Excellent place to work

Business Outlook

Pros

A job is like a marriage you have to find the right partner for you. This is what I have found in IPSEN, a great partnership. Passionate team of people, decent benefits, nice projects, organic change, I happen to enjoy working within the French culture (I am not French) and this suits me well, I always know where I stand with my colleagues and managers. Good treatment of employees.

Cons

To ensure talent retention, wages may need revision due to the changing economic landscape and a very competitive pharmaceutical environment.

Lovely place to work with supportive structures in place

Business Outlook

Pros

Very encouraging of independence in your job. No micro managing atmosphere and very flexible. Great salary and excellent benefits for staff which really makes you feel valued. Plenty of staff days and evenings and a really great atmosphere. Loads of staff who have worked for the company for years which is a great sign. I'm genuinely really excited and proud to work here and so far feel engaged and challenged in my role. Even though it's a big company it feels quite small and very inclusive.

Cons

None that I can see so far.
