Pros

Ample parking. Great science. A place to pick up skills that could serve you better elsewhere.

Cons

Absolutely stifling bureaucracy. Reorg after reorg. Patronizing and arrogant leadership without trust in the organizations they manage. A lack of clear leadership vision. Next to no US R&D autonomy makes everything absurdly slow, France calls the shots. Politics galore. Silo city. Laughable 1% salary increases for all year after year. Disillusioned and highly frustrated employees, many of whom are now looking for an exit. Very, very sad to see this happen to what was once a great place to work.

Pros

The company has an excellent, very collegial atmosphere. Employees are supported well and there is excellent support for most processes from numerous line functions.

Cons

Some processes as well as the governance structure can be a bit confusing. More so than other large pharma companies. But even with this. There are almost always enough people who know how to get things done.
