Pros

Pay and benefits are good once youre paid according to your grade and what the market pays. Great opportunity for young talent. Friendly "doers" and great work colleagues in low to mid grade professionals. Great office space with bright modern feel.

Cons

Inexperienced people promoted rapidly above their management capabilities or experience. If your face doesnt fit anymore, they replace you with inexperienced imports. "Leaders" talk the talk but dont walk the walk. Cyclical 18 month re-orgs/restructure, driving highly experienced individuals with great management and leadership skills out the door and those that remain pick up huge work loads. 3 days in office Hybrid policy with mandate of either a Monday or a Friday being in the office. Managers who manage and dont lead, speaking up puts a target on your back, patients are at the heart, but financial targets take priority. Graduate schemes, VIE schemes and apprenticeships abound to keep headcount low and costs lower. Unclear vision or direction. Great place to learn how NOT to manage people.

Pros

Nice people to work with, not too pushy from direct supervisor

Cons

Pay is not as high as other big pharma, work culture starting to become toxic. We are starting to get more and more micromanaged in terms of needing to log exact work hours in the work computer. That becomes difficult when you are lab facing and not always on your laptop
