Vantaggi

Depending on your role, there can be more autonomy. It is a small company there are so many opportunities to do different things. Products are good. Some strong people in the US. Benefits are good.

Svantaggi

Tons of bureaucracy and "over"sight from France. We do not have the best talent on either side of pond. High turnover - either firings or the best talent moving on. Lots of dead wood, catty people who are not productive and do the bare minimum. Blame culture. Leadership and vision is lacking. No stock options.

Thank you for your review. I think the title of your post is very true; everybody should research a company before they join it. As you know there have been some big changes in senior management and the culture is changing too. I believe that the cons you list are firmly entrenched in the past and that they do not represent the direction that we are heading in. We agree that our people are the best contributors to our culture and IPSEN strengthens its culture one great hire at a time, and you are right: good leaders do attract and help retain the best talent, so we try our best to attract and develop great leaders. However I’m not sure what you mean when you speak of ‘the rank and file’, ‘warm bodies’ and ‘vicious people’; I’ve never heard a manager or a leader refer to anyone of their colleagues in those terms so I think we will struggle to help you ‘discern the difference’ here. How do you suggest we fix this? Going back to your title, if you researched the company today would get the same results that you would have found a year ago, two years? I doubt it. I believe that this serves as evidence that we are getting better and we are on the right track to being great. This is our journey and an adventure and you are welcome to take part in it.

Vantaggi

The recruiter that I worked with was wonderful and very in tuned with my career goals and the type of team I wanted to be a part of. He answered all of my questions in a timely manner and was transparent on which roles he felt would be a good match based on the leadership, team, and career aspirations.

Svantaggi

I did not have any cons related to my experience.

Vantaggi

None, I cannot think of one pro.

Svantaggi

The worst experience in my 15 plus career in pharma. The managers are horrible, they work you to death and show zero appreciation. I was so thankful I was a temp, as I would never have wanted to be a full time after what I experienced. It's basically a hot mess of bullying by managers and the Sr. Director's have poor SVPs they report into so it makes sense they management style is horrid.
