Pros

Good compensation and benefits, talented people to work with, convenient location to shopping and airport, good cafeteria food and cheap prices, low priced exercise gym on campus.

Cons

Management could provide more opportunity for input from staff to improve operations and be more open with strategy planning, creating better buyin and reaping good ideas from emplyees. Then cut the beurocracy and implement the ideas faster. Operations could be more efficient with less competion between geographical hubs.

Pros

I imagine this is very dependent on line management but I find my team and supervisors to be true champions of a high performing and highly compassionate work culture. I find my work challenging and rewarding, and have had opportunities to learn and grow and be rewarded and recognized for my output. No job is perfect but I’m truly happy to work here and at a time when AZ is truly rising like a rocket.

Cons

Like any massive global corporate entity, things can sometimes move slowly and it can be challenging to navigate a high number of constantly evolving priorities and initiatives. That being said, AZ is very clear about its north stars and values which makes it possible to prioritize work that has the most impact and alignment with the company’s ambition and business prerogatives. 60% office attendance policy is also a bit funny when oftentimes I am on Teams calls with colleagues sitting in other areas of the world.
