Pros

If you're 20-something and don't know what real collaboration looks like you'll be fine. If you like being told what to do and not being asked. If you like communicating only electronically this is the place for you. If you don't want to have a relationship with your supervisor or anyone in leadership, you'll fit just fine.

Cons

There are lots of good business people at Elanco today, just not very many who are dedicated to building capabilities in others. Too many people cite "the business pressures" are too great to focus on developing people. The manta is that showing that the acquisition of Novartis was a profitable decision is the only thing that matters. Many Millennials are quick to realize that this is not the place for them and leave within 3-4 years. The leadership of Elanco was fine for a company who was 500-1000 employees, but is really struggling to lead an organization that is 7000 employees.
