Pretty Decent But Awkward

Pros

Straightforward mission: food protein and pet health Week-long paid company-wide shutdowns mid-year and between Christmas and New Year's, on top of normal vacation.

Cons

There's an evangelical Christian cabal at the top, so ambitious secular women should look elsewhere. Because the company was this relatively small division of the much larger Lilly for so long, I think it was able to create this homogenous and weird white-bred, christian culture, where there simply wasn't a lot of influx of non-Indiana, non-Christian blood. Now that it's a public company, it's subject to greater scrutiny and it's scrambling to implement D&I, which basically means promoting women, since that's easier than finding people of color willing to work in a sea of white foam. I think the eventual move to Indianapolis may help, but for now it's a pretty awkward phase, while still a decent company if you have the patience of Job.

Pros

Everyone at Elanco are very helpful and pleasant. They go the extra mile to make one feel welcome and important. Travel arrangements are easy and accommodations are very nice. Everyone answered any and all questions. The offer for employment came in a timely fashion with adequate phone confirmation following email contact. Several people contacted me to make sure all of my questions were answered. This is a great company with wonderful people.

Cons

I have not found anything to complain about thus far.
