Pros

None. Flaming pile of crap waiting to be bought out and parceled off.

Cons

Negative profits in the foreseeable future. Headcount cuts are the way the company manages poor quarterly results.

We recognize that each person has a different experience during their time at Elanco. While we’ve been on a multi-year transformation journey of standup and integration, we are now entering an exciting era of innovation and growth. Elanco’s first half 2023 performance delivered sequential improvement in the underlying revenue performance in our four business areas, and we are positioned to return to growth in the second half of 2023, thanks in part to the contribution from our new innovations beginning to launch. As a result, we raised our financial guidance for all key metrics to reflect our confidence in our underlying business . We also shared our increased investment in U.S. Pet Health to drive portfolio momentum and support launch preparations as we enter what we believe will be a historic window of innovation launches in the early part of 2024.

Passion for the industry to help pets is great and has momentum!

Cons

Gender diversity especially in finance leadership is very poor! And the diversity across all areas is very poor! Not a company I would recommend if you are in a protected class! CFO only has male direct reports!
