Pros

Location, food, snacks and coffee.

Cons

The company has absolutely no structure. Poor management, lack of leadership and direction, constant change in work strategy. CEO doesn't know what's happening, and top managers don’t know how to manage. Don't expect to do something meaningful. Your work will most likely never get to be used by a single user, or it will be simply thrown to the garbage. You'll be seeing/hearing the same product being marketed all over; the one that was made in 1 month, 3 years ago. The company could benefit from many changes but they are not willing to listen (and they are getting rid of people who want to change things). Don't challenge and don't try to be brighter than anyone else; this will most probably get you fired. It was probably the worst company I've ever worked for, and it is a big relief not to be working in such a toxic and frustrating environment anymore. Terrible place, don’t do it to yourself. Find somewhere else to work... anywhere else.

Pros

LEO Innovation Lab is an great place to work. There are plenty of opportunity to grow and be part of driving meaningful projects for patients and doctors. The corporate startup environment encourages employees to drive the projects at it was their own startups and expects the managers to be the experts in their field therefore lots of autonomy. This combined with an incredible support system of compliance, legal, medical and a global BD team, gives the projects a high likelihood of success. There is a very open culture and everyone is eager to talk across projects and learn from each other. Water cooler talk (or coffee) can lead to super inspiring talks. Nothing is spared on the social events, and there is even a chef preparing lunch every day.

Cons

Building a corporate innovation lab is a difficult task, and there has been many changes on the way, where transparency on decisions is key for people’s engagement and ownership. LEO Pharma as an owner has plenty of knowledge to benefit from, which could be exploited further.
