Pros

Good Canteen and facilities in general

Cons

Horrible place to work Management is extremely lazy and unhelpful. Analyst are expected to do managements work. Company culture is extremely toxic and the company has a very Orwellian atmosphere. They put up a front of being keen on safety by being extremely strict on minor safety issues (e.g Using food tray in canteen), But anything that is serious quickly gets swept under the rug. Avoid this place at all costs. They don't values employees ( Contractors or in house staff). progression is slow as the focus is to get people testing with no interest in developing analysts knowledge or skills, Just simply follow the steps and dont get it wrong

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.
