Doesn't RecommendNeutral OutlookNo opinion of CEOI have been working at AstraZeneca full-time (More than 10 years)
Pros
The legacy of being people-centric still prevails, although for how long is questionable
Cons
IT is being heavily centrered on India now and core competencies are being moved away from the hub countries. The new organisation is struggling to understand the new operating model
Advice to Management
work life balance is being seriuosly eroded. A stressed workforce does not give positive outcomes !

Pros
Culture is great, informal, inclusive and passionate. A clear consistent vision and strategy. Furthermore, amazing science is starting to deliver truly groundbreaking medicines.

Because the company is just returning to growth, resourcing is tight so we need to put in the hours!

Keep up the good work, recognise that people are working hard for the company.

Pros
What a fantastic company to work for. Specifically the Manufacturing plant in Sydney is going through an exciting growing phase, with the demand of their products going through the roof. A mid-size manufacturing plant has a huge impact on millions of patients and on AstraZeneca's profitability.
Cons
Sydney is an expensive area to live in, and apart from AstraZeneca there is little other pharmaceutical industry, so your options outside AZ are limited.
Advice to Management
There is a great culture of openness, continuous improvement and accountability that should get you very far

"People Oriented Company"
StarStarStarStarStarI have been working at AstraZeneca full-time
Pros
Upper management is focused on employee's internal growth, which has a great trickle down effect onto mid level management. The company invests in annual meetings for field-based employees to network.
Cons
Newer mid level managers hired recently, with inconsistent management styles and opportunities.
