Pros

Awesome campus facilities, great pay and benefits, adequate work life balance. The 401k match is great, as are some of the long term incentives. Time off starts at 5 weeks (3 week vacation plus one summer and one winter shutdown)

Cons

Long product development cycle leads to occasional lay offs, recent focus on cost cutting by sending jobs outside of California with additional rounds of layoffs.

Pros

Excellent compensation, benefits, and career development opportunities. Strong investment in innovation, patient-focused mission, and world-class manufacturing capabilities. The New Albany site offers exposure to complex biologics operations, large-scale capital projects, and opportunities to work alongside talented and dedicated professionals committed to delivering medicines to patients.

Cons

The culture and leadership experience became increasingly inconsistent during the last year. Decision-making often lacked transparency, priorities shifted frequently, and employee feedback did not always appear to be valued. The people-centered culture that attracted many long-tenured employees seemed to drift, resulting in reduced trust, lower engagement, and increased organizational uncertainty.
