Pros

Great time off, great 401 k match, decent health insurance, goood manuracturing training program.

Cons

Terrible management, constant indecision, too much in the way of politics, good old boy network is in place with a friends of upper management filling all the middle management positions. People are very aggressive and a lot of the time for no good reason. If you are an easy going person, this is not the place for you. Management will constantly re-examine their decisions, and you will be asked to drop everything to take care of the newest top priority to the point where it will become a running joke. Management cares more about protecting their personal interests as opposed to doing what is best for the company.

Pros

Excellent compensation, benefits, and career development opportunities. Strong investment in innovation, patient-focused mission, and world-class manufacturing capabilities. The New Albany site offers exposure to complex biologics operations, large-scale capital projects, and opportunities to work alongside talented and dedicated professionals committed to delivering medicines to patients.

Cons

The culture and leadership experience became increasingly inconsistent during the last year. Decision-making often lacked transparency, priorities shifted frequently, and employee feedback did not always appear to be valued. The people-centered culture that attracted many long-tenured employees seemed to drift, resulting in reduced trust, lower engagement, and increased organizational uncertainty.
