Pros

Good vacation if you stay long enough, company shut down for Christmas. Good benefits.

Cons

Fire drill after fire drill. 3 leaders of diabetes division in 3 years. Reorg every year (no kidding)., usually around Christmas time. Sales management obsessed with metrics and dinners. Toxic environment for reps. Managers are free to set their own benchmarks regardless of what the company expects. In order to get a good rating you need to become a clone of your boss. Every time you get a new boss you have to start all over. Management very short term driven. If you have a bad week they persecute you. People don't know where company is headed. I do not know one rep who is happy working here. Last 3 years has been a storm of confusion, conflicting directives. Stay away

Pros

Extensive and active employee resource groups, strong leadership development opportunities, clear company mission, gig opportunities that support career development, strong employee support through the ombuds office and compliance help line, and stable company portfolio.

Cons

No work-life balance considerations with hybrid work model, contradictions in company mission compared to policies (i.e., target to reduce carbon emissions with employee commuting to office as one of the top 5 causes but yet still requiring employees to commute to office 3 days a week), some office sites are not conducive to in office productivity (not enough privacy or space), compensation package is not competitive for MA pharmaceutical companies, long-term incentives have almost no value once they are vested, health care benefits require employees to jump through hoops to maximize discounts or qualify for coverage of certain medications, and accountability for department leadership to follow the corporate leadership pillars is inconsistent across departments.
