Pros

The current disease portfolio can impact positively patient lives

Cons

They treat humans very badly. It can all start very nice, but quite fast, HR and top management can use the opportunity to take advantage of yourself. Bad contractual practices, worst work-life balance, non meaningful projects. There is a French male sexism quite set in the organisation. If you are a women and not french you shouldn’t join

Pros

The recruiter that I worked with was wonderful and very in tuned with my career goals and the type of team I wanted to be a part of. He answered all of my questions in a timely manner and was transparent on which roles he felt would be a good match based on the leadership, team, and career aspirations.

Cons

I did not have any cons related to my experience.

Pros

None, I cannot think of one pro.

Cons

The worst experience in my 15 plus career in pharma. The managers are horrible, they work you to death and show zero appreciation. I was so thankful I was a temp, as I would never have wanted to be a full time after what I experienced. It's basically a hot mess of bullying by managers and the Sr. Director's have poor SVPs they report into so it makes sense they management style is horrid.
