It was a quick tumble down from one of the best places to work, to a bureaucratic creativity killer. - Staff Scientist Sanofi Employee Review

Pros

Benefits are the only thing that remains as a plus. 401K match is superb, vacation time is generous and salary is on par. Health benefits are reasonable, but costs have significantly gone up. This, however is occurring everywhere.

Cons

Since the Sanofi took over the culture of Genzyme has disappeared. Genzyme used to be a place of great collaboration and creative thinking, alas that is all but gone. There are pockets left, but most of the best and brightest have found new homes. Sanofi destroyed this emerald of biotech. Data generated in research, poorly over seen and much of it may be over interpreted or wrong.

Pros

Nice people to work with, not too pushy from direct supervisor

Cons

Pay is not as high as other big pharma, work culture starting to become toxic. We are starting to get more and more micromanaged in terms of needing to log exact work hours in the work computer. That becomes difficult when you are lab facing and not always on your laptop
