Pros

Easy hours if you don't want to work hard. People complain about how much they work, but coming from management consulting this seems like a cake walk. Exciting time with many new products being launched. People are friendly, excellent gym, and they offer sport programs.

Cons

Serious limitations on upward mobility. Some people here have been in the same mid-level role for 10+ years, with no hope of ever moving up (they just haven't realized it yet...) Company has been going through lots of transformation over the last 24 months, which has left a large number of people feeling insecure about their jobs.

Pros

Excellent compensation, benefits, and career development opportunities. Strong investment in innovation, patient-focused mission, and world-class manufacturing capabilities. The New Albany site offers exposure to complex biologics operations, large-scale capital projects, and opportunities to work alongside talented and dedicated professionals committed to delivering medicines to patients.

Cons

The culture and leadership experience became increasingly inconsistent during the last year. Decision-making often lacked transparency, priorities shifted frequently, and employee feedback did not always appear to be valued. The people-centered culture that attracted many long-tenured employees seemed to drift, resulting in reduced trust, lower engagement, and increased organizational uncertainty.
