Pros

They are working at improving the culture and moving away from the old ways. You start with 3 weeks vacation and if you have the right manager, your hours are flexible and you can still maintain a home life. Benefits package is great.

Cons

There is a lot of bureaucracy and moving up/around throughout the company is much harder than you would think with it being so large. There is no formal mentor program or growth plan.

Pros

Great pay and benefits. Very profitable, competitive and really trying to evolve into a more modern, bio-pharmaceutical company. There are new programs rolling out that are more health-focused, helping employees learning to cope with stress and encouraging more work-life balance. New drugs being offered are outstanding and show how great this company can be,

Cons

The culture needs a lot of work - there are many employees that migrated from Abbott and the hierarchical, political, old-school mindset needs a serious reboot. Pockets of the organization are still very silo'ed - like IT. There is no CIO / CTO and the organization suffers a great deal because IT is so disconnected from the business it supports and the Help Desk is not customer-service oriented. Older drugs like Synthroid either need to be reformulated or abandoned.
