Sanofi: Scientifically incurious, obsessively cost driven

Senior scientist

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Excellent medical benefits and leave policies, well-defined operational policies

Cons

Too much focus on operational issues and short-term cost savings. Sanofi's scientific management is overwhelmingly obsessed with bottom-line thinking and operational issues. Experienced employees with PhD degrees and record of scientific innovation are relegated to staring at spreadsheets and managing projects seemingly only focused on the near-term bottom line. When this happens, there is no risk taking and consequently, the company's pipeline is lackluster and has to be enhanced through acquisition.

Decent Company - but not much employee Growth

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The company is stable and opportunities to move around exist. People are generally quite nice and the working environment is pleasant

Cons

But there are limits to management positions where many roles (mid-management) are occupied by young French people who are parachuted in to take over from the locals.
