Pros

Can meet very nice people, committed and talented

Cons

VP and SVPs layers unabling decision making, High politics conflicts, Many coming from mega companies and applying same processes while Ipsen is small and agility is key. Products old with too many emphasis on new molecules rather than LCM, New technology for administering, enabling home hospitalisation, and closing eyes from competition rather than beating them!

Pros

Good heath benefits, current location is not in the city though a move to Cambridge MA is planned, in general most co-workers were talented and good to work with, easy commute allowed work/life balance.

Cons

Constant change in recent years, base salary in lower range, communication from management to worker needs improvement, issues with having headquarters in a foreign country, no identified "ladders" for development

Not a good place to work.

Pros

Very few - the compensation is within the bounds of reason.

Cons

The company is poorly managed; highly political; unfocused with constantly shifting priorities; and people are not really valued. It seems that the best people leave.
