Pros

Great benefits package; company is supportive of healthy lifestyle by offering premium benefits. Training & development opportunities are provided and stressed but employee must take responsibility for development.

Cons

Global company is still realigning all locations to "one company". There is a lot of confusion within employee base as to whom their management chain is, where they belong functionally. Changes to company mgt chain & priorities is constant - management changes every few years. Company policies are not consistent throughout locations causing employee dissatisfaction. Recognition is lackluster and varies greatly between departments. Salary increases do not keep up with market value. Changing jobs with increased responsibilities or gaining direct reports is not reflected in salary level.

Pros

Extensive and active employee resource groups, strong leadership development opportunities, clear company mission, gig opportunities that support career development, strong employee support through the ombuds office and compliance help line, and stable company portfolio.

Cons

No work-life balance considerations with hybrid work model, contradictions in company mission compared to policies (i.e., target to reduce carbon emissions with employee commuting to office as one of the top 5 causes but yet still requiring employees to commute to office 3 days a week), some office sites are not conducive to in office productivity (not enough privacy or space), compensation package is not competitive for MA pharmaceutical companies, long-term incentives have almost no value once they are vested, health care benefits require employees to jump through hoops to maximize discounts or qualify for coverage of certain medications, and accountability for department leadership to follow the corporate leadership pillars is inconsistent across departments.
