Pros

Depending on the group, the colleagues are very friendly and collaborative. Work-life balance is important, and flexible work schedules are common..

Cons

There are too many conflicts between individuals in upper management leading to disfunctional project teams. The drug candidates have potential, but there isn't much experience in-house to take the products to late stage development. There are more directors and VPs than most companies this size.

Pros

The pipeline of upcoming therapies is good

Cons

The commercial analytics team operates in a challenging and often unsustainable environment. Priorities frequently shift without clear rationale, leading to reactive work cycles and limited ability to execute long-term strategy. There is a consistent gap between leadership expectations and available resources, which results in heavy workloads and a culture where long hours feel normalized. Recognition and constructive feedback are inconsistent, making it difficult for employees to understand how to grow or succeed. Concerns around management practices also impact morale. Experiences across the team suggest that junior employees and consultants are not always supported or treated with the level of respect expected in a healthy work environment. These issues are not isolated and appear to be systemic within parts of the organization.
