Review from Operations Dept
more interested in promoting people based on their race and gender than talent. meaning a white male stands little chance of promotion.
What is the best part about your compensation package?
health benefits and now as of this year flexible time off.
RSUs is best form of compensation
Review from Operations Dept
Stocks make a huge difference.
Total salary, bonus and other benefits
Medical, dental and pharmacy benefits are one of the best.
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Stocks are not available at all levels. Insurance premiums and deductibles need improvement. As a major pharmaceutical company they could do better with regard to medical benefits.
Higher salary for expensive markets
Evaluations are not based on accomplishments to your yearly objectives. They are force ranked. So if everyone is amazing ; it still requires 20% to be the bottom of the Merrit pool.
