      Ipsen trains so others can retain. Great stepping stone for bigger companies!

      Pros

      Ipsen is a great place to join for a ~2-3 year stint, come in for a bigger role than what you currently have with expanded responsibilities, get good experience in a variety of therapeutic areas, and go somewhere where they will pay you the market value for what you do. By joining Ipsen, you're basically buying the experience that is usually more difficult to get in bigger companies because of all the bureaucracy, and you can use that to leverage into a better role outside of Ipsen.

      Cons

      If you are not french you will not grow. Unfortunately, it's the french way or the highway. If you don't speak french you will most likely never make it past a regional leadership role (at best). Also, Ipsen pays below market value across the board which is a big factor in why their average tenure is so low and people turnaround is so high even within such a fast-paced industry. DO NOT fall for the "come in as a contractor and we will make you a full-time employee soon" scam they really drag the process and create a hostile environment for team members while they're in the contractor stage.
