Pros

Wonderful work-life-balance. Great career opportunities with many possibilities to develop yourself outside of day to day activities.

Cons

Return to office after pandemic was nonsensical and badly implemented. Also no influence on salary discussions in Sweden, you take what the unions discuss and have to be happy with it (always less than inflation). With inflation being so high I do the same work but get payed less and less every year.

Pros

- Incredibly talented researchers and scientists passionate about developing new medicines for the patients - Clever and fun coworkers - Interesting projects

Cons

- Dishonest leadership that cuts employees bonuses without a warning based on the office attendance - Lack of accountability for poor decisions impacting employees. Decisions are made based on favoritism - Lower level employees doing work get no credit. The environment is not collaborative which creates a lot of duplication of work and inefficiencies - The benefits vary tremendously depending on the country you're based in (parental leave, vacation days, etc.) - Lack of life/work balance, the compensation does not match the workload

Pros

decent pay, good mission, opportunities to positively effect change in patients lives

Cons

Recently demonstrating little to no loyalty to employees and seem to care more about being on site 3 days a week that productivity or any other measurable innovative outcome. Now seem to care more about obedience than anything else. Current autocratic leanings will feel stifling to innovative productive people who dislike rules for rules sake or who create disruption with innovation.
