Pros

Competitive Salary Good HealthCare Plan

Cons

During my time in Ipsen I have encountered many downside things such as: Certain People talk to you in a rude manner and nothing is done about it, not even if you complain to your Management. The training is non existent, you are left on your own to figure it out. All of it (might be different in other departments) You're lured into thinking that you can take back your worked up hours on Friday, but.. On Friday your schedule is busy and you work overtime again. Leaving work on time is rare. Taking holidays is difficult, even if you book it well in advance you'll have to live with the anticipation of it not being approved at all. Trying to fix things and have ideas don't work. You can try and talk to the Management but Ideas are never fullfilled because no one has time to work on them. The SOPs are just guidelines, most of the lack crucial information. The Morale is down but Everyone is afraid to show it.

Pros

The recruiter that I worked with was wonderful and very in tuned with my career goals and the type of team I wanted to be a part of. He answered all of my questions in a timely manner and was transparent on which roles he felt would be a good match based on the leadership, team, and career aspirations.

Cons

I did not have any cons related to my experience.

Pros

None, I cannot think of one pro.

Cons

The worst experience in my 15 plus career in pharma. The managers are horrible, they work you to death and show zero appreciation. I was so thankful I was a temp, as I would never have wanted to be a full time after what I experienced. It's basically a hot mess of bullying by managers and the Sr. Director's have poor SVPs they report into so it makes sense they management style is horrid.
