Pros

Salaries Facilities and grounds Benefits On the surface all appears good. Good fluffy perks like cafeteria, store, salon, dry cleaning.

Cons

So corporate. You are a number. The place is so big that you never really have a chance to shine. Corporate politics run rampant. The perks are nice but you can't help but think they are trying to just keep you there.

Industry is in a downturn. There are very few job growth opportunities on the horizon. The competencies of management are not always transparent.

Pros

Relatively few levels in the organization means access to senior leadership is pretty good. Core business is to develop and launch new prescription medicines so focus is very clear.

Cons

Conservative approach can demotivate employees rather than inspire. AZ culture does not encourage open and honest feedback so people rarely know where they stand.
