      Good place for college grats, but it become hell for 50+ older employees

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Amgen used to be a great company to work for, It's still good for young college grats.

      Cons

      recent years the Amgen culture is turning very negative. Many great benefits are now gone. Amgen is notoriously discriminate against older employees that are older than 50+. They are quietly try to give them very difficult time and don't matter how good they are doing their jobs. Amgen allowed supervisors to nitpicking and find ways make lives difficult for these old employees and give them very bad reviews. They are always on the look for ways to weed or forcing out older employees. I am not surprise to see a class action lawsuit against Amgen HR practice in the future. As a former employees for over 30 years I have seen it all.
