Pros

The people are okay, but those that stay here are delusional.

Cons

-High level leadership is very involved, micromanaging decisions. The new commercial model is a nightmare. Not one team is clear of their roles and responsibilities. The layoffs, realignments, and chaos are extremely concerning. 2024-2028 is going to be extremely rough financially, logistically, and emotionally. They talk about all the “stuff” happening, but don’t realize that it is all a façade -Middle management is misguided, misinformed, and lost. There is no training, no process, and many lack basic professional experience to fulfill their responsibilities. There is no path for development after the recent changes, we all feel stuck. Everyone is a number including the massive amount of contract employees in all departments. No one is safe, it is an extremely volatile and toxic environment. No one is happy, everyone talks about it. -Day to day teams (those that are still here) are in the dark on everything. They are left to get the job done with little to no direction. The numerous changes to ways of working, vendors used, and the leadership overseeing the change have left teams spinning. Nothing gets done and no one has the power to fix anything. Everything is slow, behind, and filled with red tape and barriers. There is mass confusion in all departments. In general this is a poorly run company.

Pros

Interesting work that brings new medicines addressing unmet medical needs. Working with a group of highly skilled and knowledgeable people Allowing requests to be laid-off with generous severance enabling early retirement if so desired.

Cons

Loss of experienced people leading to loss of institutional knowledge and expertise at getting things done right the first time. Many new folks learning their jobs. Continuous budget cuts and layoffs - good news is established folks can request layoff and retire early WORST huge errosion in medical benefits. 2025-2026 32% increase in cost of single person high deductible insurance. Huge increase in allowable billable cost for the same cpt code services (eg. 2025 Dr visit $115 and same visit in 2026 $247). This change was hidden from employees until they went to the Dr and received their EOB bills. Company is managing loss of patents/revenue by hitting employee health care hard
