Business Outlook

Pros

Enough funding to attend scientific conferences, clear direction for objectives.

Cons

Objectives change every 6 months requiring projects to be abandoned - and leaving outside collaborators scratching their heads. People are put in charge of departments where they have no experience. Global staff specifically exclude US staff from making decisions - even those with FDA or other US entities.

Business Outlook

Pros

Superior benefits:150% match on 6% contributions to 401K, very generous vacation package, environmentally conscious, new clean lab space, salaries aligned with other big pharma, on site Occupational Health building, good bonuses. The people who work there are top notch and the main reason I have stayed there 15 years.

Cons

The tendrils of the big pharma bureaucracy by Sanofi has undermined the culture of Genzyme, salary increases are meager (<2%), reduction in work force without replacements. A recent confusing layoff let go several very talented and people with purported influx of contracted staff as future replacements. The future of R&D has not been communicated leaving the staff feeling vulnerable.
