CSL reviews

Liked the culture and the people

DEI: ever since the new HR director joins, the company has been better with recognizing female scientists , contractor/admin roles, making sure the workplace is free of harassment/ discrimination. DEI at Seqirus is more employee-led, so it's not perfect. But has good progress. Structure: lean company although CSL is big. Which de-risk the company from lay-offs and etc. I'm glad this company is not "delusional" about growing the company head counts exponentially. Personal Growth: because the company is so lean, young professionals can have individual , semi-impactful projects with mentorship. Colleagues: there are a lot of competent people with good integrity and genuine intentions toward helping others and making the company grow. This is also a place that you can establish life-long friendships, since you work very closely with everyone. Of course, there are a few exceptions which I will not talk in this section. Senior Leadership at the HQ: very competent and smart. They rolled out new EMA/UK MHRA/ FDA approved products every year. However, a lot of the new products they commercialized is through licensing agreement/ collaboration but not through their own R&D department. I'm assuming they are good with strategy development but not the best in terms of R&D from the ground up. Will talk more about that in the cons section.
