Pros

Sanofi is a leader in the pharmaceutical industry. The benefits package was great. I really enjoyed working with my direct leadership. In the beginning, there was lots of opportunity for growth.

Cons

It seemed a little disorganized, they couldn't stick to one process, everything seemed to change every year. Too many layoffs in the past 5 years, therefore, the morale at the company was slipping because every November everyone was waiting for the next round of layoffs.

Business Outlook

Pros

the benefits are great and competitive

Cons

The pharmaceutical industry is down right now. Sanofi is suffering also, especially with its pipeline of products. I am not sure they have the new blockbusters coming down the road over the next few years to keep the company going as it did in the boom 1990's.
