Pros

Most associate to scientist-level team members across the R&D organization are fantastic to work with. Direct managers are typically great to work with as well (some misses as with any organization). Quality of science and business development in some parts of the organization is great.

Cons

Senior management overall is oblivious to what actually drives growth and efficiency in this sort of organization with an overemphasis on managerial and administrative tasks that heavily detract from activities that drive genuine business growth and success. Leadership is also often incompetent in terms of pipeline decision-making and support for workforce growth. Criticism is constantly met with redirection.

Pros

The page is friendly to make an application.

Cons

As an experienced healthcare analytics and commercial leader, I applied to 104 U.S.-based positions at AstraZeneca between 2025 and 2026 that closely matched my background. Despite receiving interviews from peer organizations, I did not receive a single recruiter interaction. I fully understand the competitiveness of hiring, but such a complete lack of engagement raises questions about potential overreliance on AI screening or unintended bias.
