Pros

Good Benefits. Like all companies, there are good companies with bad leaders but that doesn't make the company bad. I'm sure there are really good areas in genzyme to work.

Cons

This seems like the division that gets forgotten. Not much emphisis on this division. Even though it's been around the longest. Management doesn't seem to value star employees. They just seem to pile more work on them instead of helping their career path and training new employees.

Pros

Extensive and active employee resource groups, strong leadership development opportunities, clear company mission, gig opportunities that support career development, strong employee support through the ombuds office and compliance help line, and stable company portfolio.

Cons

No work-life balance considerations with hybrid work model, contradictions in company mission compared to policies (i.e., target to reduce carbon emissions with employee commuting to office as one of the top 5 causes but yet still requiring employees to commute to office 3 days a week), some office sites are not conducive to in office productivity (not enough privacy or space), compensation package is not competitive for MA pharmaceutical companies, long-term incentives have almost no value once they are vested, health care benefits require employees to jump through hoops to maximize discounts or qualify for coverage of certain medications, and accountability for department leadership to follow the corporate leadership pillars is inconsistent across departments.
