Pros

Good products and legacy. Dynamic with high sales growth. Still human despite internalization / "americanization". Good evolution possible if you drive it by yourself. Globally Ipsen takes care of their employees.

Cons

The company changes quickly and requires a continual adaptation. In some departements lake of continuum and clear direction at middle management level. Integrating many complex processes in conflict with job activity reality life that reflects a will to impose a standardize way of doing things without including employees knowleddge.

Pros

Goood benefits and company will pay you whatever you ask because they have ZERO luck of filling open positions. Avoid this place at all costs.

Cons

I can write a book for this company.. terrible management without planning of any resources, hire people with high hopes who soon realize after joining that it is a deep hole topped with french culture. Clinical operations dept is under resourced and over worked. Noone wants to stick around because of the bossy culture. There is no respect for each other in this hierarchical model. French office staff technically doesn’t do much except responding to emails after months... Clinical operations team have to take on variety of tasks from purchasing, QA, finance, etc. No team culture or spirit. Everyone is cutting each other to get things done or blame. Highly avoid this place. Even though looks good in first place with nice office in Cambridge, decent pay and benefits— highly avoid because you will want to leave company in next 6 months.
