Pros

Amgen is such a large facility. I was really looking for something stable. I was not interested in starting and getting laid off. Hopefully, it is behind all of us

Cons

You can get lost and not get anywhere unless you have a Phd.

Pros

Great Benefits package Great opportunities to move within the company When the company is doing well it takes care of its employees but when its not doing well, it doesn't care that much

Cons

Senior Management is not that great Many decisions that are made by the senior management are not well taken by the people in the company, also senior management is over compensated.

Pros

Amgen has a great pipeline and wonderful employee benefits. Working on diverse new drug targets. Fabulous biologics production capabilities. Expect approval of new drug in Q4 '09.

Cons

Layoffs are happening quitely. More jobs are being outsourced. Hiring and promotions are frozen. There is lots of talk about individual development, but no budget and no promotional opportunities.
