Pros
The pay scale is reasonable for jobs I’ve seen posted.
Cons
The Raleigh team are some of the most unprofessional individuals I encountered within my job search. I had multiple offers for positions from multiple places, but was hoping to work at Gilead due to location and the specific job description and function. I went through about five or six rounds of interviews over an 2 month span of time and all went beautifully well. I then received a call before their week long July shut down and I had been chosen, went through details and was told I would receive my formal offer after their return to the office. A week after their return I followed up and was told it would be another week. The emailing and communication chase went on for a couple of weeks. Most times with me having to reach out multiple times before receiving a response to finally be told that the department I was being hired into was seeing a few changes and they could not fill the position at the time. Then was told there was a possibility the position could available within the next 30-90 days and they would proceed with an offer as I was the candidate they all wanted for the position. I also had a 2 offers from other organizations at the time and struggled with a decision to wait on Gilead’s lies. Thank god I didn’t tell my employer at the time I was offered a position. And thankfully I decided their unprofessional communication wasn’t worth turning down one of the other offers so I’m in my dream job in an organization that has great reviews and happy employees. My advice to their talent and hiring staff is - do not communication BS to candidates until things are ironed out and you actually are ready to hire. It was completely unprofessional to reach out to say I had gotten the job with a formal offer to follow in which in fact they hadn’t even had the position budgeted or approved for hire. So - candidates beware. And read employee reviews on working in the Raleigh office. You may just save yourself the annoyance and bad experience. I’ve heard terrible experiences from individuals I’ve met that have previously worked for the company.
