Pros

Good benefits and high salaries. These don’t offset the cons however.

Cons

The commercial organization is managed by a group of socially awkward men who thrive off of those that drink their kool aid, play the political “ballgame” and kiss the ground they walk on. There are some very hard working people at Incyte that are typically pushed aside, minimized and devalued as they don’t engage in managements petty play. The overall environment is extremely toxic and reinforces the concept that men reign supreme in the pharma world. HR is well aware of these pervasive issues however, turn a blind eye to it all.

Pros

Great pay, and great benefits package. Fast paced culture without any major toxicity compared to other companies. Every company has politics, but there is a culture that values self advocacy, and as long as youre likable and easy to work with, politics does not affect your daily work environment. Good growth opportunities too.

Cons

Recently changing management has changed aspects of Incyte that made it family-like and unique. Expect more change as new leadership changes.
