Pros

- Competitive Salary - Interesting products - Some lovely and talented teams

Cons

Unfortunately Ipsen has becoming more and more about metrics with little focus on people or the customers needs. There has been an increasing amount of micro-management and a steady decline in autonomy as things have moved to a virtual world - I feel less and less trusted in my role. Management does not take feedback productively and instead blames the employees for any issues and suggests it is that teams fault. Those in management roles don't listen to feedback from customers either and instead form their own opinions on what is happening. It feels as though very little progress is ever achieved as materials are delayed and the strategy constantly changes to suit other agendas making it difficult to understand the bigger picture. It also feels as though you are expected to "check in” on emails and phones when on annual leave and that you should not be taking time off.

The recruiter that I worked with was wonderful and very in tuned with my career goals and the type of team I wanted to be a part of. He answered all of my questions in a timely manner and was transparent on which roles he felt would be a good match based on the leadership, team, and career aspirations.

Cons

I did not have any cons related to my experience.

Pros

Ipsen continues to offer a mission‑driven environment where teams are genuinely committed to improving outcomes for patients and society, and that sense of purpose shows up in the day‑to‑day culture. Collaboration across functions is strong, and there are meaningful opportunities to contribute to strategy, development, and cross‑functional problem‑solving. We have an amazing team filled with valuable talents.

Cons

The pace of change and evolving priorities can sometimes create ambiguity, and some processes still require tighter alignment to reduce friction and improve consistency. Development pathways and communication around long‑term strategy can feel uneven depending on the team. However, Ipsen remains a place where impact, collaboration, and purpose are real strengths, with room to continue strengthening operational clarity and consistency as the organization grows, which is an achievement.
