Pros

Great benefits. Best I've ever had in the IT industry.

Cons

Jobs are stagnant positions. To move up, you MUST move laterally. Many of current leaders were staff in earlier days. Ideas from "outside" employees are not well received. Administrative politics often outweigh sound industry best practices. With the new IBM / EDS outsourcing, many jobs are being eliminated.

Pros

Excellent compensation, benefits, and career development opportunities. Strong investment in innovation, patient-focused mission, and world-class manufacturing capabilities. The New Albany site offers exposure to complex biologics operations, large-scale capital projects, and opportunities to work alongside talented and dedicated professionals committed to delivering medicines to patients.

Cons

The culture and leadership experience became increasingly inconsistent during the last year. Decision-making often lacked transparency, priorities shifted frequently, and employee feedback did not always appear to be valued. The people-centered culture that attracted many long-tenured employees seemed to drift, resulting in reduced trust, lower engagement, and increased organizational uncertainty.
