Eli Lilly and Company – Why Work For Us?
We were founded in 1876 by Colonel Eli Lilly, a man committed to creating high-quality medicines that met real needs in an era of unreliable elixirs peddled by questionable characters. His charge to the generations of employees who have followed was this: “Take what you find here and make it better and better.”
More than 140 years later, we remain committed to his vision through every aspect of our business and the people we serve starting with those who take our medicines, and extending to health care professionals, employees and the communities in which we live.
Three long established core values guide Lilly in all that we do:
Integrity: We conduct our business consistent with all applicable laws and are honest in our dealings with customers, employees, shareholders, partners, suppliers, competitors and the community.- Excellence: We pursue pharmaceutical innovation, provide high quality products and strive to deliver superior business results.
- Respect for People: We maintain an environment built on mutual respect, openness and individual integrity. Respect for people includes our concern for all people who touch or are touched by our company: customers, employees, shareholders, partners, suppliers and communities.

Pros
Highly experienced device group,
they build their own products,
highly crossfunctional (several groups are in the device area and are co-located)
investment in innovation,
top management buy in for usability and new ideas,
the culture I experienced allows employees to create their own strategies and treats them as an expert.Cons
People can have a hard time "staying in their lane" and insist on being involved in activities or decisions not relevant to their role.
Not a con, but you have to continuously communicate and involve several cross functions to be successfulEli Lilly and Company 2018-12-21 06:45 PST
