Pros

Salary, benefits, people in other departments were amazing. Can really just collect a paycheck without working hard. Looks good on resume for future job prospects.

Cons

Managers will adhere to a stealth layoff process during re-orgs if you are marked for termination or deemed not a culture fit (you speak up). My managers created an incredibly toxic environment for multiple people so they can leave and justify their role replacement. I was hired and never even given a fair chance to succeed the entire time. Incredibly discouraging and eye opening experience overall. Just really shady place without any real culture or psychological safety efforts or ability to grow in the role/company. The money was simply not worth it at all.

Pros

The page is friendly to make an application.

Cons

As an experienced healthcare analytics and commercial leader, I applied to 104 U.S.-based positions at AstraZeneca between 2025 and 2026 that closely matched my background. Despite receiving interviews from peer organizations, I did not receive a single recruiter interaction. I fully understand the competitiveness of hiring, but such a complete lack of engagement raises questions about potential overreliance on AI screening or unintended bias.
