Pros

Because of the pandemic, Amgen did improve on empowering their employees to prioritize their wellbeing. Campus is beautiful and nice benefits.

Cons

Very demanding, which in my opinion may illicit a competitive nature amongst staff, which I didn't care for. Pretty difficult to move up compared to other organizations I've worked at. Diversity and inclusion is a bit lacking - in 2020, there was a lot more access to DEI material but it didn't last.
