Pros

For several years I enjoyed working at Regeneron. There were many smart people and everyone worked together for the right reasons. In IT, though leadership was a little shaky, there was a true team atmosphere and things got done. Very few people left.

Cons

An IT leadership change was needed. We got it, and things got worse. The new leadership immediately placed all trust in kiss-ups and dismissed many of the people who actually produced. Many that remained just quit. Company Strategy: take a company that's growing and looking for the best people. IT Strategy: Get rid of all the experienced people and hire cheaper less experienced people. Then let Consultants who don't know our business (i.e. Accenture and others dictate the organizational structure and tell us how to run our business. Sounds like a mistake Pfizer made years ago... Very sad to see this happen. We may save a little money, but the level of service to our customers has been severely diminished. Maybe time for a reboot?

Pros

Good pay and benefits. Flexibility of work hours.

Cons

If you're in the wrong group, it's a struggle to get autonomy even when you ask for more oversight of a group or project because micromanaging is an issue. I feel trapped where I am and growth has been stagnant. They also hold a mistake against you for years. Management afraid to give constructive criticism.
