Pros

The parking was relatively close to the building. Compensation was pretty good however not worth it at all

Cons

Genuine warning as I would never want what happened to me at Ipsen, to happen to anyone else. Ipsen specializes in oncology, rare disease, neuroscience. When brought on board for another employee leaving , I saw just why as med info letters and dossiers were being sent out to HCPs treating patients with little to no chance based on information that was 5 years old at a minimum. After updated all 540(-ish) Med info letters as no one else really seemed to care, I was unfortunately assaulted a week after completing this project and getting them back on track. They fired me the day I came back after being assaulted, due to appearances. My injuries did not suit their 'great image'. This was my first job out of school as well. In Summary: they will hire you full time, tell you to move to another state and establish a life; and my personal opinion is all the while they behave selfishly and know they will get rid of these certain positions asap, no matter at what cost.

Pros

Handing notice in with a big smile.

Cons

Bullying enabled by HR. Rampant nepotism. HR has been a big problem here for years. They have invited many new employees to wite positive reviews to cover their complete lack of competence. Toxic environment of “yes” people looking to advance their careers, and stepping on you to get there is fair game. The company has Zero pipeline. The number of good people who have left is a scandal. If you start a job here, keep a diary, after a few years you can leave with a golden handshake like so many in the past!
