Pros

Great benefits and decent pay

Cons

Company grew USSMM too quickly and started hiring poor quality CRAs. There are a lot of politics and managers playing favorites, you arent promoted unless you have a manager who lets you get the LT visibility needed. They promote the young visible brown nosers before the hard working CRAs with more field experience.

Pros

The page is friendly to make an application.

Cons

As an experienced healthcare analytics and commercial leader, I applied to 104 U.S.-based positions at AstraZeneca between 2025 and 2026 that closely matched my background. Despite receiving interviews from peer organizations, I did not receive a single recruiter interaction. I fully understand the competitiveness of hiring, but such a complete lack of engagement raises questions about potential overreliance on AI screening or unintended bias.
