      Pros

      Great pipeline, opportunities for stretch assignments, competitive salaries and great benefits

      Growing company means you’re building the plane while flying it, lack of SOP’s, limited potential for upward mobility until more products launch

      Unwelcoming Environment

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Decent benefits (not best but on par with industry). - US: 15 days vacation, 6 PTO, 5 sick days, plus small winter shutdown. 6 percent 401k match. - Leadership in our group is pretty good. - Great products that help people. - Ability to flex and work from home.

      Cons

      - Daiichi Sankyo will overwork its staff across all regions, burnout is high. - Some longer tenured employees will talk down to and essentially insult newer and lower level employees. - If you’re new, get ready to learn the Daiichi Sankyo way of working, because there is no alternative. - Any outside expertise is completely disregarded because the longer tenured people don’t want to change. - Heavy reliance on labor vs systems and processes. - Haphazard way of handling documentation and data. - Due to a lack of tools, micromanagement is the primary way of managing.
