      Pros

      Ipsen is a great place to join for a ~2-3 year stint, come in for a bigger role than what you currently have with expanded responsibilities, get good experience in a variety of therapeutic areas, and go somewhere where they will pay you the market value for what you do. By joining Ipsen, you're basically buying the experience that is usually more difficult to get in bigger companies because of all the bureaucracy, and you can use that to leverage into a better role outside of Ipsen.

      Cons

      If you are not french you will not grow. Unfortunately, it's the french way or the highway. If you don't speak french you will most likely never make it past a regional leadership role (at best). Also, Ipsen pays below market value across the board which is a big factor in why their average tenure is so low and people turnaround is so high even within such a fast-paced industry. DO NOT fall for the "come in as a contractor and we will make you a full-time employee soon" scam they really drag the process and create a hostile environment for team members while they're in the contractor stage.

      Pros

      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.

      Cons

      I did not have any cons related to my experience.

      Pros

      None, I cannot think of one pro.

      Cons

      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.
