Pros

The current disease portfolio can impact positively patient lives

Cons

They treat humans very badly. It can all start very nice, but quite fast, HR and top management can use the opportunity to take advantage of yourself. Bad contractual practices, worst work-life balance, non meaningful projects. There is a French male sexism quite set in the organisation. If you are a women and not french you shouldn’t join
