Pros

Decent benefits, remote work focused

Cons

Extremely toxic management who only care about themselves. Promotions are based off of who you suck up to, not how good of a job you do. The chances of being laid off are extremely high because management doesn’t know how to adequately plan for the future. No focus on employee growth or talent or retention. They do not care about their employees. You are just a number in this company unless you are an SVP or higher. HR will not help you, they will always side with upper management.

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.
