Good compensation but good leadership and direction are lacking - Anonymous employee Amgen Employee Review

Rewards the most toxic employees with promotion, management micromanages too much (which gives impression that they are trying to stay relevant), makes sweeping decisions without thinking through impacts, and long-term goals are sadly short sighted. Too many layoffs of important roles that actually do the work without feasible or even sensible backup plans - too much faith in AI and they eliminated important roles before proving that AI even works.
