Pros

Location, facilities and potential connections in the Biotech world. For those in Sr. Management, the perks are endless with travel and possible chance to fly in the company jet.

Cons

It is not run like a business nor are the decisions based on financial principles. No ROI is applied nor are previous decisions brought under review for whether the goals or objectives were met. The career path is limited for those who support the business. Even research personnel and those involved in the product have limited upward mobility unless you find a mentor or advocate. The move to outsource will be one that bites them in the end.

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.
