Pros

I've been here since college and consistently had great bosses, awesome benefits, and decent work-life balance. I believe in the pipeline long-term, the leadership has always been solid, strong financials, and the Credo values are evident in many of the decisions being made. People usually join and stay for a while. There has been great improvement in the DE&I areas (strong ERG support, lots of diverse leadership).

Cons

Getting raises is like pulling teeth. Bonus compensation can be impacted by your sector's overall performance (Pharma usually getting the best bonuses). Culture is extremely political so performance ratings many times seem unfair. Really difficult to rotate into the Pharma sector if you don't have prior experience. Long Term Incentive (stocks/RSUs) structure isn't great - if you're lucky enough to get them below the director level, 0% vest until year 4. Pension was fantastic when I joined but they've adjusted it significantly downward and there is the risk of further adjustments.
