Sanofi Reviews

Cons

Clock is ticking, there’s a sense of urgency in moving this function forward

Cons

I didn't notice by now.

Cons

high goal setting with limited resources, end goal changes without reflection in resources or timelines.

Cons

All the bureaucracy and politics that come with a company this size. Company is too big. Very Eurocentric.

Cons

Constant restructuring / downsizing (Laval). Great opportunities in GTA.

Cons

Depending on your department budget professional development courses could be an issue.

Cons

being a large pharma company, decision making is slow, and the process is extremely bureaucratic.
Decisions often reflect the interest/good of individuals/groups, instead of the organization

Cons

The pay increases are tiny every year so it's very difficult to grow your salary unless getting promoted, which is also very difficult to do unless you have a higher up in your corner pushing for you. The management seems a little lost about their path forward which leaves a lot of groups in limbo often. The company is a French company so there is a lot of red tape and bureaucracy for even the simplest of decisions.

Cons

no significant cons in my mind

Cons

Cuts in all areas, overextended resources. Less people, more work. Bottom level employees absorb the brunt of the cuts with longer work hours and less work life balance. Too much reliance on contractors instead of retaining full time talent. Raises are minimal for the extension of work required. Middle and lower end managers lack the skill and many are ineffective. Many people are just down right unhappy.
