Pros

AstraZeneca for a long time had a great line of products, although their pipeline is a little thin now. Their benefits package is very decent compared to the industry.

Cons

Although their benefits are good the pay scale lags the rest of the industry. Management turns over very frequently and with that the priorities seem to change as often. 12 years - 5 district managers, 10 regional managers.

Pros

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.

Cons

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.
