Pros

Open communication is welcome. I had many opportunities to showcase my abilities and skills to senior level management. Work-life balance is a high priority and AZ will accommodate your needs so that you and your family are happy. The company offers career advancement that I believe is more fair and just than other pharmaceutical companies.

Cons

I have seen people dismissed for actions that could have been resolved with improvement plans. They are quick to fire good employees.

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.
