Pluspunten

One of the major pharmaceutical companies in the world. Until the Vioxx scandal was considered one of the most respected pharmaceutical companies. Salary, facilities, opportunity for research and publications are nice.

Minpunten

Massive layers of managers who do the least amount of work while garnering the most compensation. Pretty much like every corporation in America, and as long as you can become one of them you'll be fine. If not, then be prepared to be treated unfairly. Managers also brazenly attempt to attach their names to patents and publications even when they had little or no justification other than being in your line management. Workers are afraid to challenge this fact for fear of being given poor career advancement or even worse being downsized. Politics are more important than getting work done.

Pluspunten

Over my tenure, I had the opportunity to work alongside highly talented and mission-driven colleagues dedicated to improving patient outcomes. The organization provided exposure to cross-functional collaboration, leadership development opportunities, and meaningful work supporting healthcare providers, patients, and community stakeholders. I appreciated the company's commitment to innovation, professional growth, and serving patients through scientific advancement.

Minpunten

Like many large organizations, priorities and organizational structures evolved over time, which occasionally created uncertainty and changes in responsibilities. Decision-making processes could sometimes be complex due to the size of the organization, and navigating multiple layers of stakeholders occasionally impacted speed and execution.
