Pros

work and more work when you are done with the first task without guidance from your manager. it's just expected, if not happy, please leave

Cons

zero recognition or appreciation, from the management, politics, back-stabbing, people saying no first to everything & change. not caring about employees who commute & stay far away when the site is situated in the middle of nowhere (Paris-Saclay it is not!!! it's just a stupid branding JOKE) organising "fun" so called events after work and not giving a thought in a so called "caring" company (not bothering to organise a shuttle to Massy after) but still saying we're are the best!!!

Pros

Ipsen continues to offer a mission‑driven environment where teams are genuinely committed to improving outcomes for patients and society, and that sense of purpose shows up in the day‑to‑day culture. Collaboration across functions is strong, and there are meaningful opportunities to contribute to strategy, development, and cross‑functional problem‑solving. We have an amazing team filled with valuable talents.

Cons

The pace of change and evolving priorities can sometimes create ambiguity, and some processes still require tighter alignment to reduce friction and improve consistency. Development pathways and communication around long‑term strategy can feel uneven depending on the team. However, Ipsen remains a place where impact, collaboration, and purpose are real strengths, with room to continue strengthening operational clarity and consistency as the organization grows, which is an achievement.

Pros

Some nice colleagues. Good perks.

Cons

High leadership turnover and lack of transparency and direction. A few toxic individuals are running the show, promoting inexperienced employees at the expense of competent ones.
