Pros

Very good company for starters, Product based company, Worldwide known company Product-based company (Once upon a time)

Cons

Product-based company (Once upon a time) and now it has become Politics based company. If your Line Manager doesn't like you personally and/or professionally, then you will be fired from the company slowly, by hiding your delivered projects and will assign either very old legacy applications or the applications that are not working fine, just to make you out for that year. Still, AZ uses 19th-century technologies in its applications and not ready to adapt to new emerging technologies. While recruiting you will be tested and asked questions from the very latest technologies but after getting into the company you will be asked to work or deliver the very old technologies and they never bother to migrate it to new technology. So, Managers can start playing games using this legacy applications to corner their employees for which Higher officials and HR will support it. If any persons wrongly configures the application then punish the person as per AZ Ethics and don't keep the blame on the other employee who have not worked on that application

Pros

The page is friendly to make an application.

Cons

As an experienced healthcare analytics and commercial leader, I applied to 104 U.S.-based positions at AstraZeneca between 2025 and 2026 that closely matched my background. Despite receiving interviews from peer organizations, I did not receive a single recruiter interaction. I fully understand the competitiveness of hiring, but such a complete lack of engagement raises questions about potential overreliance on AI screening or unintended bias.
