Pros

Great salary, awesome benefits, flexible working arrangements, vacation, 401k match at six percent, generous bonus and stock options for certain level employees, great work/life balance most of the time.

Cons

Constantly changing, and not in a good way. Never knew where you stood or when your run was over... sadly keeping under performers employed and not promoting talent. Total lack of clear leadership.

Pros

I imagine this is very dependent on line management but I find my team and supervisors to be true champions of a high performing and highly compassionate work culture. I find my work challenging and rewarding, and have had opportunities to learn and grow and be rewarded and recognized for my output. No job is perfect but I’m truly happy to work here and at a time when AZ is truly rising like a rocket.

Cons

Like any massive global corporate entity, things can sometimes move slowly and it can be challenging to navigate a high number of constantly evolving priorities and initiatives. That being said, AZ is very clear about its north stars and values which makes it possible to prioritize work that has the most impact and alignment with the company’s ambition and business prerogatives. 60% office attendance policy is also a bit funny when oftentimes I am on Teams calls with colleagues sitting in other areas of the world.
