I learned a ton; leadership was disorganized - Senior Scientist AstraZeneca Employee Review

Management seemed to have no idea what to do with the money they were investing in research. There were many people who did not know why they were working on the projects they were given. Top leadership has no technical expertise. Some of the directors create an incredibly toxic work environment (physical intimidation; threats of firing for no good reason; pitting employees against each other) and get away with it. I also witnessed managers just ignoring their direct reports or allowing them to not show up to work chronically.
