HR is horrible. No transparency or diversity; no psychological safety; stuck in old ways of thinking and working. - Anonymous employee AstraZeneca Employee Review

Pros

- Passionate people who care about and think a lot about patients. - Smart people who are experienced in various verticals of healthcare.

Cons

– Moves slooooooow; no psychological safety. – HR really only sees people as a resource - ready to let go of people who they think won't be useful for them or may cause them more "unnecessary" work. – Lack of experience in handling international candidates. – Obviously new to WFH/Remote working, so they don't know how to build a culture around that at all.

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.
