Pros
Strong science and talented colleagues
Excellent benefits and career opportunities
Cutting-edge work in oncology, neuroscience, and advanced cell and gene therapies. Talented colleagues who genuinely care about patients and science. Opportunities to work on complex global clinical trials, collaborate with cross-functional teams, and develop leadership skills. Strong compensation, benefits, and flexibility in many groups.
Cons
Workloads can become unsustainable, with expectations that often exceed available resources. Frequent organizational changes and competing priorities can make it difficult to maintain work-life balance. Leadership experience may vary significantly by department, and clearer prioritization and resource planning would improve employee well-being.
