      Bad leaders are ruining the company

      Pros

      On site Starbucks, decent pay

      Cons

      After allowing people to WFH for the pandemic there is a big forceful push to bring people back in the office. However, there are not enough desks and the place is filthy. No one has presented a good reason for coming in the office other than to micromanage the already stressed out employees. Work/Life balance is slowly being phased out. Career growth is a joke and subjective. If you are great at being a brown-nose, you'll go far. Don't challenge authority even when they are wrong. They don't like it and you'll never get promoted. Be careful of all the carrots that are dangled to make you stay. As soon you spot the first lie - leave!

      Strong company values, great people, but certainly room for some improvements

      Pros

      The PO&T organization (e.g. manufacturing, supply chain) is a strong group that has good leadership that is committed to the employee by way of personal and professional growth as well as a team that supports innovation. It is clear that this group is committed to the patient and it is inspiring and motivational.

      Cons

      The R&D organization has great people, but the leadership in the Global Clinical Operations team is very red tape-heavy, political, and way too conservative. Also, HR has increasingly become less of a partner in going lean over the past two years.
