Pros

- Very nice offices in Reading - Good benefits including free EV charging on-site - Some talented colleagues - especially the "old timers"

Cons

- Toxic culture - colleagues smile at you and then give negative feedback to line managers behind your back. - Speaking up is encouraged by SLT but it will put a target on your back. - "My psychological safety" (a buzzword at Sanofi UK) is used as a weapon to complain. - Very high tolerance for under performers. Getting high scores on employee surveys is more important than performance. - HR's only objective is to support the SLT. Have no illusion they are there for you. - Recognition based on who's the leader's favorite, not merit

Pros

Nice people to work with, not too pushy from direct supervisor

Cons

Pay is not as high as other big pharma, work culture starting to become toxic. We are starting to get more and more micromanaged in terms of needing to log exact work hours in the work computer. That becomes difficult when you are lab facing and not always on your laptop
