Pros

By working there as a full time employee you will work on a beautiful campus and receive great benefits. Depending on your management it can be a great place to work.

Cons

Unfortunately, the focus is not on the value of the employee, but instead on managing risk. There is little opportunity for growth in your position unless you are favored by management, and there is little respect for long time employees input. There is no respect for hours worked, but instead on getting the overload of tasks done and making sure you are getting a graduate degree at the same time. Expect to work long hours with little or no thanks or benefits, as the management must adhere to a Jack Welsh philosophy of bad reviews for 10% of the employees regardless of work performance.

Pros

Excellent compensation, benefits, and career development opportunities. Strong investment in innovation, patient-focused mission, and world-class manufacturing capabilities. The New Albany site offers exposure to complex biologics operations, large-scale capital projects, and opportunities to work alongside talented and dedicated professionals committed to delivering medicines to patients.

Cons

The culture and leadership experience became increasingly inconsistent during the last year. Decision-making often lacked transparency, priorities shifted frequently, and employee feedback did not always appear to be valued. The people-centered culture that attracted many long-tenured employees seemed to drift, resulting in reduced trust, lower engagement, and increased organizational uncertainty.
