans or other underrepresented groups either. -Each part of the org is so siloed that you’ll be doing the same thing as numerous other teams, and no one will be aware of the other teams doing the exact same things. Massive misalignment and business inefficiencies usually result. -There are almost no opportunities to move up. -You will likely be RIFd at some point. -Managers are widely acknowledged as being some the worst. This is openly discussed in every part of the org. and has been for at least a decade.
