Pros

The benefits are good. There are some great people working here.

Cons

The work load will burn you out quickly. Changes happen quickly, and with no warning, and it appears with no forethought from Sr management. And this company rewards bullies. I've seen people taking credit for other's work and men speak over women, then take credit for their ideas. That behavior is accepted and rewarded.

Pros

Meaningful, mission-driven work with the opportunity to contribute to projects that can have a real impact on patients. Colleagues are highly knowledgeable, supportive, and generally willing to provide mentorship. Gilead also offers strong resources, exposure to different functions within the pharmaceutical industry, and opportunities to work on high-visibility projects.

Cons

Cons: As with many large companies, decision-making and project approvals can sometimes move slowly because of multiple layers of review. The experience may also vary depending on the specific team and manager, and the number of meetings and internal processes can occasionally feel cumbersome.
