Pros

Great benefits and vacation time. CEO appears to have the right mindset. They promote work life balance, generous vacation time but can never take it because of workload, timeline and expectations. Vacation cannot be rolled over each year, therefore I loose vacation every year to continue to be a high performer.

Cons

The worst culture imaginable, which is sad and ironic because the Genzyme (acquired by Sanofi was the opposite). At Sanofi you are not a person you are a number. The expectation is unrealistic making a work life balance impossible. Very low salaries for those that are long standing employees. There is no value of the employee or contribution. Constant layoffs, I have seen employees/projects be recognized with the highest level of internal and external recognitions and awards then be laid off the month later. Layoffs are done in rash uneducated manors-with no understanding of their actions. Sanofi is a company built on investors not a mission for improving patients lives. European focus with negative treatment and acceptance of non-EU.

Pros

Decent wage and benefits that keep you hangin' on....

Cons

Bad leadership and poor implementation of plans. Always reacting and coming up with the next corporate slogan/propaganda bit and it's associated rhetoric. Like much of the corporate world these days, it's all about keeping up appearances and focusing on non-issues. Those in the manufacturing facilities often wonder if they are working for the same company that is touted so highly by those that are lucky enough to have an office/lab gig....just looking at the positive opinions on this site evokes this sentiment. Example....some elitists complaining that they can't hide from rona at home anymore....lol...yeah...you poor thing. Gotta actually go to work every now and then...oh the horrors.
