Pros

- The company offers a variety of projects involving cutting-edge technology, providing an engaging and stimulating work environment. - Most people in the technical and business teams are knowledgeable and enjoyable to work with, fostering a collaborative and intellectually enriching atmosphere. - The compensation and benefits packages are OK. Comparable to other companies in the pharmaceutical industry.

Kontras

- There is a significant issue with people management, particularly due to the prevalence of accidental managers who lack interest or skills in managing people. This leads to a lack of support and guidance for employees. - The organizational structure is overly hierarchical and political, which stifles innovation and creates barriers to effective communication and collaboration. - There is no clear path for career advancement, making it challenging for employees to see long-term growth and development within the company. - Since the beginning of 2024, the company has implemented a rigid policy requiring a minimum of three days in the office, regardless of the need for in-person meetings. This inflexibility is detrimental to work-life balance and employee morale. The monitoring of employees through access cards and intranet websites creates a draconian work environment, leading to dissatisfaction and a high turnover rate among talented staff.

Pros

I imagine this is very dependent on line management but I find my team and supervisors to be true champions of a high performing and highly compassionate work culture. I find my work challenging and rewarding, and have had opportunities to learn and grow and be rewarded and recognized for my output. No job is perfect but I’m truly happy to work here and at a time when AZ is truly rising like a rocket.

Kontras

Like any massive global corporate entity, things can sometimes move slowly and it can be challenging to navigate a high number of constantly evolving priorities and initiatives. That being said, AZ is very clear about its north stars and values which makes it possible to prioritize work that has the most impact and alignment with the company’s ambition and business prerogatives. 60% office attendance policy is also a bit funny when oftentimes I am on Teams calls with colleagues sitting in other areas of the world.
