Ipsen UK is a disaster and will continue to be so....

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Some of the people are great and there are some decent opportunities to develop

Cons

There are a lot of big egos in Ipsen who think they know it all because they read a couple of management books. Because of this hollow and false business environment, the staff have no motivation to deliver the company vision. It's a real shame, because there are some really good people at Ipsen, and in the wider organisation, but the UK is simply poisoned. I am completely appalled at the brutal, uncaring, 'face doesn't fit-lets fire them' attitude that they have there, and it seems there are factions developing between those whose face does fit and those they try and push out but can't because they haven't done anything wrong. That is not the right way to motivate and inspire staff. The high degree of nepotism means only a chosen few will progress.
