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

- My co-workers were great and very friendly, easy to work with - Solid benefits

Cons

- Salary is falling behind other companies in the industry - Advancement opportunities are there, but aren't as common as they should be - CEO has a weird, pathological aversion to allowing WFH flexibility - Upper level management has absolutely no idea what its plan for the future of the company is Constant changes in focus and inability to commit to a plan is leading to many employees leaving the company. This is causing a cascading failure where, because a good manager leaves and the company has no vision or urgency to replace them, the employees under that former manager languish, and then they begin leaving the company too. I can't overstate just how many people have left Incyte lately, and how little has been done to staunch the bleeding. The company just seems to be crippled with indecision on everything, unable to respond to issues that keep growing. While the business will survive for a while, they have no concrete plans for the future. Everything the company puts out ends up being underwhelming at best, and there is no real plan in place to turn things around.
