Pros

Company takes care of their employees. Most colleagues are friendly. Have products making money and promising products in pipeline.

Cons

Company (at least in US) is very confused about their identity. Are they a nimble biotech like they claim or are they big pharma? Based on all the BMS expats and their philosophy for building the organization, I would say they are more similar to a big pharma company than an agile, nimble biotech. Company is extremely top heavy with most hires being at the Associate Director to Senior Director levels.. no one under them to actually do work. Instead, the work is outsourced to contractors and consultants who more times than not, are provided inaccurate requirements and therefore, deliver subpar deliverables.

Pros

Great salary and benefits. Great one day work-free once a month. Great company to work if you have a good manager.

Cons

Manager spoke in condescending manner to fellow drug safety physicians and scientists and sometimes ridiculed colleagues during safety meetings boasting "I can't teach you guys medicine". One Safety Physician left in anger immediately after an inexperienced manager who unfortunately was well liked by senior management insulted her in a meeting despite being cautioned to stop and yet continued. She demonized everyone working under her without justification. The department is now breathing a sigh of relief after the manager's exit and with an new manager who is humane and treats her direct reports with respect.
