Pros

I worked at Janssen for approximately 6 months and had a wonderful experience. As a university student, I was treated as a full-time member of the team with great respect and was given a lot of responsibility on a variety of projects where I gained great exposure to my particular field. My manager and co-workers gave me feedback when necessary and took interest in my professional development. There is an open and friendly culture as people outside of my department would make conversation with me and give me career advice. If you put time on upper management's calendar, they will make time to meet with you - people oriented while still maintaining the balance with business priorities.

Cons

No negative feedback on the company

Pros

Janssen offers decent salary and benefits, makes an effort to provide ethical behavior in their drug development.

Cons

Fails to reward existing employees. Many employees leave elsewhere because they don't feel valued and it ends up costing a lot of money and resources to replace them, disrupts and delays the work flow and puts burden on other employees.

Pros

Early finish Friday, Bonus scheme, nice things for all when products are launched.

Cons

No matter how hard you work when promotion is on offer there is always someones name on it and often you are excluded from applying, or going through the assessment centre. Woman out number men a recipe for disaster. A lot of conflict goes on within depts. Not what you know but who you know. The 30 something brigade is what they are focusing on and experienced people are being made redundant.
