Pros

Following the recent layoffs in 2025 at Diabetes, there isn't much to recommend this place. I am looking for a new job, despite currently having one.

Cons

This place does not invest in employees. Managers often hire friends or prioritize hiring individuals with visas, allowing them to be overworked and underpaid. The last layoff resulted in the dismissal of many long-term employees, so a significant amount of work that no one knows how to do has been redistributed. The ratings this year were calibrated with input from directors and SVPs, not from managers. The only ratings that were four or above were those of friends of the directors or people they were concerned would leave after the recent round of layoffs. The nepotism in this place is absurd.

Pros

There are many non-traditional benefits that help with work life balance. The company’s brand and global reach are undeniable and reinforce the company’s compelling Mission.

Cons

People are expected to deliver above-average results with below-average processes. The stock’s performance has earned this pressure, but there is no obvious, quick path to improvement. Your experience in that corporate environment will depend on your supervisor either being a leader or a manager.
