Pros
Lilly benefits and pay Highly varied work content Excellent vacation and paid sick time with very flexible working schedule
Cons
Prior to the acquisition of Novartis, which was treated like a merger, Elanco had a culture where it didn't matter if you were fresh out of college or had worked with Lilly/Elanco 30yrs and were a Sr. Director, everyone worked side by side and picked up the slack where necessary. You had a significant number of people who had great pride and ownership of their company and their work. After the merger, "command and control" Novartis style management took over and people were forced to play their lane to the extent that you could take a performance rating hit for what used to be the core ideals of the workforce.
