Pros

they match 5% of 401K

Cons

managers like to micro manage your everyday activities. salary is just OK. some are underpaid. raise is not based on your performance but if you are liked by the manager. minor races may be treated different compare to major ones. Although someone may perform worse than you but if the manager likes him, he still get the raise but you are not!

Pros

Excellent compensation, benefits, and career development opportunities. Strong investment in innovation, patient-focused mission, and world-class manufacturing capabilities. The New Albany site offers exposure to complex biologics operations, large-scale capital projects, and opportunities to work alongside talented and dedicated professionals committed to delivering medicines to patients.

Cons

The culture and leadership experience became increasingly inconsistent during the last year. Decision-making often lacked transparency, priorities shifted frequently, and employee feedback did not always appear to be valued. The people-centered culture that attracted many long-tenured employees seemed to drift, resulting in reduced trust, lower engagement, and increased organizational uncertainty.
