Pros

Benefits, established Biotech company with leading edge research and development organization. Strong culture in the past for ensuring Quality.

Cons

Impact of layoffs means company is losing some of its historical knowledge-base and significant impact to moral throughout the organization.Almost total focus on the bottom line and return to shareholders, no longer on patient-first and do the right thing. Very risk-adverse.

Pros

Because of the pandemic, Amgen did improve on empowering their employees to prioritize their wellbeing. Campus is beautiful and nice benefits.

Cons

Very demanding, which in my opinion may illicit a competitive nature amongst staff, which I didn't care for. Pretty difficult to move up compared to other organizations I've worked at. Diversity and inclusion is a bit lacking - in 2020, there was a lot more access to DEI material but it didn't last.
