Strong company culture but stagnant

Pros

Great company in terms of history and presence in industry. Great products and disease areas. Generally inclusive place and a good diverse culture.

Cons

Stagnant in terms of development. Consistently no belief in promoting people to develop within the next stretch role. (You already have to be doing the job without reward or recognition to get an interview). Home/office days arrangement is a fair ask (2-3 days in office) but not enforced consistently due to huge biases such as children and seniority. Senior people have changed to home contracts to avoid this very easily and this should be noted as unfair. Benefits are under market vs other Pharma. The company feels rather bloated in terms of management layers, people in role for too long, and roles that are not aligned to company goals.
