Pros

Nice research environment, the scientists are interested in their research. Opportunities to explore various research areas and technologies.

Cons

Those below director level are promoted much less. This is especially true since Sanofi takeover. The scientists should be given more training in bioinformatics, rather than just working with the bioinformatics teams. A bit lagging behind other companies in computational biology.

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
