Pluspunten
To quickly go through the pros of working for Sanofi: - Great middle management and excellent upper management willing to meet with even new associates to give advice, network, and just exchange pleasantries. - Flexible-ish working hours (if you come in early, a lot of times you can level early, and vice-versa). - Nice, friendly younger associates, contractors, and temps (all ages 21 to 25), but with some problems with the lower managers who lead them (see cons below).
Minpunten
In our organization, lower to lower-middle management often consists of individuals in their late 20s to early 30s who may exhibit some power dynamics despite having only 2-5 more years of experience than their subordinates. Compensation varies significantly, with associates, temps, and contractors earning between $60K and $90K annually, depending on their level and department. While this pay is reasonable, it falls short compared to those with just a couple of years more experience, who can earn between $75K and $100K. Furthermore, individuals with 3 or more years of experience often start at $100K, with some earning upwards of $150K or $200K in special cases. I'll simply finish by saying if you are willing to tough it out and do the grunt work for the first 3-6 months that you are here, you should be able to get promoted in a year (that is what I'm on track for I believe). And, by about one to two years, you'll be in more secure / senior-esque role that is paying you at least 12K more a year. What you want to deal with and for how long (in a tough job market) is up to you though.
