Pros

Solid company and benefits. Good moral compass and eye for social/societal issues. Good picture science. On a granular mid-management level, there are challenges.

Cons

After a while, growth prospects get thin and you are forced to carve/force a path for growth - due to the sensitivities of others. Some departmental functions do not allow enough opportunities for Scientific growth, specifically in leadership spaces for younger emerging Scientists.

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.
