Pros

Nice office, good benefits, coworkers are friendly to each other.

Cons

No planning from leadership regarding strategy and operation. If there is one in place, then management needs to communicate and share as teams can not contribute without knowing what is required from them and what is the big picture. (“We strive to be the best in class company in the world” does not help much as it is too empty. ) Changes are communicated last minute without stakeholders engagement and alignment. Due to the lack of plan and communication, time and resources are wasted on repetitive meetings with no clearly defined agenda and outcomes; individuals’ job descriptions are changing on a bi-weekly basis; people are held accountable for not delivering the extra projects that are not even within their scope of work and the extra projects are competing with the actual responsibilities. Solutions for systematic issues are to replace the employees and blame them for everything.

Pros

Ipsen continues to offer a mission‑driven environment where teams are genuinely committed to improving outcomes for patients and society, and that sense of purpose shows up in the day‑to‑day culture. Collaboration across functions is strong, and there are meaningful opportunities to contribute to strategy, development, and cross‑functional problem‑solving. We have an amazing team filled with valuable talents.

Cons

The pace of change and evolving priorities can sometimes create ambiguity, and some processes still require tighter alignment to reduce friction and improve consistency. Development pathways and communication around long‑term strategy can feel uneven depending on the team. However, Ipsen remains a place where impact, collaboration, and purpose are real strengths, with room to continue strengthening operational clarity and consistency as the organization grows, which is an achievement.

High leadership turnover and lack of transparency and direction. A few toxic individuals are running the show, promoting inexperienced employees at the expense of competent ones.
