Pros
The industrial postdoc at AZ provides a great opportunity to have a better understanding of how research is conducted within a pharmaceutical company. The projects are aligned with the hot topics in research. Great possibility of networking. Each AZ postdoc has an academic supervisor, which allows the postdoc to keep a foot in academia.
Cons
There is absolutely no guarantee of employment within AZ at the end of the postdoc fellowship. The postdoc projects are no connected to the pipelines which allows the publication of manuscripts but creates a disconnect with other permanent employees in the team.
