Pros

* Fellow employees are great * 401k is decent * PTO is generous * Encouraged community engagement

Cons

* Most departments are highly insular, collaboration for lower level employees is not looked at well. * Management should be called “manglement”; they are inept, incapable of making long term strategies that pull their departments, and therefore the site out of firefighting mode. * As with many corporations, the higher ups have favorites, and you know if you are not on the list. * Promotions are rarely proven skill set and leadership movements, but problematic, unqualified people being moved into different positions because discontent has grown too loud. * Training is sub par, and a root cause of many of the constant issues. * Pay is low for the industry. * Retaliation up to, and including termination happens, despite heavy company lip service to the contrary. * Punitive sick leave policy: have a total of 5 sick days in a calendar year? The door is open to be fired.

Pros

At Elanco IAC, the learning opportunities are incredible. From day one, I was impressed by the incredible learning opportunities the company provided. Words cannot express how impressed I am with the management team at Elanco IAC. Leadership is highly competent, responsive, and supportive. As a leader in the animal healthcare industry, the company genuinely cares about the well-being of animals and their owners. It's an honor to be part of an organization that is committed to the health and happiness of animals. I highly recommend Elanco Animal Health Company to anyone seeking a rewarding career in the animal health industry.

Cons

More opportunities for cross-functional collaboration and knowledge sharing would enhance innovation and teamwork.
