Pros
The people are great! Extremely helpful if you need to learn anything or want to learn more about different departments or areas. Benefits are very good and industry salaries are competitive. AstraZeneca is still developing many drugs and compounds and the R&D pipeline is very robust, as you can see if you've been following pharma news.
Cons
As with probably all large pharmaceutical companies, there can be a lot of bureaucracy and red tape to wade through. At the Waltham site, Oncology is king so other departments can sometimes feel sidelined.
