Pros

Benefits, vacation, some creative leeway in job, flexibility for personal life (kids, doctor appts, etc.).

Cons

Amgen values are just a muth at this point. Truly, not about the patients and certainly not about the employees. Management encourages spying and rewards throwing others under the bus to get ahead. Culture is like "Survivor" with people making strategic alliances and playing the game, your closest confidants ready to climb on your head. As managers, we all knew it. It's management vs. employees and that is strictly enforced. Don't care about your employees. If you don't agree, you are not a team player and are cast off the island.

Pros

Excellent compensation, benefits, and career development opportunities. Strong investment in innovation, patient-focused mission, and world-class manufacturing capabilities. The New Albany site offers exposure to complex biologics operations, large-scale capital projects, and opportunities to work alongside talented and dedicated professionals committed to delivering medicines to patients.

Cons

The culture and leadership experience became increasingly inconsistent during the last year. Decision-making often lacked transparency, priorities shifted frequently, and employee feedback did not always appear to be valued. The people-centered culture that attracted many long-tenured employees seemed to drift, resulting in reduced trust, lower engagement, and increased organizational uncertainty.
