Vantaggi

The cafe in the main building is very nice and has a wide variety. Electrical outlets to charge electric cars are in the garages.

Svantaggi

The political nonsense is more than enough to drive someone into a deep depression. I have worked in the industry for quite sometime. I have to say, AstraZeneca was by far the worst place I have ever been employed at. There was a new hire orientation every single Monday for full time people and new contractors. Meaning their turn over rate is just awful. I know several women who worked their for 6+ years, that were let go. Yet they are still hiring. They also promise all of their contractor that once they are full time their pay will increase, but it doesn’t. Instead, they will keep that person a contractor for as long as they can, then cut their contract. I have seen it happen with every single contract person I knew. Higher ups are extremely hypocritical due to the fact that they spout these values saying that they care about diversity and inclusion. All the while locally they tried and tried denying any group that has to do with the LGBTQ+ community. There is also a major racial and sexist issues. When a complaint of racism or sexism would be reported, higher ups would look the other way. Even if HR got involved, they know these people so instead of taking a reasonable action against numerous complaints, instead, they force the victim out of the company. Not the perpetrator! They would put the victim on PIP for no reason, they would pull work from other teams only to increasing the vics workload. If they email for time off months in advance higher ups will flat out deny it. I also attempted to move to several better positions. I went through all of the processes and even got verbal offer letters. However when the time came for the actual offer letters, I never heard anything. I never even got rejection emails. Instead, I would just meet the person they put into the position. Those people are truly monsters and they still work there to this day. Please please please whatever you do, if you are thinking about working here, think twice. If you are through the hiring process, get hired and find something else. Keep your head down and do not fully engage with anyone. The moment that you do, they will find something about you that they do not like and your job will be on the line. I sincerely kid you not.

Vantaggi

I imagine this is very dependent on line management but I find my team and supervisors to be true champions of a high performing and highly compassionate work culture. I find my work challenging and rewarding, and have had opportunities to learn and grow and be rewarded and recognized for my output. No job is perfect but I’m truly happy to work here and at a time when AZ is truly rising like a rocket.

Svantaggi

Like any massive global corporate entity, things can sometimes move slowly and it can be challenging to navigate a high number of constantly evolving priorities and initiatives. That being said, AZ is very clear about its north stars and values which makes it possible to prioritize work that has the most impact and alignment with the company’s ambition and business prerogatives. 60% office attendance policy is also a bit funny when oftentimes I am on Teams calls with colleagues sitting in other areas of the world.
